Failsafe greets you cheerfully. "Hello again, Captain!" she says. "We have an interesting metaphysical task ahead of us today!"
She is only too happy to explain. "Years ago, Osiris rescued the Saint-unit we are familiar with from a Vex simulation. In doing so, he created a paradox: the Saint-unit is alive with us now, but simultaneously dead within the Vex network."
The databanks of the dead Saint-14 hold the data Failsafe needs to locate the Conductor's coordinates.
But the only way to access that data is for Saint-14 to interface with it himself.
"Saint-unit will have to download the memories of his other self… experience years of suffering, his own death…" Failsafe says, clearly worried. "But the Conductor must be confronted! I'm sure Saint-unit will understand."
"…won't he?"
