[i]Undying Will[/i] and the escort destroyer [i]Steel Vigilance[/i] moved into the surface of the planet, the rest of the fleet following suit. They landed on the surface of the Exploratory Command Center, and Fleetmaster Hagris'kum, along with her fleet tacticians, went to the station. The rest of the ships were given shore leave for the time being.

[b][i]Elbima a Yuturata[/i] ("Temple of Yuturata"), Mount Sevyllo Basin, Daramaska, Sazkarjhia[/b]

The Temple of Yuturata has remained dormant for nearly nine thousand years, ever since carbosteel was discovered there. But something in the ancient temple stirred. Massive channels that once laid "dry" began flowing with molten metal. Workers, suits of loosely-floating plates of armor bound together by life energy, began hammering at the forges, a rumbling echo thundered across the temple.

It was first seismologists in Daramaska that caught the rumblings near the temple, and once it was discovered that they were coming from there, the Archaeological Registry also jumped on the case. Along with scientists, theologians and historians, a large Peoples' Army brigade, many civilians checked on it to see what was happening. The normally thick, hardly-breathable smog that encompassed the industrial region's atmosphere was beginning to clear up around the basin.

Something there had awoken.
