Idle Quotes
- (Near Staff Dormitory North Area)
- Porcelume Worker: Hmm, where did I stash those porcelume pieces I swiped last time?
- Porcelume Worker: Man, everything looks exactly the same everywhere!!
- (Near West Side Plaza)
- Porcelume Worker: Man, such a nice outpost, and now it's just abandoned.
- Porcelumex Staff: Could've been worse. At least the company hasn't gone under yet, and we've still got food on the table.
- (Near Staff Dormitory South)
- Marcel Files NPC: Who'd actually come out to the middle of nowhere to collect data?

- (Near Old Commercial Building)
- Porcelume Staff: Of course we're taking the "Fireproof" storage route. If anything happens to this Porcelume shipment along the way, can you handle that responsibility?

Interactions
Interactables
- (Interact with Bus Stop near Staff Dormitory North)
- The bus stop at the Workers' Community Center, it has witnessed the unchanging rhythm of life in Aerospace City.
- In the morning, crowds rush from here to the factory area and research buildings; in the evening, they gradually disperse under the amber streetlights, restoring the tranquility.
- Now, only the weathered seats stand alone, as if still waiting for someone's return.
- (Interact with Electric Cable near Staff Dormitory North)
- Massive electrical cables. You don't often see something of such "beefy" specs like these.
- These cables, extending like veins, form the electrical backbone of the entire Aerospace City — with rational planning and stable output, supporting every moment of production and life for tens of thousands of people here.
NPC Interactions

- Raider: Ah... no, no need. Sorry.
- (Talk to Worried Worker near West Side Plaza)
- Worried Worker: Ugh, I can't live like this anymore. Not a single veggie in this lunch box.

- Jia'ao: In the Hollow? Sneaking around like that? And you've got the nerve to talk back to me?
- Masheng: Oh? Is being cocky against the law? Show me which law says you can't have swag!
- (Talk to Porcelumex Staff near West Side Plaza)
- Porcelume Worker: May the spirits protect us. Safe mining ahead! May the spirits protect us. Safe mining ahead!
- Porcelume Staff: Yo bro, what are you mumbling about? Stop being all weird.
- Porcelume Worker: Whoa, whoa, show some respect to the spirits. You shouldn't say stuff like that out loud.
- Porcelume Staff: Heh, if there really were gods out there, my bros working their asses off in the mines wouldn't be having accidents.
- Porcelume Worker: Hey, you, scoot over. I'm afraid you'd jinx me.

- (Talk to HIA Investigation Captain near West Side Plaza)
- HIA Investigation Captain: Get ready to move out. We've only got 12 hours approved for data observation, so we need to make every minute count.
- HIA Investigator: Don't sweat it, Captain. The route's been checked out; no Ethereals to worry about.
- HIA Investigation Captain: I'm not worried about Ethereals. It's those TOPS clowns I'm keeping an eye on.
- HIA Investigator: Didn't we already give them the heads up?
- HIA Investigation Captain: If you think that would make things smooth, you don't know TOPS at all...
- (Talk to Uncle Hong near West Side Plaza)

- "Nervous Porcelume Worker": Heck yeah, time to get rich!

- (Talk to Common Worker [sic] near Staff Dormitory South)
- Porcelume Staff: Hey, did you know there's a space center on this island?
