My basic idea is what to all "super high tech sci-fi military" base's have in comon mostly: when shit hits the fan (like pets escaping) the whole base goes on uber lock down traping everyone inside forever till someone opens it from out side later, like when u send a strike team to clean up the mess, but with Allag having it's Revolt going on at the time I bet the "exterior gaurd force" was recalled to Crystal tower leaving the access key in Vanu hands over time (& then swallowed by Primal Bismark) & without any possible knowladge as to "why" they got the key just that it unlocks Azys Lia it was left un-used till we came later... those poor ppl trapped with murdering monsters & haywire machines for thousands of years, if any decendants actually are "alive" they probably have gone pure Feral by now (or worse become the mobs we are killing now)

just an idea, now back to the shadows of the forum
