Atop the peak of a mountain.
This location is flooded with shallow, crystal clear water. The stars twinkle in
the clear night sky. A low machine base sits here, its hulking mass crouching
low on the ground, waiting. Thrusting her golden tusks in the air, a silver
haired mammoth with enormous ears stomps about here. Heiress Sarrasri Talnara,
Arrow of the Hunt towers here, shrouded. She wields a luminescent athame of
serrated crystal in her left hand and an emblazoned hunter's shield in her
right.
You see a single exit leading southwest.
Your karma rises in response to your deeds.
You gain a new honour!

With blinding speed, Gognigin attaches a dish and box to the machine, affixing
it with lengths of cord. Finally, he carefully places an ornate rod in its
center.

A low humming sound reverberates through the Basin, its resonance shaking
everything it comes into contact with.

A beam of golden light and a single pillar of pure blackness pierce the sky, and
slowly begin spiralling about each other, tiny specks of matter visible within
their forms.

The beams begin to spin about faster and faster, before imploding into each
other noiselessly, the humming sound that plagued the Basin abruptly vanishing,
replaced by total silence.

Jagged rifts tear open in the sky as bright flashes of light, flickering above
the Basin of Life. Hideous humanoid creatures crawl forth, their howls and
screams of madness filling the air. They pour out into the seas below.
