Lady Cellica, Miss Anette, and myself will head into the corridor above and see if we can't deal with this mana problem." He'd walk over to where the rope was to the catwalk above as he spoke. "Regis, Khalisa, and Amalie will head into the ground level corridor and see if they can't find a way into the facility proper and get that door open." "Hup-" Lizzie's frame shuddered slightly as a large hatch on its front opened up. The surprisingly well dressed Tivven would clamber out, climbing down the front of the large mech with agile movement, landing softly on the ground a few seconds later. "Sounds like a plan to me." She'd grab a pack full of tools from a storage spot on Lizzie's leg and sling it over her shoulder. "Big ol' door like that probably has a manual release somewhere. Maybe in a security room or something? Whatevs, should be easy with the two tin cans." "Then lets get going." [hr] [@Raineh Daze][@VitaVitaAR] Auxiliary Storage - Climbing up the rope was easy enough, if one could ignore the creaking of the metal catwalk. Supposing Anette simply didn't decide to carry everyone up with her magic. Heading down the passage would soon lead to a broken door, long since haven been stuck in an open position. A small plaque written in ancient script sat next to it, old, faded and barely legible. Once inside of the room it was remarkably well preserved, on either side of it were what seemed to be large pillars that went from the floor and ending just before reaching the ceiling. A few had blinking lights of blues and reds. Along these odd pillars were boxes and crates. mechanical arms of mechs hanging from the ceiling, sitting on old shelving corroded and rusted. A soft, blue glow and a gentle mist was filtering in from some vents above before disappearing into the air. "This room is about as far as we could get as far as remote recon could go." Otelius spoke up. On the other side of the room was a hallway. Taking even a few steps down it would reveal the room after was covered in a thick, blue mist that was steadily rolling into the the room they were currently in. Accidentally breathing any in would cause a brief coughing fit. "The rooms beyond are completely flooded." [i]"Testing...testing, this is Monique! Hows everyone doing? Any problems getting in so far?"[/i] There waqs a beep on their com devices as Moniques voice soon chimed in. [hr] [@Crimson Paladin][@Pyromania99] Maintenance Corridors - The debris and seemingly makeshift entrance creaked as the trio stepped into it, the supports groaning slightly under the vibrations from their foot steps, but primarily the two heavy mechanical suits. Steel beams, whatever Khalisa and the other engineers repurposed, seemingly from the site itself meshed with whatever she could get her hands on to hold it up. Lights had been strung up through the corridor creating a dim glow. If nothing else, the hallway was holding. "See? Nothin' to worry about. Dumb pointy eared bougie. Pfft, this is peak Tivven engineering." Khalisa grumbled as she'd have taken the decision to take point down the corridor. "Like A Tivven doesnt know how to build something to last, humph." One of her ears twitched irritably as the short hallway would soon open up into a larger room. "Anyways, this is about as far as we got here." The room in question...well, it didn't look too terribly different from the hallway truthfully. A large, rectangular shaped room littered with various old machines and scraps of debris. Part of the roof had long since collapsed on the same side that they had come out on creating a pile of rock and earth filling the room. Part of the ceiling on the right side had collapsed as well, only held up by an old support column that was bending suspiciously. What seemed to be some kind of vent was hanging off of it, a blue, glowing mist leaking from it. "We determined it would probably be best not to mess around too much. Its really not very stable so be careful. The only way through is through that door over there." The door in question seemed to be a sliding door. A keypad of some sort right next to it. There was just two problems. Going up to it offered no response aside from a very low scraping noise as it refused to open and a keypad next to it blinking faintly red in error. The second problem was that a large metal shelving of some kind had fallen over in front of it, resting at an angle on some wheeled ancient wheeled vehicle. "Think either one of ya could get that door working?" Khalisa would walk over to some of the old machines and start inspecting it. [i]"Testing...testing, this is Monique! Hows everyone doing?
