Default The Progenitor's slay message isn't quite right

I note that the current slay message seems to be taken from this out of era youtube video:

As per this thread:

https://www.project1999.com/forums/a.../t-129006.html

However, I ran across an in-era screenshot (Aug 2001 or earlier) with the Progenitor's slay message and it is different:

https://web.archive.org/web/20010804....com/prog2.jpg

Text from the screenshot is:

"Beware creations of this one! Powerful beings threaten to rouse The Sleeper! This one has ceased to function."

Obviously I can't jump into ST to verify but if the text is wrong as above, you now have the correct text. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Oh and since I'm here and this is new, I found a partial ShowEQ capture of ST from 2001, screenshot only though. Probably not any new info but you can check against it I guess.

I wasn't around but could this be because Sleeper has been awoken and so the above message would've changed as it'd be contextually inappropriate?

That would make sense, come to think of it.
