Vetna Rtusna (story)

Vetna Rtusna, (invetsi for Godly Rest) is the first side-story of Story III: The Light of Jehuty.

Summery
The first Invetgi sighting wasn't in S.R. 505/3118, it was in S.R. 489/3102, as a scouting ship, known as the AS/S-001-03 Ma'at Scouter, with ten scientists and three Iusaasets on board. At first, all they found were rocks, until finding the Vetna Rtusna. The scientists scanned it and found life inside the ship, sending the Iusaasets to rescue the life and to collect the technology for later study. One of the Iusaasets, Connor Dynames, hid a AS/W-007 Kauket Pistol onto himself in case the life is hostile. He was right as Invetgi start to kill the two other Iusaasets, leaving Connor alone as the only human on board Vetna Rtusna.

Ignoring communicatuions from Ma'at, Connor realizes the ship is made up of 86% Dierainium, and he starts planning to blow the ship up from the inside, escaping on Ma'at. He's too late, however, as the scientists, after scanning the things being brought back to Ma'at, left it and went on board Vetna Rtusna. They join Connor, but not for long as Invetgi start picking them off one by one, leaving Connor with only one scientist. He gives the man the Kauket and leaves him while he figures out a way of destroying the ship. He finds explosives in a room off to the corner and brings them with him to where the remaining scientist is.

Both set up the rig, but right after finishing, one Invetgi kills the scientist, leaving Connor to defend himself. He keeps the invetgi from touching the explosive rig, but gets stabbed through the chest, falling on one of the explosives. He quickly pulls out a Ptah grenade and detonates it, making the rig explode and destroy Vetna Rtusna, killing Connor, the invetgi, and senting a damaged Ma'at elsewhere.

Results in Main Story
The Ma'at has information on the invetgi's technology. Though lost, it can be found in Dio Luna, as it crashed-landed onto one of the asteroids.
