EPTI will continue from where we left off sometime mid-week, probably in a short post reviewing what has happened in the story thus far. At the moment Physics and Organic Chemistry are kicking all of my butts.))

Here's a recap of nothing but the facts: -Location & Time- *Mountains, camp-site supposed to be few hours' drive north from "work" *One hour away from camp-site was last known time before getting lost, drove for 2hrs 20min while potentially lost to unknown log cabin *Fell asleep for 3hrs, it's 8:22pm, can't see Deer mountain -Friends- *Marc, Alex *Last communication: ~8:45pm, ring Marc's phone twice before he picked up: + Show Spoiler + Marc sounds exasperated, almost panicked. There is little background noise, just Marc's voice through the phone. "I don't kn...! I w.... the cabin... Alex... ... try.. ....ch. ..found a... ...cas...." The connection cuts off mid-sentence. You dial him back five or six more times, but can't get a signal. You then try and call Alex. Again it takes you a few tries, but the phone finally connects through It rings seven times. Right before you think it's about to go to voicemail, you hear a click. "Alex? You okay, man?" No answer. For several seconds you can hear thick static and shallow breathing. You hear a click, and the call ends. -Cabin- *2 sets of footprints [presumably Alex & Marc's] go to window, bookcase, fireplace, dining table, computer equipment, then end at bookshelf *Found items: -6 magnetic tape rolls: + Show Spoiler + -Steinholz - Replicate 27 - 19 Oct 1964 -Steinholz - Replicate 27 - 19 Oct 1964 (this is the one you made armor out of ) -Steinholz - Te|||||||l||||| |||||||r||||||||| (this label has been scratched off with a permanent marker) -Steinholz - Facility 7 Environment Control Log - 12 Oct 1964//12 Apr 1965 -Steinholz - Dictation on Replicates 1-24 - 22 Sep 1964 Repair Log - 29 Apr 1965 -Steinholz - Modified Epidemiology of Filoviridae -Charles Darwin's "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection" in bookshelf. Inside: + Show Spoiler + -casette tape "PLAY ME" inside and piece of paper indicating circuit breaker operation, also says "TYPHON AND ECHIDNA / DO NOT OPEN FACILITIES 31 OR 27" -casette tape is small, playable by old answering machine or voice recorder -Tool shelf has: rusty wood saw, broken hack saw, box of rusty nails, phillips screwdriver, and old claw hammer -Pantry has skeleton -- someone who hung himself, holding leatherbook, pen on ground + Show Spoiler + -book is maintenance logs for various mechanical equipment, large holding tanks, generators and the like -one interest note: 'the RIFT device', apparently a large container of liquid oxygen was left in the entrance area which short circuited it, leading to hours of expensive repairs -halfway through the book, there's a smear of ink on a page, and then the next page is a hastily written note -- the words sprawl diagonal across the page, as if the author wrote these words in the dark, with some of the words smeared with sweat -"Dr Steinholz had funding pulled mont.. ago govt strike team sh.... up to shut us down Steinholz refused men .. suits took Dr behind cabin + execut.d him I deac...ted the RIFT device at gunpoint ......t the soldiers in + they .ocked me in here RIFT no good with large qtys of ferr..agnetic/paramagn...c substances if the govt team breaches any .. the safety seals on the ph..nix project god he.p us" -Security Door- *Has a counter-measure which relies on a large amount of electricity, generates ozone, and produces a large explosive decompressive blast  oor looks like:+ Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://www.nps.gov/archive/mimi/history/srs/images/fig44.jpg) You reach the door, and it looks heavy. It has three levers, one which looks like a handle and the other two are attached to pipes that work their way inside the door. It's interesting to note that the door is designed to be sealed from the outside... | ||

Friends - they've been gone for 3 hours. Footprints and phone call indicate they went inside the cabin, investigated, and went inside the bookshelf to the security door Dr. Steinholz - most likely the lead researcher on the facility who was executed by a government strike team behind the cabin when he refused them entry. Experiments may be on Filoviridae, a family of viruses that include Ebloa. Replicates/Facilities range from #1 to #31. Facilities #27 and #31 sound particularly deadly, named Typhon and Echnida (known in Greem mythology to be the mother and father of all Greek mythological monsters) -- the X'd out switches in the circuit board may have to do with them. Skeleton in pantry - apparently locked in the pantry by a government strike team that shut down the facility, and thus committed suicide after writing the last journal entry in the dark. Appears to be responsible for the RIFT device that guards the facility. RIFT device - the countermeasure device guarding the security door, operates using large electricity to generate an explosive decompression blast. Can be short circuited by large quantities of ferromagnetic/paramagnetic substances, such as iron, cobalt, nickel, lithium and liquid oxygen. Known unknowns/Actionables: 1 - RIFT device - can we find enough iron to disable the device? The picture also shows a valve (what does it do?), and two warning labels that are illegible (what do they say?). 2 - What do the casette tape and magnetic tape rolls say? 3 - Dr. Steinholz - >> Go behind the cabin with a flashlight and try to search for his corpse. 4 - Rest of the log cabin - >> Search the window, fireplace and dining table. (I want to see what Alex/Marc saw) | ||
