The hallucination/hypnosis begins to wear off, and those who saw a deep spaced monster realize it was only another hallucination machine made by the eorna.  And it protects the planetary defense system.  The eorna had told you about this, and how to activate it.

S'Krllk is busy activating the defense system. If successful, it should prove very helpful in the fight against the Sathar.

But you have lost precious time!  The robots are approaching from the northern halls, and this room is a dead end.  You will have to quickly hurry around the hall if you have any desire to head off a battle.

Then S'Krllk finishes.  Lights flare up, and your translators interpret the following:  "Planetary Defense System activated."

"Well at least thats something! Perhaps the robots will stop fighting us now?" Kri'lik looks about nerviously and shifts his laser rifle around a bit hoping for bit of good luck.

"Um, I don't think so," Frisky says, "Since they were guarding the room with combat bots."  He runs around the other hall to the door on the east side, looking behind to make sure the others follow.

Desiraye breathes a heavy sigh of relief when she hears that S'Krllk successfully activated the defense system.  She knows that they can't defeat the robots and at least now that the rest of the planet has a chance to fight the Sathar.

"I'm hoping your right.  I think this is where we make our final stand or surrender."

You head down the middle hall.  The robots reach the edge of the other hall and enter the worship room with the statue as you make your way down the hall.  You see a door to your left as you go down the hall and then you go into the room straight ahead (9).



There is a horrible din coming from this area, even above the constant humming sound which fills all the corridors.  As the door slides open you see seven huge machines which fill up the roughly 8 meter square room. These machines are apparently fully automated; there are no robots or other beings in the room. Along the east side of the room is a large rack filled with robot parts. From time to time an arm will extend from the nearest machines and place a new robot part on the rack.

It appears to be a robot manufacturing area.  The exits are as shown on the map.  The combat robots have reached the end of the hall behind you.

"So what's it to be? A swift jog back to the surface or a final desperate stand against overwhelming odds?  I'm up for the jog, whose with me?"
