Hello, Control Team?

Control Team? Are you there? Is this thing calibrating properly? Hello?

Image
There - this is better. Control Team? The test was a failure. Transport to dimension 134340 did not succeed. I have been transported to an unknown dimension. My ship and weaponry have gone missing.

God, where the hell am I?

Where are the other three?

Okay, so what do you want from me?

"We want you to help us defend the camp from the next attack. We'll let you have the gun, but you just need to defend the camp. Okay?"
