The San Jose Biogenesis dome was, for its time, a miracle of modern design. When originally created, and given its needs for a wide range of genetic material and animal survival structures, the entire dome was created to sustain a miniature functioning ecosystem. [i]Architectural design file, tourist guide notes, 10.C.44: Most of the roof is clear, designed using glass and plastics that create an effective internal greenhouse, allowing for adequate light and moisture to grow natural plants throughout the facility. The overhead sun shines down, leaving only side corridors and a few special environments bred for low light conditions in darkness.[/i] Careful maintenance drone work has maintained this clarity through the centuries, allowing sunlight to still filter through the space without the layers of accumulated dust you'd expect from a neglected or abandoned facility. [i]Architectural design file, tourist guide notes, 15.A.44: The floor materials were built directly over a soil layer and designed with flexibility and space to encourage and strengthen with expanding root systems rather than crack and burst. 3M, a mainstay and titan of modern manufacturing, designed the new material based on an organic polymer to be stronger and more durable than artificial plastic. On top of that, the pipes are carefully interspersed, built with more flexibility and a redundant outer layer so that growing roots would not cut them off and ensure quality water flow to the entire facility.[/i] Monitor systems remain in place in lower power mode to ensure that central pipes continue to provide heat and water through the closed loop system. Extraneous materials layers have been abandoned and complex root systems encase each pipe, ensuring continued water flow even as material degrades. [i]Architectural design file, tourist guide notes, 9.C.44: Solar panels were built to ring the dome exterior and were also interspersed with the flooring in order to provide adequate power, while careful internal paths were designed to crisscross through the space so that staff could move about with minimal damage to the environments. The surface coating, designed by Boerden Plastics, is uniquely structured to be 99.99% transparent, ensuring that the solar panels are protected from the wear of human feet and animal hoofs alike while having almost no loss in power generation.[/i] As you traverse the structure, it's impressive how carefully the ground solar panels have remained cleared for facility power, even as the rest of the plant life became overgrown due to human traversal path maintenance becoming unnecessary in a closed facility. "After there were no people" says Ailee, sending you a direct feed, "and no animals due to the radiation impacting their biology more heavily than plants, to the point that we lost our sustainable breeding population for most creatures in the facility, it got pretty lonely." You notice that in addition to her core files, she's copying some video files as well, stream archives labeled for various vtubers. The actual exit from the dome takes barely five minutes. The core structure of the building works in straight lines, so it only required moving from the beekeeping habitat to a central walkway, and then a straight shot through the overgrown gardens to the exit doors, which Ailee has poised and ready to go. Then you are free and out the door, surrounded by a corridor of trees that block any long-range vision until you find a clearing. The earth shakes thunderously, and you hear the sound of birds taking flight well ahead of you. Ailee communicates a wistful sigh and suggests that you head northwest, dropping a simple map into your files [hider=Beyari Map] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/YSxD0PMc/Beyari-rough-map-image.png[/img][/hider]
