These are the expected rewards for a level 38 player. Higher level players receive dynamically adjusted rewards.

Event start: Mad Scientist Tork: Hmm. The machine has already exceeded its safety parameters. How exciting!; Assistant Marpi: It's not generating power, sir. It's generating angry elementals! Please, shut it down.; Mad Scientist Tork: Don't be silly. If I intended to shut it down, I'd have included an off switch.; Assistant Marpi: Then if I may suggest an alternative? Help! Somebody! Anybody! Help!; Assistant Marpi: Oh, dear. I can try to fix this thing, but I'll need to concentrate. And I can't concentrate and kill things at the same time.

Mad Scientist Tork: Exterminate the out-of-control elementals, please. We have research to attend to.

Event success: Assistant Marpi: I hope that's not what my boss intended to have happen. In any case, catastrophy[sic] averted.; Assistant Marpi: Thanks for your help. Tork is brilliant, but not always practical.

Event failure: Mad Scientist Tork: Marpi! Marpi! I heard the explosion. (gasp) What have they done to you? And my lab?; Mad Scientist Tork: Marpi! Are you okay?; Assistant Marpi: I think so, but my head feels funny. Does it feel funny to you?; Mad Scientist Tork: No time for diagnoses. Grab a broom. I can't invent when I'm up to my ankles in dust bunnies and elemental carcasses.

This event will fail if Marpi dies.
Since air elementals use area of damage attacks very frequently, which will constantly keep Marpi in combat, the event is very hard to complete if damage from player is not high enough.
