“The ceiling is just a floor we haven’t stood on yet.” — K. Wright
Kristen Wright is ready to test something nobody on Terra has attempted before: a physical breach of the sky itself. She needs people she trusts to escort the equipment to the volcano summit and hold the site steady while it happens.
Where to start
Kristen briefs you in person at the Rhine Lab Pioneer Project launch site on the Highland Plateau. Two large installations loom in the background — she doesn’t explain what either one is for.
Hooks
- Your job: escort the “High-Resonance Probe” to the caldera rim, defend the site while it activates, and recover what’s left of the probe afterwards
- Rhine Lab’s own data suggests the sky isn’t empty air — it’s some kind of barrier, and it apparently self-heals fast
- You’re told to bring eye protection. No one explains why
- If you’ve crossed paths with anything that reacts strongly to the divine, or to the sky itself, this site might trigger something
- Other interested parties — not all of them friendly to Rhine Lab’s goals — may have their own reasons to be watching the summit
Rewards
Whatever arrangement you’ve struck with Kristen — and a front-row seat to something that’s about to change what anyone on Terra thought they knew about the sky.
Some details are left for the table to discover.
