Sooooo, guess what we found over on ol' Maati! [Lup sounds as cheerful as ever, but it's clearly fake and tense. And it doesn't last.]

A freaking door set into the cliffside. Locked, natch. There's a sigil on it, one of those glowy bird tats some folks woke up with.

[Anyone else hearing the alarm bells, or just her?]

I don't know-- this may not be as bad as it looks? But let's be real, it probably is. Just, keep your weapons and shit on you at all times I guess, just in case. And if you wake up somewhere weird? Don't fucking touch anything until you're positive it's not gonna kill you.

We don't have the greatest track record around here, with locked doors. And I've got a bad feeling about this.

Sooo which one was it? The symbol thing. Was it a color?

Also, gimme the deets on doors.

[She's finding it hard to catch up on the history of this place when nothing's written down, but she's mostly looking for a threat report.]

[hellawrath]

Dark blue, yeah. With the two birds looking at each other? Somebody I was with has that mark. Full on lost his shit about it, I could like, barely get him to keep it together. [Suck it, Kravitz.]

Doors like that are a bad fucking sign. [Lup sounds grim. So maybe she kinda invited door-related questions with that announcement, but that doesn’t mean she has to like talking about it.] There’s two on Enso, one in the old monkey compound and one up at the top of the mountain. When we first found them, they were enscribed with a sigil that kept the Storyteller from knowing what’s behind them? So they-- They sent all of us down there to check it out. Like, in a abducted in the middle of the fucking night kinda way.

[She lived her first month at the monkey compound, so she knows where that door is. Hadn't messed with it, so it just didn't come up. But what the other woman is saying is outright fucked, and Beau makes a 'tsh' noise in obvious displeasure.]

The god here fucking kidnapped everyone to go look into something.

[It's a flat observation, but with a seriousness behind it.]

Great. So you thinking we're heading for part two of door bullshit? What ended up behind 'em?
