LOADING RECORDING.
T▋ME ΙΖ:ΩΙ Ι/Ζ▋/Ι▋A▋
[The feed turns on. It seems to be a recording that the nanomachines are picking up - but the sound is distorted. The voices echo and the lighting is dim at best. There's a persona lighting the the way, but most of what you can see and hear is water. Rows and rows of waterfalls are reflecting the reddish night of the 13th hour. Strange glowing mushrooms provide most of the light that isn't from the four figures walking forward.
The video stops and static causes it to skips ahead. The roar of the waterfalls is now even closer, and the camera shakes constantly to the rhythm of footsteps.
The area they are at it gigantic. More than forty feet, the giant robotic figure behind them is not having any troubles moving along with them. It is easy to guess that this is Brainstorm. The cloaked figure, Orpheus. The pointed hat, McGonagall. Someone else behind her, and it looks to be Q.
For some reason half of the Seven are here during the 13th hour...]
▋░░░▋▋▋░▋▋▋ don't like ▋▋░▋░ look ▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░▋. ▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░▋ door suddenly appear ░░░▋▋▋░▋▋▋▋░▋░an ▋▋░▋░ of the open ▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░ 13th hour ▋▋░░░▋░▋▋░ ill omen.
[That sounded like Orpheus' voice]
While ▋░▋▋░ I would agree ░▋▋▋░▋▋▋▋░, ░▋▋▋░▋▋▋▋░▋▋░▋░▋▋ cannot wait,▋▋░▋░▋▋▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░▋░▋░▋▋▋▋░▋░ opportunity will ░▋▋▋▋░▋▋░▋░. Fortune favors the bold,░▋▋▋▋░▋▋░▋░. ▋░▋░▋▋▋▋░▋░▋ perhaps another message ▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░▋░▋▋░░░▋▋▋░░░ ghostly fellow...
[And that was Q...]
Regardless, ▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░▋░▋▋░░░▋▋▋░░ carefully, lest this is a trap. ▋░▋▋░░░▋▋▋░ enough bloodshed ░▋▋░░░▋░▋▋░░ tournaments ▋▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░▋░▋░▋...
[Mcgonagall]
▋▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░▋░▋░▋ is just one blasted surprise after another. ▋░░░▋░▋▋░░░▋▋▋░▋▋░░░▋░ checked to ▋▋░▋░▋▋░░░▋ fool of a mayor ▋░░░▋░▋▋░░░▋▋▋░▋▋░░░ spreading any more asinine rumors.
[If the condescension didn't give Brainstorm away, the mechanical resonation of his voice would have.]
▋▋░▋░▋▋░░▋░░░▋▋▋░ agree with Q. ▋░░░▋▋▋░░▋▋░░░▋▋▋░▋▋░░ figure out ░▋▋░░░▋▋▋░▋▋░░ being asked ░▋▋░░░▋▋▋░▋▋░░. ░▋▋░░░▋░▋▋░ there are no monsters yet.
[Wait who was that voice? Those who had meet or conversed with Eiichiro would recognize him, and understand that the recording came from his own nanomachines. That would explain why the camera was shaking so much.]
░▋▋░░░▋░▋▋░ Jinx the expedition! ░▋▋░░░▋░▋▋░ what ░░▋▋▋░░▋▋░░ and creatures lurk only ready to--
[And Orpheus again]
--oh do stop ▋▋░▋░▋▋░░▋░░ prattle of yours! ▋▋▋░░▋▋░░░▋ move on...
[Q rightfully interjecting.]

[The video flickers off again, and suddenly the sound of the waterfalls is behind them.
There is now a large door, with strange cryptic runes that look more like a mixture of different human civilization and culture than a single entity. Greek-Egyptian pillars, writing that doesn't seem to match any language current or past on earth known. Aztec and Japanese-style paintings on the wall.
It's hard to see, and the feed seems to be getting worse and worse.
There is, however a symbol appearing before them]
> REPAIRING
[The feed flickers again and it seems that the door was somehow opened, and they area already inside.
This time it is much easier to see. There are strange glowing crystals lighting up the room.
Looking around, humanoid figures are forming a circle, pointing to it. And in the dead front, three ten feet tall statues of strange creatures.
There is deadly silence.
Wait...
...is one of the statues starting to mov--
The feed cuts again.]

[Some time seems to have passed. Eiichiro appears to be breathing heavily with one hand being healed by Q's persona. It looks like they were locked in battle. The statues are still there, but have changed position.]
▋▋▋░░▋▋░░░▋ over?
[And now a pedestal rises from underground, the glow from the center crystal blinding even the view for a few seconds. When you can see it again, it appears to be a strange block spinning in the air.]
▋▋▋░░▋▋░░░▋ personally ▋▋░▋▋░▋▋▋▋░░▋▋░▋ want to--
[Suddenly the feed cracks and pops, and flashes of images appear in rapid succession.]
MINERVA! HOLD ▋▋░▋▋▋▋░░▋▋ HAND!
[That was Q's voice. Frantic.
The crystal has expanded. It looks like a large glowing white mass- and in another change, it seems like both Minerva and Q were pulled inside by gigantic white tendrils.]
▋▋▋░░▋▋ really, ▋▋▋░░░ all it has ░░░▋▋▋▋░? ░░░▋▋▋▋░░░▋▋░░▋▋ blasted tentacles, I swear I wonder why I work ░░▋▋░░▋▋ people ▋▋▋░░░▋ sometimes...
[There's the sound of an energy weapon discharging a few times, then a pained noise from Brainstorm.]
▋▋▋░░░▋ Stop that! No! I'm ▋░░ smart to die ▋░░ ▋▋▋░░░▋▋░!
[It grabs both him and Orpheus and they disappear.
The camera flickers again, as another tentacle comes closer to the view, and then violently grabs Eiichiro by the leg before dragging him into the white light--]
[...and then the feed shuts down completely.]

[Note: This video will be available in the databanks, so if your character is still out cold, they can find out about this later.]
