A message left by Sophie indicates that she pursued Nahema towards the World Tree. The reasoning for this is somewhat unclear due to a mismatch between the databank transcript and the actual in-game audio:  +*   The transcript claims that Nahema is planning to poison the World Tree, and that Sophie is trying to prevent this in order to preserve the biosphere—which seems quite out-of-character for both of them.+*   The audio, meanwhile, states that Nahema is trying to permanently exterminate humans from Proteus by unspecified means, and that Sophie wants to both stop Nahema's plan and destroy the World Tree herself.+ +The narrative provided by the audio is likely the correct one, given that Sophie also expresses a desire to destroy the Tree when talked to in the Tadpole Pens biobed. This is further supported by a comment from one of the developers, who stated that in-game text had to be locked in long before the voice acting was finished, and thus any changes made later on to the voice script were unable to be properly reflected in the text transcripts.+  ## Dialogue   Sophie's ghost in the Tadpole Pens Biobed can be spoken to and has a wide range of responses. Her dialogue can be found at NoA/Tadpole Pens.   ## Relevant Databank Entries  +### SOPHIE: In pursuit of Nahema+ +![Alterra](Alterra.png)+ +> To any survivors of the Coral Gardens Habitat —+>+> I am pursuing Nahema towards the World Tree.
