"Goodness, the wind sure is strong"
"Indeed, we're only a few meters from the mountain temple, let's hurry and make Führer proud"
"The snow, it's getting heavy again"
"Hermann, we've been climbing this mountain for hours, are you sure we're heading towards the right path?"
"According to this map...AHHHHHH"
Suddenly, the ice sheet on the mountain collapsed, and the expedition team fell into a hidden valley. Few minutes after
"Is.....is everyone alright"
"Yup"
"Yeah"
"Think I broke my arm"
"I'm fine....what the?????Is that???"
"Is that....that's the snow temple"
"Let's go check out"
Inside the hidden valley, lies an abandoned temple, the temple is rather large in size, and vastly undamaged. At two opposite sides of the door lies two statues of Chinese dragon, and the entrance is roughly 10m long, 20m tall and protected by a teal, bronze door. The expedition team managed to get into the temple, in the very end is the altar of the gods, four columns can be found at the each corner of the room.
"What the........Whats with the murals?"
"What's going on? Hermann?"
"Come over here. See these little figures on the mural, they don't look like........humans! And what's with the weird looking object that is floating in the sky?"
"That looks like one of those spaceships Romans are trying to build"
"But, how would the Chinese have the technology to build something like this"
"Guys, you might want to come over here, something's not right with the murals?"
"The figures that are coming off of the object, they are the same as to what was on the other wall"
"Could it be non-Earthly visitors?"
"I don't know, and I certainly don't know what........"
1940
Open the door, open the door!!!!
"Elsa, run, get out of here"
"But what about you?"
"Don't worry about me. Here, take the notebook, run from the escape tunnel, the Nazis must not have it"
"But Hermann..."
"Go!"
Suddenly, the door got cracked open, several men in SS uniform rushed in, the one with the highest rank greeted Hermann
"Well professor, trying to run I see, for how dare you betraying the Führer!"
"You...you monsters! It is the tool of the gods, we mortal beings must not try to.....<gets punched in the face"
"Ahh.......Hermann, what should I say, it's either the notebook, or your beloved wife will...."
When suddenly, triggers have been pulled from nowhere, the SS soldiers were shot one by one in the head, and from the shadow, it was Elsa
"Elsa.....what the?"
"Hermann, I believe General Herius would like to speak with you"
"What?"
"Three minutes from now EDSI agents will be here to escort us to Rome, try to pack as much as possible"
1945
"We won!!!!!! Allied forces pushed into Berlin, as Hitler committed suicide in his bunker!!"
2100, Rome, Eclius
Inner senate members have gathered in the Altar. Soon as the entered the room, they noticed the file folders that have been placed on the table. Having all members arrived, the Caesar started to speak
"You may now view the material inside the file folders"
Inner senators have eagerly opened the file folders as Caesar said, only finding an electronic paper with nothing, aside the symbol Σ in the middle of the paper. The senators panicked, and broke the silence
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are now at a strategic lowland. NUC is now deeply weakened by SAS and Wasabiton, while Swedish Intelligence managed to neutralize all of the members of USLA."
"Caesar, perhaps it's time for us to negotiate with....."
"Negotiate? Swedes and Wasabitans will not accept the light for nothing.......It's time.......that we activate the alternative plan"
"But Caesar, Project Σ is very......"
"I know, and I am aware of the consequences, however, we have made it this far.......there is no turning back right now. And once it succeeds, the light shall forever shine upon us"
"But Caesar, Hermann Schmidt's paper did not provide with the science behind the particles, now, I am aware of the existence of those things, I do, but we do not have sufficient data as to how it works! Also, from his description, the psionic particles are from the "other world" which, we are not even sure if the same properties of psionic particles would apply when it is in our dimension"
"Caesar, it is not advised to...."
"I have made my decision, we shall initiate Project Σ as planned. At this point, we're already in a diplomatic mess, there is no turning back now"
Stockholm, SAS, a few months after
"Sir!!!! We have detected a huge energy burst on Arctic Ocean"
"Arctic Ocean?"
"It traces to an artificial island laboratory owned by an Eclisian company called Sigma Corporation"
