Dialogue
Intro
- Shani: Nassir. Nassir!
- Nassir: Boss!
- Nassir: (Noticing you, he tosses a grenade (pin still in) to you) Hey, hey, hey, the cavalry! Play ball!
- Nassir: Nice catch! You like to play ball? Come. Come! I show you.
- Nassir: C4, good shit, Russia made. We manage to get shipment through, now it is my job to prep it, like Sly in "Demolishing Man."
- Shani: I need you to start packing up, Nassir.
- Nassir: She is, how you say, "tough cookie"? It is in her blood. Our blood.
- Nassir: We are Marya, the young warriors, and we die hard, like Bruce Willis. Yippi-ki-yay, motherfucker!
- Nassir: Our enemy, they use the water pumps to spread their black disease. They pump cancer into the water, into the soil, the food supply.
- Nassir: Soon everybody will be like them, like the walking dead, with octopus fingers in their head. Very, very bad.
- Nassir: But now we have something very, very good. We will disable the pumps, stop the pollution.
- Nassir: BOOM! Just like Bollywood movie, with happy ending and musical number!
- Nassir: (battle cry)

Report
Dragon
The pumping station was a key method of distributing the Filth in the region. It was causing our enemies to swell. Because of its importance, many of the cultists were bound to it. Now, thanks to you, they will experience the bliss of being lost.
The weak are all bound to something: the sun worshippers to the currents of the black river; the Marya to their enemies and their past; Egypt to its ancient gods; the other factions to each other.
But you are not bound, for you are free to follow the path of the Dragon.
Continue to follow it.
Illuminati
The Marya need to learn to manage resources. At the first signs of Filth, you secure key facilities and distribution channels. You don't strut your ideals. Someone has to be pragmatic out there. Clearly that means us.
The pumping station was a key action area, but we need to go after the source.
Continue to use the Marya to gain information and take bullets, but don't get drawn into their illusions.
Fun fact: the riverbeds in the area connect to the Nile. Eventually, those waters connect to the Atlantic, which connects to our bottom line.
Templar
I applaud the Marya's sense of historical responsibility. I truly do. They heed the call of tradition in an age that does not encourage it. However, their sense of the big picture is limited. For them, tradition is local, entirely tied up in Anti-Atenism. For us, it is global in scope.
Where they see a pumping station, we see a chain unfurling.
Maintaining order will require a more sober touch than the Marya are capable of providing. Not to worry, there will be time for pints after all means of distributing the apocalypse are secure.

Notes:
- It isn't marked so on the map, but instead of leaving the Marya Encampment by the way you came in, go out the back, through the Wadi of the Crescent
- Also, be careful of stepping on landmines in the area
- At each point, you can either kill the Spotter or use the Spotter's Radio to disable it
- Try to watch the pattern of the Watchers patrols. If they see you, they will run off and return with 2 or 3 additional Born Again Atenists, which may be more than a solo player can handle
