While taking care of repairs and such, a somewhat confused android wandered into our camp. It explained that it's name was Katon, and that something very strange had happened to it recently. As far as we could gather, it had contracted the virus and somehow managed to resist and eventually destroy it. Some tests verified that it was not carrying the virus. It indicated a desire to join us, and showed some amount of skill with titans, so I decided to welcome it to the team.

After handling these arrangements and doing some familiarization drills with the entire squad, Fanton again contacts us.
Commander,
Our next course of action is clear from the data we retrieved from your last mission. It looks like the Androids are still in the process of mining Duodecimites from the materials in the lava flow. If we can disrupt them during their operation we can learn more about this rebellion and its origins. We want you to capture a small outpost and retrieve any information or Alien Technology.
Captain Lord Fanton
Time to head out.
