=== {{UL|Stop the Rikti transdimensional expedition before the alternate Circle discovers our Earth}} ===
'''Briefing'''

[[Portal Corporation]] scientists have traced a [[Rikti]] portal transition to a nearby alternate Earth. This particular case could be extremely dangerous. The world has been classified as a prohibited dimension. Our probe teams discovered that the [[Circle of Thorns]] analog of that dimension successfully annihilated all human life on the world except a slave sub-class in the year 1968 AD. I have been authorized by ask for your assistance to stop the Rikti transdimensional expedition before the alternate Circle discovers our Earth.

I will warn you, this world has been classified as extremely hazardous. If you accept, I recommend that you take appropriate precautions.

'''Mission Acceptance'''

It is unlikely that the Rikti knew about conditions on this world when they opened a portal to it. This does not change the imperative that the world must be sealed off from ours at this time. Your main objective will be to disrupt the portal generation apparatus the Rikti have utilized to access this world. That will cut off Rikti access to that dimension, or at least disrupt any possible corridors from there to the Rikti home Earth. If those devices have been hidden too well, you can also concentrate on hunting down all Rikti operatives present at their transfer site on that world, as well as any hostile local residents they have come in contact with.

'''Debriefing'''

The Rikti expedition has been disrupted, and we have sealed that world from ours for the time being. Several refugees made it back through the portal before you closed it. They are receiving care and aid.

There are many worlds that turned out worse than ours. It is hoped that after our world has had a chance to rebuild further we'll be able to provide aid and assistance to such worlds, but for now we must work to preserve our safety. It is sad to seal them off, but often necessary.<noinclude>[[Category:Angus McQueen Missions]]</noinclude>
