Do you remember? Critter 2 had been stuck in a crack after a unfortunate exploration attempt, unable to move forward nor backward.
Now, we finally have managed to get it out of there, with the help of the more powerful Critter 3 and a small grappling hook.
Of course, Critter 2 is a little bit damaged now and has to be repaired, but at least we have it back 
Today, I´ll tell you a bit about Unknown age 03. We found it in the mantainer facility I´ve written about some dozen posts ago, on a pile of ages that we suspect were to be examined by the maintainers, shortly before the fall. As we know, they never got to finish this pile, so the age lacks any maintainers stamp. The linking book we found had no name on its cover, nor did we find any books of commentary.
So, we used extreme caution when visiting the age. Tom Woods, Alex Rebman-Bartos and B.P. Forberg were the first three members of the expedition to link through, wearing maintainer suits.
B.P. wanted to try out one of the biggest, heaviest suits we have, so we helped him putting it on.
After the three linked, we waited for some seconds, till they reappeared in the facility.
As soon as they materialized, green fumes appeared, having attached themselves on the suits. At once, an alarm started to sound – chemical alert! We ran out of the linking chamber, and the doors shut automatically behind us. The three remained in there, when the ventilation system ran up and sucked the greenish haze out of the chamber.
The sensors showed, that it was a rather corrosive, highly toxic gas – hadn´t we reacted so fast, who knows what had happened!
The ventilation system worked flawless, and soon there was no more sign of the gas in the linking chamber.
The door opened again, and we helped the three out of their suits.
“It is a whole mess. The place is absolutely unsafe”, were B.P.s first words when we lifted the heavy helmet part of his suit.
It seems, that the age is covered not only in this gas, but also in kneedeep dust composed of the same corrosive material, in a chemical compound with other matter.
We decided to put the age under quarantine immediately – it is much too unsafe to let anyone go there, at least without the proper security measures.
Do you think it was corrosive and unsafe before the Fall, or that the centuries that have passed had rendered it unsafe? Do you know anything about the kind of Age it was before it became unsafe?
Unfortunately, we don´t really know. The three visitors only had seconds to look around, and even the suits sensors only picked up few data.
But at the moment, the council is discussing the matter – some would prefer to send another expedition there to gather more informations about the age, others are strongly against it for it being much too dangerous.
I have to say, although I would like to know more, I´m against it too – it just isn´t worth to risk anybodys life, just for curiosity.
But we will see, how the councils vote will be ultimately.
