[ 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! ]

as rey mentioned in her transmission, those who’s cover stories involve being a capable inventory or student should be careful. the knowledge would have helped us on our own attempt to gather information from any who died in the camps. in our attempt, we miscalculated the extent of this worlds technology. i would advise anyone who believes they can outsmart it to reconsider, though our powers can still help us here.

people are taken to the facility to invent for the government. those attempting to infiltrate the government, will gain favor by saying they know of someone who can create something for society and are able to fund that endeavor.

if you find yourself in the camps, we have learned that the collars can be removed with a bracelet possessed by officers such lt. general blair. he wore one on his wrist when yennefer and i were released.

once he is able, wei wuxian will share information he has gathered.

In your time there, did you happen to take notice of an area where high profile prisoners may possibly be kept?

Xichen? You ended in prison? You?

[ What has the world turned into... ]

Thanks for the info but are you all alright?

Thank you.

I am sure this will be useful information for those of us that find ourselves to be in such situations.

Are you and Yennefer all right?

[After 4 days of radio silence from Wei Wuxian, this message appears in Lan Xichen's post. If anyone has tried to contact Wei Wuxian in the last 4 days, they wouldn't have received any response.]

I don't know how much of this is useful, but I'm sharing what I have.

Sadir Damji was the stork in the Fables. He was originally from the first circle, born to a politician mother and an engineer father. He studied law at the Arch which is how he got connected to the Fables and eventually joined them.

After a strike gone wrong, he was sentenced to the labor camps. They forced him to develop surveillance technology embedded in the HOLONET system, and then experimented on him with new drugs that took his life.

Other masked Fables are the Raccoon, the Snake, and the Raven. I don't know how many others. Many of them began as law students. Anyone connected with those studies might be able to find out more.

[The next part isn't useful, but he says it anyway because he owes it to Sadir and because he wants to.]

He was a great man. Sadir dedicated himself to helping others at his own expense. He died a hero. He deserves to be remembered.

Xichen-ge? Arrested? You??

Well, if Wei Wuxian was involved, maybe it's not so surprising...

Are you okay?
