Alerot: We plan to deploy warp loaders to combat this threat. Prospective pilots, submit your applications! Alerot: Our mission is to clear a bed of toxic spongoi before its effusions poison the area. Alerot: Use your warp loaders to destroy the irregular spongoi─our mechs should be up to the task. Alerot: Upon arrival, all personnel should stand by for operation commencement. Take care not to stray from your objective. Alerot: Operation commenced! Pilots, clear away the largest of the spongoi!
