The following account was recorded in the agent's log during your transmission: Cyclopean stone pedestals rise from a calm, crystal-clear lake, like shards of weathered bone, supporting a series of ancient, leather-bound tomes that seem impervious to the water lapping gently against them. Umm, the air is heavy with the scent of wet earth and moss, the humidity pretty high. An impossible, ornate mandala of iridescent lotus flowers, suspended a foot or so beneath the surface, pulsates with an otherworldly energy – perfectly reflecting the kabbalistic tree of life etched into the clouds drifting lazily above. The sun casts a golden glow across the water's glassy surface, creating an illusion of stillness.
