The following account was recorded in the agent's log during your transmission: Rusty hulks of decaying machinery are strewn about a barren, rocky beach, waves crashing against the shore in a slow, rhythmic beat. The air's heavy with the stench of saltwater and decay, and a sickly yellow mist hangs low over the ground, like it's seeping from the earth itself. A massive, crystalline monolith rises from the center of the beach, its surface etched with cryptic symbols that seem to be a mix of ancient languages and alchemical notation. The monolith appears to be steadily absorbing the surrounding machinery, as if it's somehow 'eating' the metal hulks.
