Story of Sol - Operation Trojan - Part 13
Map of the Iron Province
TRANSCRIPT
A few days later, I believe on the 14th, one of the other teams managed to break through a collapsed wall, inside they found another laboratory wing, but this one was far more advanced. All teams, including my own, were assigned to the labs.
Inside, the anomalous occurrences were happening more frequently, and to a higher severity. Furniture and equipment on the walls and ceiling, similar to the tunnel a week ago. But this time, it kept shifting all around when unobserved. And not only was inanimate objects affected, but people too. Myself included.
I was in a room, chipping away at this caved in part of this room, when I noticed a faint green hue in the air. I stopped what I was doing and turned around to see if anything had changed. It was then that I noticed I was upside down. Strangely it remained constant even when I exited the room.
Everyone was flabbergasted. We've seen this happen on objects, but that was the first time it happened to a person. Celica and a few other Eltyrian higher-ups immediately began questioning me. What I was doing, what I experienced, and how I felt.
I was completely fine, just had gravity affecting me upwards, not downwards. They ordered me to stay in the area, and put myself over something shallow so if gravity did shift again, I wouldn't fall far. I did so until they decided I should try walking out of the area to 'reset' myself. And it worked. Had a team with a net below me at all times when I did.
As I got further away, I increasingly felt a pull downwards, until it was enough to overcome the pull upwards and I fell to the ground. Net caught me so I was fine. Still, it was strange.
After this, people clued in that things only happen when something is not observed, so they pulled as many workers and Eltryian staff as possible to keep 'observing' the work. And to their credit, it seemed to work.
