“Begin Transmission. Well I’m down at the deepest point of the chasm where we found the heating pipe buried. I’ve been climbing down it, on the power lines, for the last four days. I’ve got enough food, and I can scavenge moss off of the walls if I absolutely need. There are still trickles of water here, so I’ve got adequate supplies. If I continue down a few more miles I should reach where the power electrode ends. End Transmission.
Begin Transmission. I’ve reached the end of the electrodes. I had to detour to go around them. The scientists were right there definitely is a live connection down there but it’s not from any chemical source. There is actually electricity flowing up straight the wall from below. The chasm continues farther than we had imagined. Whatever is down there is strong enough to be sending pure electricity up to the end of our line. If we lower it more the efficiency of the line should greatly increase. I’ve got supplies to keep going, so I’ll climb down until I can’t estimate a decent chance of survival for the trip up. End Transmission.
Begin Transmission. I’ve reached a point where I’m finding defensive devices set up. They are the same kind we first encountered when we escaped form the wolfblooded hundreds of years ago. Primitive by our standards, but still active. They didn’t fire at me and I was able to get them shut off. I’m noticing more embedded wreckage at this point. It seems like the original ship penetrated farther than we had imagined. It must have broken in half. I am finding evidence of alien cannon technology. My talisman has picked up magical residues as well. It seems like First word magic which means god elves or Animalia. The style seems to indicate Animalia. I’ll collect samples and bring them back, but I’d hazard a guess that the theory of the crashed alien ship seem to lean to the idea that it was shot down. It also looks like it split in half upon impact and there is more technology deeper down. I’m continuing on. End Transmission.
Begin Transmission. I seem to have found some old Aruna artifacts. It looks like children’s story spheres made out of clay. I’m not sure why they would be down here though. It also looks like an abandoned cave. The lightning is still pouring through the main cavern, but off to the side there are a few cubby holes in side paths. One of them had the toys. Their look to be some rudimentary spell scribblings on some of the story balls. It might mean that we had been this far down previously, but the information and timeline doesn't match up. The laser on my talisman reads it at much much older than the time we have recorded as first contact. I assume I might be at sea level by now, maybe a little underneath it. It’s possible that Aruna were here before our expedition came to unearth the ship and we escaped from the wolfblooded. I’ll keep looking farther on. I scanned one of the balls. It had a rudimentary fire spell on it. I’ve got it in my Talisman now. Hopefully I won’t have to use it. End Transmission.
Begin Transmission. Oh Taeos. You won’t believe it. Down here at the deepest level I found a door. Oh god, it’s horrible. All around me are bodies in, in metal open coffins. They were hooked up to something. There is a great long hallway. It looks like Aruna clothing, or well pre-Aruna clothing. Maybe there was a pre-aruna slave expedition before us to mine out the lower half of the ship. If there was it looked like the ships previous inhabitants weren’t quite dead yet. The hallway actually reminds me of some of the Gene extraction beds we use. Only these don’t seem to be to that purpose. The bodies are all bloated, and look almost . . . inflated, and then collapsed . . . Farther up there seems to be a light. It looks like (retching sound) . . . (more retching) End transmission.
Begin Transmission. The next room contains a central ball like structure. Some kind of big, egg. . .of sorts. It looks like, like people are oozing out. They’re not crawling or being pushed, but oozing. Only they’re huge. Too big to be people and deformed, completely deformed like they had botulism or their bodies were blown up like balloons, but only in certain places. I’m not sure what or why but beyond is another door. It almost looks like giants. If they took our genetic samples then it might explain why the upper ships defenses killed the wolfblooded, but not our ancestors. I’m going through the next door. End transmission.
Begin Transmission. I’ve found where the energy comes from. It’s huge. Beyond huge. Much bigger than Ecclesium. The thing, I can only see part of it. It’s like a human in shape, maybe. At least what I see looks like a Knee connected to some kind of torso. Maybe an elbow, but that bit looks like a foot. I can’t tell what it is. Maybe stone, or metal or plastic or flesh calcified and burned? More like a bugs shell, but spongy in parts. The energy is coming off of that. Big leaps of energy, all the way up to the electrodes. The thing, could it have been one of the Aliens? Is this what the tribe at the base of the mountain calls Nephillim? This is huge. I’ll be coming up now. It’s got me a little spooked down here. It almost looks like there is an eye farther up. Heh. I must have been down here too long. It almost looks like . . . like it’s . . .ope~n~n~n~n~ End Transmission.”
