These first few files show that Norcek has conducted lots of botanical research.Several documents catalogue plant-like species that look… strangely familiar to us. Though some of these plants' structures and behaviours don’t align with any known classifications, suggesting they may be directly linked to the Rift?
Other materials suggest that Norcek’s research is not limited to observation. Certain organisms are being selected for controlled cultivation and experimentation.
What they’re hoping to achieve with them… remains unclear.
Aside from all the strange-looking plants, additional files focus on minerals recovered from Rift 0.Several reports document the discovery of unusual crystallised minerals, including one that can expand, contract, and alter its structure when in contact with one of the earlier found organisms. The researchers called it “goop”.Later documents show the plans to use this goop and turn it into a functional tool design, capable of forming temporary structures through controlled crystallisation.All of this makes us wonder what else can be found in the environment of the rift…
