Gordon arrives in broken portal inside a cave. Nihilanth’s voice is heard again: “Lie, you all lie, you all die.” This asteroid is in a new area of Xen. It is cloudy, and there are two suns. Grunts stand at the top of two caves, ready to call in a ship and drop off reinforcements when they spot Gordon. Vortigaunts work around two devices that continually push cylinders into the ground, ignoring Gordon if the alarm has not sounded. Past them and a tentacle creature, in a large cave, a gargantua smashes through the rocks. Gordon gets past the garg, and jumps over a pit into the next area. A ship flies past as Gordon gets by three more tentacles. Beyond some additional grunts, there is another portal device. He steps in. | Gordon arrives in broken portal inside a cave.

Gordon finds himself in an out-of order area of an alien facility. “Alone, aren’t you alone? Aren’t you alone?” asks Nihilanth. Out of that area, a large group of vortigaunts is working on machinery that pushes barrel-like pods containing grunts around on conveyors. The packaged grunts are pushed through fields of energy, and | Gordon finds himself in an out-of order area of an alien facility. “Alone, aren’t you alone? Aren’t you alone?” asks Nihilanth. Out of that area, a large group of vortigaunts is working on machinery that pushes barrel-like pods containing grunts around on conveyors. The packaged grunts are pushed through fields of energy, and dropped into vats of strange liquid. Again, the vortigaunts do not attack Gordon unless they are threatened. Climbing through the machinery, Gordon reaches the conveyors, and jumps into the next room, avoiding a vat. More packaged grunts are stored here, and some are being pushed through more fields on conveyors, and shot with a green beam. Gordon passes the controllers and more vortigaunts, who are now alert and violent. He finds a vent-like passage, and crawls through it, into a large chamber. | ||
The chamber is one large hollow tube. Several spinning elevators take him up, past more vortigaunts, controllers and packaged grunts. At the top of the chamber, a wheel spins in the air. In the middle, there is a portal. Gordon takes an elevator up, and jumps in. | The chamber is one large hollow tube.
