| − | :An iron hatch handle recovered from a Spiral Knight drop pod.
| + | |
| − | ::A Spiral Knight drop pod is equipped with an emergency hatch that is opened manually by the Knight within. Once pulled, the handle breaks free of the door as it bursts open, remaining in the Knight's hand. Some Knights keep these handles as a memento. They are a reminder that some doors, once opened, cannot be closed; just as some missions, once accepted, offer no turning back.

| − | :The Hatch Handle artifact was originally obtained by purchasing the now-outdated [[Starter Pack]], it may now be obtained by purchasing the [[Deluxe Starter Pack]].

| − | | + | |
| − | ::Someone out there has it in for me. While in recon training I was routinely frustrated by the limits of the training simulations- I knew they were not real. I craved the open air, soil beneath my feet and the wind. I wanted the challenge only the wild can offer.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ::The Skylark crash was horrible, and the resulting situation even worse. But when Captain Ozlo selected me for this squad I was excited- there is no greater wild than what this planet offered. Is that wrong?
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ::But then as we stepped off of that first elevator platform and sunlight warmed our faces it began to sink in: the grinding of gears, the buzzing of enormous lights, the smell of smoke and the steam-filled air... the wild we had stepped into was not real. It was another simulation.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ::More ironic still is how little of my training actually applies now. This world is crazy, the terrain changes constantly. I think this squad would have been better off with another guardian instead of me. At least then they would be better prepared to fight whatever they didn't see coming.

| − | | + | |
| − | ::Grantz took the full blast of a rocket twice, reacting only with a stagger as if he had discovered a stone in his boot. Sometimes I think that beneath his iron suit is a body of equally heavy iron. It wouldn't surprise me.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ::Parma has been hard on herself, saying that she should have scouted the trap. But how can you scout that is ever in flux? How can you be sure that the path ahead is still safe if you can never be sure it's still even there?

| − | | + | |

| − | ::Legions of shambling dead have attacked us here, relentless in their defense of this place. Their broken, burnt frames crumbling and rising once more, ready for another battle. And just as they refuse to fall, so does the burning ruin around them. It is almost as if this whole realm is trapped in a single moment from some forgotten time, never changing, never allowing itself to finally turn to ash.

| − | ::You can feel it in the smoldering air—an eternal will holding this place together, never allowing its inhabitants to rest. No creature deserves such a fate, it is beyond my understanding.
