Remnant: The Fossilmen

Part 1. Heavenly Pit.

July 23, 2097

The Prometheus Corporation is a company with rapid growth in researching the unknown and weapons development team nearly rivaling the Schnee Dust Company.

A research facility was installed north of the main ruins of the city as a drill company. It was constructed 20 years after the collapse of Merlots Industries.

Mountain Glenn now holds its presence as a dead zone and home for our Grimm who wander through day and night. A few months earlier, a sinkhole was triggered due to the large amount of drilling water dust under the crust. The biggest sinkhole was recorded after the collapse.

Upon discovery, the stairway became unusable resulting in the sinkhole delaying any expedition to be allowed. Upon arrival, Atlas constructed and funded the company to access the secrets of the sinkhole's entrance. A couple of years later, the facility's construction was completed. An elevator was deployed upon the desecrated stairway.

Task teams would be tasked with sample extractions within the sinkhole for further testing and analysis of Remnants crust.

Many relics, pre-war weapons, and blueprints were retrieved and brought to the storage laboratory. The origins of these objects bring us back half a century ago. Archaeologists and Historians have estimated that these relics were dated back to the 2030s. Unbeknownst to them, the surface barely cracked its hidden treasures.

With continuous corrosion, a secret entrance was revealed to be a large door made of tungsten. The vault was 30ft tall and 24m wide. Getting through the tungsten door required a password to access. A pre-war terminal was reactivated for further clues inside. Texts and readings were uncovered to reveal one riddle, here is the puzzle.

['Poor people have it. Rich people need it. If you eat it you die. What is it?'] It read.

Professionals finally cracked the riddle and proceeded with the operation. They invited Atlas programmers to hack into the terminal and break the code with a firewall as ancient as time.

A woman from Mistral discovered and uncovered the entrance allowing expansion for more to explore. Her name is Dr. Ares, a woman with the background of an archaeologist and a bioengineer hired by the company Prometheus. An overqualified worker with 25 years of experience.

"It was nothing, ladies and gentlemen." The worker said, before photographing a human skull with its gold tooth intact from their scroll.

"Nothing, what do you mean nothing?" Ares Asked.

The location was heavily guarded by watchtowers and drones, making the task seem tedious. On Saturdays, trucks transported supplies and ammunition from Atlas to manage the mess hall and supply storage.

Scientists, paleontologists, and bioengineers from various kingdoms were secretly assigned to secure and study the origin, birthdate, and current status of the specimen. It is crucial to extract the male's history as it is essential data.

[These are their stories.]

The heart monitor beeped as the nurse wrote her report down for the specimen's daily diagnosis for treatment.

"Vitals are stabilized Dr. Pogo. Dosage of medical nanobots is currently repairing muscle tissue." She said. The test tube that sealed the specimen, looked like a glass sarcophagus Snow White was put in from the 7 dwarves.
