Author's Notes
--------------
1) This level was just something I did to pass the time away -
literally! Don't complain if you don't like it, it's not MEANT to be
anything particularly special.

2) If you really get stuck on a part of the level, check the translator
events - I have tried to include hints and tips in them. Also, try
retracing your steps - there are several closed doors that you pass,
and after you hit certain buttons they will open.

3) I've changed around the elements of almost EVERY monster or weapon
on this level. Don't expect anything to be normal.

4) I recently became a mapper at Capture the Cow. Please visit our web

Background/Storyline
--------------------
Guard duty sucked. I'd done it enough times, and I was sick of it.
Me, Dimitrez, Foster, we'd all done it enough times. Reaching for my
binocs, I stared up into the rocky mountains. Nothing. This REALLY was
pointless. I passed Foster on patrol. "Got a light?" he asked. "Sure."
I replied, reaching for my lighter. Foster took a couple of puffs,
looked me in the eye, handed the lighter back. Suddenly, his face
looked puzzled. I turned to see what he was looking at. I couldn't
make it out, but something was crouching in the shadows, staring right
at us. It didn't surprise me, on an unregistered planet like this there
was bound to be hundreds of undiscovered lifeforms. But then, they
would generally be insects or something - this thing was huge, at least
the size of a normal man. I loaded my gun. Foster did the same. If it
had come any closer, I would've killed it there and then. But instead,
it ran off, in the direction of the mountains. Foster and I looked at
each other. There was no doubt in our minds - WE WERE GOING TO FOLLOW
IT. The last thing I remebered was going round the corner...
