Then we’ll find something out here.

@Server

*The ‘barrier’ comes to a halt at the building’s edge, pressing against the door frame and all windows, and giving the appearance that we are a building floating alone in the void of space, and after this becomes apparent, I stop to catch my breath*
I sure hope so…

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

Do you have any idea what this might be??

@Server

Not in the slightest.
*Puts both arms in front of my face and blasts through the front door of the building, running to the other end of the lobby before turning to look at the encroaching cosmos again*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

We should go.
*Takes off away from the wall*

@Server

*Once it passes over the courtyard boundaries, I turn and follow you, dashing for the front entrance to the building. Despite nearly every visible window being empty, one lone humanoid silhouette can be seen turning and walking away several floors up as we run*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

*Takes a step back at the sight*
Does whatever is going on match any evidence you found at the scene of the murders?

@Server

They were just killings. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if the killer had the capability to do whatever this is.
*The walls close in quickly, and show no sign of stopping at the gate as I take several quick steps backwards*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

If it's some kind of trap, it's worth keeping that in mind as an out.

@Server

Sure. Let’s give it a go.
*Turns to make my way out the door, but upon looking out the gate, a bright, shimmering wall of light that appears like a beautiful, over-exaggerated image of the cosmos quickly closes in on the facility, enveloping reality outside and causing it to disappear as not one soul reacts to its presence*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

In the worst case, we can trip it until they figure out what's going on.

@Server

I’m not sure to what extent that whatever is happening is… Eh, happening. If we really really make people suspicious, we might end up causing a high alert, and getting caught after that point would be… Well, I don’t think explaining out intentions and what happened would be believed by security forces so well, we’ll say.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

Maybe try going back and seeing if the effect goes away?

@Server

I don’t expect portals to work within the grounds. But maybe we can slip out while they’re reseting that alarm so we don’t trip it again.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

Did we walk into some kind of trap?

@Server

Hard to say. Though it doesn’t seem to be theirs at least.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

Alright, now it's absurd. What's going on?

@Server

Something that might require a change of plans.
*Looks up at the building, the top stretching too far into the sky to see, then back to the guards as they shut the alarm off and complain to each other about faulty technology. They appear slightly less than opaque now*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

This is more than a little unusual...

@Server

*The guard walks in our direction as he makes his way to the alarm system, as several other heavily armed and armored personnel emerge from the building and rush toward us as well*
Listen, I tried to-
*He walks through the both of us, and instead of bumping shoulders like we normally would have, he passes through us harmlessly, his body shimmering at the points of contact much like the visual effect from our moment of arrival*
