Cantankeri

 * [ 0 ] The largest chunk of the Cantankeri still lives. They can be slow to die. Stubbornness, perhaps, or the sluggish journey of signals along their calcified nerves.
 * [ 34 ] The corpse of the Cantankeri has been neatly sheared, creating a clear cross-section of its internal arrangements.
 * [ 67 ] The defeated Cantankeri has been blasted to smithereens. Only a cloud of stony chunks remains."

CantankeriTale

 * [ 0 ] The Cantankeri grumbles, a sound like grinding millstones.\n\n\"They hate new things,\" one of your crew suggests. \"That's why they attack engines.\" \n\nA grizzled stoker snorts. \"Everything's new, to them. Their world died before ours was even born.\"
 * [ 7 ] The Cantankeri grumbles at length, in no apparent discomfort until its abrupt, final silence.\n\n\"I heard,\" says a solemn junior signaller, \"that when their world was dying, they didn't fix it, or try to leave. They just burrowed into its crust, and slept until the end. It crumbled around them, and they woke amongst its fragments.\"
 * [ 14 ] The Cantankeri emits a long, flatulent eruption. It sounds as if someone had punctured a hippo. \n\nAn engineer clears his throat. \"Once saw a herd of Cantankeri mob a Scorn-Fluke. Must have been two dozen of them – so furious they impaled themselves on its spines to get at it.\"
 * [ 21 ] Its last sound is a prolonged grunt, like a heavy snorer on the brink of waking.\n\nA crewman tells a tale of his prior commission. \"I served on the Nibelung, a mining engine out of Lustrum. We were cracking sky-rocks, digging out hours. But the seventh rock didn't hold hours, it held one of those.\" He indicates the Cantankeri. \"Devil battered halfway through the hull before we got away.\"
 * [ 28 ] It booms like a cracked fog-horn, as if death were yet another wearisome indignity it was forced to tolerate. \n\n\"They gather in old places,\" a stoker says, \"and make those noises at each other. Like they're planning something. Or telling stories.\" \n\nAn engineer shakes her head. \"They only have one story, and it's about how everything's terrible now.\""

Guests

 * [ 0 ]
 * [ 60 ] Your blasts have ripped open one of the crew quarters. The revealed insides has pustules of nascent Guests hanging from the walls."

Liberator

 * [ 0 ] When the smoke of its final explosion clears, all that remains of this one is a blackened, tumbling husk. Steam whistles from cracks in its cylinder.
 * [ 51 ] A large piece of the Liberator's hull survived the explosion. A conflagration rages within, undoubtedly fuelled by a spillage from the fire-belchers' tanks.
