[ one week into the mission, the orbers will have a video stream pop up on their network feeds. the footage shows the inside of a large dome surrounded by large structures which appear to be manufacturing machines.

there are people dressed in white, all wearing collars, working all around. it is difficult to see what the machines are making. ] this is what is going on inside the seventh circle, from within the dome.

[as the view pans, it's clear lan xichen isn't alone; wei wuxian and yennefer are with him. ]

[the feed of video continues until xichen arrives at a cell and then, well, it isn't quite as useful. still, one more message follows. ] the collars worn by anyone in the dome are set to detonate if they attempt to leave.

be careful if you are tying to go undetected and leave. we used invisibility talismans and were still detected immediately.

[ooc: based on this request here for what they see, but set before they're interrogated. more to come within replies from the trio! ]

（ he sends along a few files after a moment, each written down with some key technobabble terms applicable in this situation. it's very obvious that he's been doing some rather heavy reading about the technology of this world — and moreover, that he understands it without much difficulty. ）

Newton may be able to refine them further if he is available. They offer a starting point, at least.

this is of great help, thank you. i admit i do not understand much of it but, i suppose, a politician is not supposed to.

i will ask newtown for assistance.
