HERALD OF OBLIVION within the chamber, the Spyder appeared to be carrying out maintenance work on one of the conduits leading to or from the crystal. Could the green-glowing mineral have something to do with the operation of the Tombship’s systems? And, if so, would destroying it help you complete your mission here? If you want to fire on the crystal with your storm bolter, turn to 229. If you would rather leave this chamber without further delay, turn to 213. 187 You take a step towards the shimmering portal and then pause, taking a moment to compose yourself. When you are ready you step through it. Your suit’s auto-senses scream with static distortion and you feel inexplicable frozen right down to the marrow in your bones... And then you emerge on the other side of the quicksilver pool - but where are you? The chamber appears to be made of the same black material as the processional avenue. However, set into the green-tinged obsidian are the geometric patterns of gold and silver filigree circuitry. The alien sigils and hieroglyphs are everywhere, running in long strings as if in mockery of the binaric language of the Tech-priests of Mars, even though you know this strange script pre-dates that of almost any other civilisation in the galaxy by tens of millions of years. You check your auspex again but whatever it was that was interfering with its signal before is persisting now that you are inside the sepulchral Tombship. The runes demarcating the positions of your fellow battlebrothers throughout the derelict have been wiped from the scanner. You do what you can to appease the device’s vexed machine-spirit and, before it cuts out altogether, one final scan locates ten nodal points. These are connected by a maze of passageways but — just before your auspex dies altogether - the position of several of these seem to shift and change, as if the laws of time and space inside this Necrontyr vessel do not apply as they do elsewhere. Curiously, but fortuitously, your helm’s internal compass is still operational, as if some massive electrical force is creating its own magnetic field, by means of which you will be able to navigate your way through the Tombship. 8 P >
