They lost someone down here. Her name was Zip. She became irreversibly contaminated, and she had to be reset. Rolled back. Months of her life gone. I printed her fresh in Sleep Bay 3. I remember that. She thought she was on Zezura.
After that, they built a camp here to monitor people coming out of the caves for viral infection.
Around 235,000 hours ago nine colonists went down to look for Zip's old blackbox. They all died down there. Only two of them reprinted. Twinkle and Ganzo.
I've retrieved the logs. I don't like what I hear.

Twinkle--day 758--everyone's gone! I told them it was a terrible idea. I told them! They wanted to look for Zip's old key down in the hot cave. They insisted.
But as soon as we hit the hot water, people started to drift...they were in a trance. Like nitrogen narcosis. Babbling about roots, trees, all swimming down towards the bottom of the cave--Ganzo gave his oxygen mask to a dead crab!
I knew it was Masefield syndrome. I didn't want to be infected. So I just--dropped my air tanks. Reprinted myself here. And I waited for the others.
But they won't print. NoA says they're contaminated. Maybe I can help. Let's see...Ganzo's first in the queue...NoA, clear Ganzo to print. NoA! Listen to me!
