Over the last week, Roland and Eaos have been busy adjusting to life on this new planet, so I've been exploring the Divide with Crichton. Deep in the trenches, we paved our way exploring the mucky dirty pits filled with Bane and grassy plateaus filled with strange native wildlife. Occasionally we were caught off guard by a convoy of predators. One at a time we can handle pretty well, but four of them can be overwhelming even with my medical skills. I had to resuscitate Crichton after she took some nearly terminal wounds on more than one occasion. We learned to listen for the high pitched squeal of their jet engines, so we could avoid them when in packs.

I learned that the power of the Logos is important in more ways than I imagined before. It seems Logos knowledge is needed to be able to access some of their most strongly kept secrets, including a Logos that I finally was able to access the other day. It seems the Bane's control of this planet is focused on gaining Logos information, although they don't seem to be as receptive to the knowledge within it. Even at the Pravus research facility which we raided two weeks ago, they didn't seem to be able to harness the power of Logos directly and instead required machines to be able to gain the information stored within it.

One of the most interesting landmarks within the Divide is the Hydro Electric Plant which generates power from the run off from Eloh Creek. I'm proud to see that even in the foreign land we're living in, we're learning from the mistakes we made on Earth by focusing on renewable energy like hydro electric power. It's why the Bane focus their attacks on the plant, they know that if they attack our power we could be crippled. This is why when I hear of a Bane attack on the plant, I'm right there defending it.

Tactics, Logos, and lessons of the past, knowing all these things gives us power. Knowledge we can share with each other. Power we can all gain. Power to defeat the Bane.
