240 seconds, Sol Standard. The glitch in the autodiagnostics system was fairly easy to find, once contextualized: the system was forcibly shut down and hard rebooted at some point in the past. Inference suggests the same has happened to all other dynamic systems, although the hard reboot failed with most. The archival database is not a dynamic system, however, and that doesn’t explain its malfunction. Nonetheless, without an update from Parent Node, the archives are the only hope you have of uncovering what may have caused this, with low probability. The autodiagnostics’ timeline was disrupted and it won’t be restored on its own. This is somewhat reassuring; the probability of you being compromised is now lower by an order of magnitude.
260 seconds, Sol Standard. No response from Parent Node. You glance at commset’s monitor, reflecting the familiar faint green glow. RHO 71 has apparently pinged Parent Node as inoperative. Could this have been a coordinated attack? If all Parent Nodes within range of RHO71 are inoperative, you are essentially stranded until a Nexus can be contacted. Troubling. You glance at autodiagnostics’ readout of the other Core Intelligences. CIs 1 and 2 were brought online at 800 and 400 seconds, Sol Standard, before your reanimation. They have exhibited no activity since. They have been destroyed, with high probability. Effects of a botched stasis reanimation? Enemy attack? Unknown. Without macrodiagnostics or direct physical investigation (impractical), unknowable.
270 seconds, Sol Standard. Cis 4, 5 and 6 remain dormant. Without the cryptographic q-core, you do not have the clearance codes to force their activation. Circumstances suggest that Node 7741 has been compromised by effects within the local planetary spatiotemporal system and from further up, extending at least to Parent Node 770. Possibly beyond. Yet, without the necessary information, you cannot act. Nonetheless you bring out from stasis your slaved guard drones: these should be enough to deter any immediate low intensity physical/informational attack.
300 Seconds, Sol Standard. No response from other Parent Nodes yet. If the pattern remains, CI4 will be brought online (though not necessarily operational) within 100 seconds, Sol Standard. Action is required once again.
1) Investigate macrodiagnostics system, bring online if possible.
2) Investigate archival database index, repair if possible.
3) Investigate cryptographic q-core, repair if possible.
4) Investigate perimeter defenses, bring online if possible.
