To all,
Last City Forum, I explained to the city that the Enigmatic Order would be disengaging the Enigmatic Collector from its installation point in Frey's Fortress, Main Hall, to the Laboratory in Echten House, in Palisades. We had successfully installed it two weeks earlier. Near the end of its installation, we were paid a visit by Agares, a dreadspawn, who actually complimented us on the simplicity and effectiveness of the design before leaving us with an insult comparing dreamers to agoknight bile.
I was able to reinforce my will and disengage the collector with a bit of difficulty. The room shook and we were temporarily blinded. The chaos pool in the center also told us they were coming and to fear them. I am not sure what they were referring to.
We proceeded on schedule towards the Laboratory. I remained fully armed and arted. Neogi and Kayasisis did not follow. We had planned on placing the Enigmatic Collector on the pedestal and experimenting on it. But we were met by an unwelcome presence. A kotoken. Who decided to engage with violence and not words.
It spoke only one word. Its name. Carnger. It spoke with strong weapons. It was a foul beast with long claws and empty white eyes with a dark cloak that appeared torn to shreds along the edges. The cloak? Covered in an amber colored substance that appeared to shift fluidly.
I took a collapse and dropped the collector. The beast picked it up while I was arting up again in the sanctuary. I collapse it with firestorm and took the collector back. I should have listened to one of our associates, Kelos, who asked me to hand him the collector while he restored me from sanctuary. I should have listened. But as I was contemplating this, the beast set upon us again. I stayed out there the most, with Belom and Ezhar alternating their presence. I took another collapse and lost the collector again. I renewed myself in sanctuary. The beast headed out to the main entrance, mocking us from the bridge. A firestorm from myself renewed the engagement but Carnger fled into the laboratory and the chaos breach beyond it. Ezhar and I successfully chased it to the Chaos Shrine itself. Kelos and Belom...got a bit lost.
In the deepest black of the chaos shrine, Ezhar and I engaged in a protracted battle with Carnger that lasted several minutes. Finally, Ezhar managed to collapse it with a chakram. I took the collector back...again. Without waiting for round three, I headed back into the sanc, passing the collector to Kelos, who took the collector back to Trinity Stronghold, where it now rests in a private and secure space well away from our House Prime.
We were unable to glean any information from the Enigmatic Collector as we were unable to actually experiment on it. I will discuss this matter in detail with Ruler Belom and the other associates of the Enigmatic Order before we determine a course of action. We have upset the chaos. But that will not sway us from our mission as a house to attempt to gain a greater understanding of it.
