According to audio logs left by [[Chioma Esi]], every researcher on the initial survey team died after making physical contact with the Veil, instantly entering a state of brain death. Exos present on the colony mission experienced psychological disturbances due to the electromagnetic signals emitted by the object, hallucinating and in some cases entering a state of "billboarding" similar to that which had occurred in early exominds prior to [[Clovis Bray I]]'s invention of the [[Alkahest]]. When examining the object, [[Maya Sundaresh]] heard her own voice in her head speaking to her, telling her that the artifact was called "the Veil," and became convinced that the artifact would be their "salvation". | ||
The Veil would go on to play a central role in the founding of [[Neomuna]], serving as the main power source for the city and the basis of its [[CloudArk]] infrastructure. An [[Ishtar Collective]] facility, the [[Irkalla Complex]], was constructed around it to study it and keep it safe. During the early history of Neomuna, an [[Final Warning|atmospheric spectrometer]] was developed which displayed unexpected properties, which [[Maya Sundaresh]] speculated to be a result of the Veil's influence. | |||
