We are part of an experiment regarding some function of the coral. This woman is someone involved in it.

We haven't been able to locate the scientists as of yet, but there is some information stored away in a database you should be able to locate on your device. There is also a building on the island which used to be one of theirs. You may wish to look at it for yourself, although we have already gone through it.
