Eclipse Phase “Think Before Asking” The Final Chapter: The Question and the Fire
With Fornjot unraveling around them and the oracle no longer content to stay boxed away in nested simulspaces, Vector, Nila, and Maxine race to salvage what they can: egos, evidence, and whatever future Firewall might still have. As they uncover what the oracle truly wants—and what it’s willing to do to get it—the sentinels are forced to confront a final choice between impossible options: knowledge or safety, duty or survival. In the end, the fate of a moon, a weapon, and a newborn god of code comes down to a single decision and how much of themselves they’re willing to burn to see tomorrow.
About the Chronicle
Think Before Asking is an Eclipse Phase scenario (originally written by Anders Sandberg and adapted to second edition) run on the scum swarm Failance Recourse, a tangled mass of salvaged habitats drifting around Saturn. In this story, the player characters are Firewall sentinels embedded in a lawless, reputation-based society full of experimental morphs, illicit tech, and fringe philosophy.
Firewall suspects that a quantum-triggered antimatter device—capable of being detonated instantly from anywhere, by someone who can never be traced—has been smuggled into or through the swarm. The chronicle follows Vector, Nila, and Maxine as they navigate scum politics, shady pilots, and fragile social networks, trying to locate the weapon, understand who built it, and decide what to do with something too dangerous for anyone to own. It’s a mix of investigation, social engineering, and transhuman horror, steeped in Eclipse Phase’s trademark questions about identity, power, and how far you go to stop an existential threat.
