[00:02:11] Ancient Royan folktales suggest that ████ originates from a place deeper than Lahai-Roi itself. According to legend, it’s the root of all disasters in the region, located directly beneath what is now Sundermere.
[00:03:49] The Black Shore’s monitoring records confirm an anomalous, dual-source frequency signature for ████: Point A: Lahai-Roi, the site of periodically emerging ████ zones. Point B: The Sundermere lakebed, emitting a faint, heavily distorted signal.
[00:05:02] The expedition team followed the signal to the lakebed and discovered a ████ structure, its form resembling ████. The ████ hangs inverted, connected by ████. Its mainbody is rooted deep into the ground. ████ extends towards an upper geological stratum, likely oriented towards Bjartr Woods.
[00:05:44] ████ material is consistent with that of the Exostrider. Surface patterns show distinct ████ characteristics, as though intended to ████ some presence.
Energy from the Reactor Drive flows through the ████, continuously feeding and sustaining whatever lies within ████. This appears to maintain a sealed system.
[00:06:22] Tethys confirms the faint ████ frequency originates from beyond ████. The Research Institute has propsed several hypotheses. The prevailing theory suggests: Beneath ████ lies a ████ that bridges ████. ████ exists to sever that connection. ████ only seals part of ████; the remainder disperses towards Lahai-Roi, persisting as Void Storms and ████.
[00:07:01] If ████ is damaged, the now-separated dual source ████ will converge again, regaining its complete form. That would be… Solaris’s ████
[00:08:33] Further Royan records note that beyond ████ lies the path the Exostrider once traversed. This “path” may be a literal ████, linking directly to ████.
[00:09:10] What lies beyond the gate? ████? The universe? The Etheric Sea has barred our path upward. This downward route may be the only remaining ████.

[00:10:00] Attention: Project Code “Sunderemere Lakebed - Aleph-1” is now classifed as a restricted zone. Any attempt to approach ████ will be treated as active interference with ████. Warning: this recording will terminate after the “████**” sound.**
