It is the dawn of time. Molten CAFM oozes from cracks in the earth.
One by one, our team members wander forth across a desert of ice from
which stark boulders jut. A harsh wind blows through the plain which
reality has become; the wind congeals into deeper ice, and the
boulders disappear for the most part. Above, the darkness of this new
universe presents itself off at the edges of her vision; she sees only
a meager glimpse of it.
FacilityNow has begun.
