TheEmergency Evacuation Area is a room on theFrigateOrpheon. Samus first enters it throughDeck Alpha Access Hall and later exits it intoDeck Alpha Umbilical Hall.

Properties[edit |edit source]

The room is largely taken up by the carcass of a deadParasite Queen, butSamus can still get around it. The dead Parasite Queen's mouth is on fire while she is in the room, and the flames can damage Samus if she contacts them directly. A number of normalParasites can also be found here, feeding on the remains of two of the three deadSpace Pirates, one of which is still impaled by the Queen's leg. There is one Pirate that is still alive, although gravely injured. It will attempt to fire at Samus, but she can defeat it with ease.

The room was used by Space Pirates as a point to rally and escape in the event of an evacuation. During the emergency on FrigateOrpheon that brought Samus toTallon IV,^[1] some Pirates managed to escape by enteringescape pods and jettisoning them some 6 hours prior to her arrival. Three escape pods were reported as launched, with a Space Pirate base on Tallon IV as the destination.

This room is also the first place Samus encounters the mutagenic substancePhazon. There are several biohazard containers full of Phazon ready to be shipped to different areas of the frigate, the scans of which are the first mention of the substance by name.
