Phase 1
Rifts appear - a favorable alignment of circumstances and precise calculation concentrate them in the southwest corner of the cave.
Gradually, creatures begin to emerge, but we are already ready to direct the lens at them.
Phase 2
The lens is aimed - the Grand Rift is stabilized.
No teams from the Archmaster approached the rift.
We continue to wait while everything remains stable...
Phase 3
The approach of the storm is felt; we will divert the lens at the moment it manifests.
The Archmaster instructed that creatures must not approach - five of our warriors, during the diversion of the lens from the rift.
We have never directed the lens at the rift during a storm before.
The storm approaches...
Phase 4
The storm has descended; in moments, the order to aim the lens will be given...

Experiment Results...
Phase 5
It was a terrifying sight; we could no longer resist the Grand Rift.
Creatures began to burst forth from it with particular intensity.
Millions of rusty particles emanated from the epicenter of the experiment.
It took the lives of our people; we rushed to flee.
Nearly half of the combat team was lost.
The one standing closest was simply wiped off the face of the earth.
Rusty shards coated the bodies of three other participants; I heard their screams and groans...
The fifth was covered in dark spots; I believe it was rot.
We cannot save him; there are crowds of rusty creatures around him.
I saw him try to activate the Rift Guard closest to the epicenter...
