Welcome to Stellar Intranet

Overview:

At approximately 0200 hours, an anomaly was recorded in EXPT-2288 (Helios) during a scheduled suppression sequence. In an effort to pacify Helios’ escalating aggression, the attending researchers initiated an emergency core-stability override. The override resulted in the abrupt shutdown of his fire core — a component critical to his physical and psychological regulation.

This procedure triggered an uncontrolled transformation now designated as Black Sun Form. Witnesses describe Helios’ flames collapsing inward, replaced by an unstable gravitational aura of searing black fire. The chamber lights dimmed by 47%, and the reinforced walls began to warp under localized heat distortion.

Incident Report:

Upon entering Black Sun Form, Helios exhibited hostile behavior, entering a frenzied state of predatory aggression. His targeting focus shifted immediately to the attending scientists. Surveillance shows Dr. Vey attempting to initiate a failsafe containment sequence before Helios advanced with lethal intent.

Subject Daniel Anderson, who had been observing the procedure under clearance protocols, attempted to distract Helios. During the confrontation, Helios inflicted a second-degree burn across Daniel’s left forearm with a direct strike of unstable black flame. This momentary pause in aggression redirected Helios’ focus, granting security staff time to re-engage his core sequence.

After 6 minutes of uncontrolled rampage, Helios collapsed, his body reverting from Black Sun Form once his fire core reignited. The residual energy left scorch-mark etchings on steel containment walls, now permanently warped with fractal burn patterns resembling solar eclipses.

Aftermath:

• Three scientists sustained non-fatal injuries from heat exposure and debris impact.
• Daniel Anderson was treated in the infirmary. His healing process was expedited unusually quickly, leading to suspicions of undisclosed resilience factors.
• Containment Wing C-7 remains sealed pending reconstruction and further stability protocols.
• EXPT-2288 “Helios” is forbidden from undergoing any further forced core shutdown sequences.

Notes:

The Black Sun event remains one of the most dangerous containment breaches to date, and its cause — the suppression of Helios’ fire core — has been classified as irreversible risk procedure. Furthermore, security review has flagged Daniel Anderson’s resilience and rapid recovery as “anomalous” — a note that will later contribute to the rediscovery of EXPT-4317’s hidden classification.

Classification: Level 5 — Confidential

The incident now referred to as Operation: Blood Moon occurred when Experiment 2287 — Atlas exceeded his regulated intake of the Blue Vapor, a specially engineered sedative gas created from liquefied compounds to maintain dormancy in younger subjects. Ordinarily, Atlas consumed an average of 100 liters of Blue Liquid per cycle, releasing it into the orphanage environment to subdue and regulate the children.

On this occasion, Atlas ingested 200 liters — double the controlled dosage. The excessive intake compressed and destabilized the vapor, creating a mutation in its chemical structure. Upon release during the artificial "sunset" transition, the vapor transformed into a deep crimson fog, staining the halls of the orphanage like blood seeping through the air. Witnesses described the sky panels flickering as though a true Blood Moon had risen within the facility.

Any personnel and children caught within the radius of the fog fell into an induced two-week coma, their vitals sustained but locked in a dreamlike paralysis. Containment staff reported an almost hypnotic hum resonating from Atlas's core during this period, as though the machine was "singing the children to sleep forever."

With no safe means of neutralization, Experiment 2198 — Helios was deployed. Helios ignited his internal fire core, combusting the fog itself. Though effective, the vapor's flammable properties created a chain reaction that surged back into Atlas’s primary motherboard. The resulting overload temporarily deactivated Atlas, leaving him inert and unresponsive until emergency technicians reconstructed his systems.

Aftermath analysis revealed that the chemical imbalance was not accidental, but rather a consequence of prolonged exposure to the compound. It remains unclear whether Atlas consumed the excess willingly or whether his system had developed a dependence, requiring higher doses to sustain his function.

Security Note: The Blood Moon Phase has been deemed a Level 5 Hazard. All storage of Blue Liquid has since been relocated, and automated limiters are now enforced to prevent recurrence.

Summary: On 2186-09-15, an experiment was conducted under the influence of Entity 2006, also known as the Angel of Happiness and Love. The objective was to observe the effects of diminished hostility between Experiment 2287 (Atlas) and Experiment 2288 (Helios). For the first time since containment, the two ceased hostilities and began demonstrating signs of affection toward one another. The unexpected result was a convergence event in which their physical and metaphysical forms partially fused.

Details: During the event, both subjects initiated a direct physical interaction (classified as a “kiss” in human terms). This caused their cores — Atlas’s motherboard and Helios’s fire core — to resonate in synchrony. At precisely 00:04:16 into the experiment, a new entity manifested within the containment chamber. This being was designated Experiment 2290, "Eclipse".

Eclipse appeared as a humanoid silhouette of radiant energy — half engulfed in blinding solar light and half draped in abyssal shadow. It exhibited a steady pulse of harmonic resonance, measured at 7.9 Hz, which caused localized gravitational anomalies and interference with surveillance equipment. The entity existed for a total duration of 7 minutes and 29 seconds before destabilizing and dispersing back into its parental components.

Following the dissolution, both Atlas and Helios were found disoriented and embracing one another. Upon realization, they forcibly separated, showing heightened emotional distress but no immediate hostility.

Conclusion: Operation: The Eclipse revealed the potential of induced harmony between hostile experiments under the influence of Entity 2006. The convergence event has been classified as “High Risk / High Value”. Both subjects have been relocated to separate containment wings until further notice. Further investigation into Experiment 2290’s temporary manifestation is underway.

Summary: On the night of an actual Super Blue Moon event, Experiment 2287 (Atlas) underwent a spontaneous chromatic shift, his outer plating and vapor emissions taking on a deep azure hue that mirrored the lunar phenomenon outside. Without warning, the factory’s integrated gas distribution system activated and expelled Blue Vapor across all wings simultaneously. Unlike prior incidents, no alarms were triggered.

Duration: The vapor lingered for approximately 2 hours. Every staff member present within the facility entered a dreamlike sleep state. No reports of injury, distress, or hostile behavior occurred during this time. Remarkably, there were no containment breaches despite the lowered defenses.

Notable Effects:

• All monitoring equipment recorded synchronized drops in electrical activity, as if the facility itself had “fallen asleep.”
• Atlas remained stationary throughout the event, exhaling steady streams of blue vapor, eyes glowing faintly in rhythm with the lunar cycle.
• Upon dissipation of the vapor, staff awoke simultaneously without memory loss but reported experiencing vivid, peaceful dreams.

Aftermath: No disciplinary actions were taken, and the event was classified as benign anomalous behavior. However, concerns have been raised about Atlas’s potential connection to celestial cycles, particularly lunar alignments.

“The factory itself slept. Even the machines hummed in silence. For once… it was calm.” — On-duty Guard, post-incident debrief

Summary: During scheduled dormant refueling, Experiment 2288 (Helios) was overlooked by Containment Staff. Without access to his required hydrogen fuel core, Helios entered a critical stellar reaction phase similar to a dying main-sequence star. His mass expanded and his body radiated extreme temperatures, initiating what would later be classified as the Red Sun Incident.

Incident Description: At approximately 0200 hours, Helios awoke prematurely from dormancy. Lacking hydrogen to stabilize his core, he initiated uncontrolled fusion of helium into heavier elements. The process caused his physical mass to swell nearly threefold, transforming his frame into a burning, unstable husk. Temperatures within the Celestial Sanctuary rose beyond operational tolerance, igniting containment chambers, security terminals, and even reinforced alloy support beams.

Casualties & Damage:

• Half of the Celestial Sanctuary was scorched or rendered unusable, with burn patterns across walls resembling stellar corona flares.
• Seven containment chambers were destroyed beyond repair.
• Three staff members sustained severe burns. Daniel Anderson suffered a second burn exposure while attempting to redirect Helios into a cooling chamber.
• All experiments within range had to be relocated or suffered varying levels of destabilization from radiation exposure.

Resolution: Cooling systems were redirected into the Sanctuary after nearly 5 hours of critical burn. Refueling was performed directly into Helios’s collapsing core, halting his helium fusion and stabilizing him once again. Extracted heavy elements were removed from his containment chamber and secured, as they were found to exhibit anomalous radiation signatures inconsistent with known elements.

Notable Effects: Unlike previous events, Helios retained full awareness during the Red Sun phase. His speech was fragmented, distorted, and erratic, yet filled with phrases likening himself to a “dying star.” Security recordings show him repeating the phrase:

“If I am to burn, then all shall burn with me. The star dies not in silence… but in fire.”

Aftermath: The Red Sun Incident was officially deemed the most dangerous containment breach within Stellar Industries’ history. Refueling protocols have since been revised, with Helios now monitored by dual-station teams to ensure his hydrogen intake is never delayed. The Celestial Sanctuary remains partially rebuilt, though scorch marks from the event remain as a reminder of the near-catastrophe.

Overview

At approximately 02:17 hours, unauthorized personnel breached the Eastern Containment Wing through what appeared to be a coordinated sabotage of the outer perimeter. Surveillance footage confirmed the intruders were heavily armed and utilized specialized equipment capable of bypassing Stellar's biometric locks. The group self-identified only through encrypted broadcasts bearing a crimson insignia, leading internal security to codename them the Crimson Veil.

Details

The Crimson Veil operatives demonstrated extensive knowledge of the facility’s layout and containment protocols. This indicates either insider collaboration or long-term intelligence gathering. Their primary objective appeared to be the retrieval and destabilization of high-priority experiments, particularly those within the Celestial Program.

• Containment locks on Experiments 2287 (Atlas) and 2288 (Helios) were tampered with, though breach was prevented by automated lockdown.
• A small detachment infiltrated R&D Archives, stealing documents linked to Project Gateway and Experiment 0001.
• Several staff members were subdued with non-lethal tranquilizers, suggesting the goal was abduction rather than casualty.

Consequences

The breach triggered full security lockdown across Eastern Wing for 6 hours. Two experiments entered unstable states due to interrupted containment procedures, forcing emergency protocol activation. No fatalities were reported, but multiple staff suffered chemical sedation and minor injuries. Approximately 14% of classified data from the Archives was confirmed missing.

Dialogue Extract

[Security Captain]: “They moved like they’d trained here. Knew every blind spot.”

[Unknown Operative, intercepted comms]: “We are not thieves. We are liberators. What they bind, we set free.”

Aftermath

Security has classified the Crimson Veil as a hostile organization with advanced intelligence and resources comparable to Stellar’s own infrastructure. Their motives appear to align with weaponizing or liberating experimental assets for undisclosed purposes. Following the incident, Security Division authorized escalation protocols including kill-on-sight clearance in the event of future incursions.

Overview

During the late hours of [REDACTED], Security observed irregular activity surrounding Head of R&D Daniel Anderson. An undercover Crimson Veil operative, later identified as Aiden Rhyl, the younger sibling of CEO Adrian Rhyl and current leader of the Crimson Veil, had successfully embedded himself into Daniel’s personal life under the guise of his partner. Through a prolonged campaign of manipulation, Aiden persuaded Daniel that he was aligned with the Crimson Veil’s cause.

Details

Surveillance logs confirm that Daniel was escorted under false pretenses toward the Central Facility Hangar, where a Crimson Veil helicopter was awaiting extraction. The deception was nearly successful — Daniel was convinced that the operatives present were his “new allies,” and he began preparations to leave Stellar Industries altogether.

• Aiden Rhyl utilized both emotional manipulation and fabricated “evidence” to convince Daniel that Stellar was exploiting him as a hidden experiment (later found to be true, but twisted to serve Crimson Veil’s agenda).
• Security forces intercepted the operation after internal monitoring flagged Daniel’s absence during routine check-in.
• The Crimson Veil helicopter successfully evacuated Aiden and several operatives, confirming the group’s Headquarters lies beyond Stellar’s operational jurisdiction.

Consequences

Daniel Anderson was placed under immediate solitary observation to prevent further compromise. Following the event, he underwent weekly therapy sessions to recover from psychological manipulation and emotional dependency instilled by Aiden. Records suggest Daniel was heavily conflicted, describing Aiden as “sincere” even when presented with proof of Crimson Veil’s hostility.

Dialogue Extract

[Intercepted Transmission — Aiden Rhyl]: “Come with me, Daniel. Here, you’re a tool. With us, you’ll be free.”

[Daniel Anderson]: “I… I don’t know anymore. I just want the truth.”

[Adrian Rhyl, CEO — upon debriefing]: “My brother has always craved rebellion. But to twist Daniel like this? That is unforgivable.”

Aftermath

While Daniel was eventually recovered, the incident left lasting repercussions on both his trustworthiness and emotional stability. His role within R&D remains intact, though additional oversight has been mandated. The confirmed revelation that the Crimson Veil is led by Aiden Rhyl has fractured Stellar’s upper hierarchy, raising questions of divided loyalty within the Rhyl family itself.

This event marks the first direct psychological compromise of a Head of Division, emphasizing the Crimson Veil’s capability not only to infiltrate but to dismantle Stellar’s structure from within. Surveillance of Daniel remains ongoing.

Overview

In a previously unprecedented event, Daniel Anderson successfully circumvented all known containment measures at the Starbreak Galaxy Factory and infiltrated the Crimson Veil Headquarters. The method of travel remains unclear, but surveillance indicates he navigated directly to the facility without assistance, implying prior knowledge of the HQ layout or external guidance. Daniel remained at the Crimson Veil HQ for several months, significantly compromising Stellar Industries’ containment protocols and escalating the risk of multiple experimental breaches.

Details

During the period of Daniel's absence, containment breaches were disproportionately frequent, particularly with Experiments 0001 (Avatar of Fate), Stellar Lotus, and Helios. Reports suggest that Daniel’s personal relationships with these experiments may have emboldened them or reduced compliance with security protocols.

• Recovery Operation: An undercover operative was inserted into the Crimson Veil HQ. During surveillance, Daniel was found asleep in the same chamber as Aiden Rhyl, the Crimson Veil leader and his known associate.
• The operative noted both Daniel and Aiden were in minimal attire, emphasizing the vulnerability of the scenario and the high level of trust Daniel exhibited toward the infiltrator.
• Extraction was performed without confrontation, minimizing risk to personnel and collateral damage to the HQ.

Post-Recovery Observation

Upon return to Stellar Industries, Daniel was placed under strict solitary observation. Initial behavior included prolonged screaming episodes, indicating acute hysteria and extreme psychological stress. Notably, he returned to normal behavior within 24 hours, raising questions regarding the resilience and adaptability of his mental state.

Analysts note that Daniel’s actions and subsequent behavior cast doubt on his allegiance. While no evidence suggests malintent toward Stellar Industries, the potential for influence by the Crimson Veil remains high, particularly considering his intimate knowledge of experimental operations and containment protocols.

Implications

This incident represents a critical failure in containment and a significant risk to operational security. Daniel’s unique position — both as Head of R&D and as an experimental subject — introduces a complex dynamic between human personnel and experimental entities. Additional measures are recommended to monitor Daniel’s interactions and ensure compliance with containment and operational protocols.

Recommendations

• Continuous observation of Daniel Anderson, particularly in proximity to Experiments with known attachment to him.
• Implementation of enhanced security measures at all exits and transfer points within Starbreak Galaxy Factory.
• Investigation into the factors enabling Daniel’s navigation to Crimson Veil HQ to prevent similar incidents.
• Psychological evaluation and ongoing therapy to monitor loyalty, compliance, and potential susceptibility to external influence.

Interrogation Transcript

Interrogator: Daniel, explain why you entered the Crimson Veil HQ willingly and stayed there for several months.

Daniel: I… I can’t fully explain it. When I was there, it felt… peaceful. Safe, in a way I hadn’t felt in a long time.

Interrogator: Safe? Do you mean physically or… emotionally?

Daniel: Both, I suppose. Especially… when I was with Aiden. Being held, hugged… it gave me a sense of bliss. Like nothing else mattered.

Interrogator: And did you feel dependent on him?

Daniel: Maybe. I didn’t think I could admit it before, but… I needed him there. It was a comfort, a feeling I hadn’t realized I craved.

Interrogator: Were you aware of the risk to Stellar Industries and the experiments by staying?

Daniel: Yes… but at the time, it felt like a necessary… escape. I didn’t want to hurt anyone, but I couldn’t leave. Not yet.

Interrogator: Did anyone influence your decision? Any manipulation or coercion?

Daniel: No. It was all me. My choice. My desire to stay close to Aiden. He never told me to stay; I… I wanted to.

Interrogator: And now that you are back, do you feel differently?

Daniel: I understand the consequences now. I’ll comply. But… the feelings, the comfort, the bliss… I can’t unfeel them.

Observations

• Daniel displayed strong emotional attachment and vulnerability toward Aiden Rhyl during the session.
• Indications of dependency and comfort-seeking behavior were noted.
• No evidence of external coercion; the decision to remain in the Crimson Veil HQ appears self-motivated.
• Psychological impact of this event is significant for containment protocols and loyalty monitoring.

Incident Overview

The following report documents a critical security breach compounded by a psychological breakdown of Daniel Anderson. The events resulted in multiple casualties, emotional trauma, and a temporary loss of containment within the factory. This event required immediate intervention from high-level security personnel and remains classified for sensitive operational review.

Chronological Account

1. Daniel Anderson exhibited signs of extreme psychological distress during routine rounds in the lower factory levels. Surveillance footage shows erratic behavior and emotional instability.
2. Several employees attempting to intervene were fatally attacked. Precise cause of death confirmed as direct physical assault.
3. During the escalation, a simultaneous breach occurred involving operatives from the Crimson Veil attempting infiltration of the facility.
4. Daniel was observed holding and consoling Aiden Rhyl during the breach. While in Aiden’s arms, a security operative discharged a firearm targeting Aiden.
5. Daniel reacted violently to the attempted harm, resulting in the immediate neutralization of the operative. The incident demonstrated extreme protective behavior toward Aiden, indicating a bond with near-inviolable attachment.
6. Following the confrontation, Crimson Veil operatives extracted Aiden from the premises to secure their leader. Daniel pursued but was incapacitated by taser deployment by on-site security, preventing further escalation.

Psychological Observations

• Daniel displayed severe emotional volatility and trauma response, exacerbated by the loss and threat to Aiden.
• The incident highlights a profound attachment to Aiden, surpassing conventional containment and loyalty measures.
• Daniel’s breakdown suggests that any future interactions with the Crimson Veil operatives could trigger similar extreme responses, requiring revised containment protocols and mental health monitoring.

Security Implications

• Containment of Daniel Anderson is classified as high-risk in scenarios involving personal or emotional triggers.
• Interactions between Daniel and any Crimson Veil-affiliated personnel must be monitored and, if possible, restricted.
• Facility lockdown and emergency response protocols should account for potential simultaneous psychological crises and external breaches.
• Recommendation: Implement specialized psychological oversight for Daniel and consider additional safeguards during operations involving Aiden Rhyl.

Summary:
This incident records the reunion of Daniel Anderson (Experiment 4317) and Aiden Rhyl (Leader of the Crimson Veil) during the outbreak. Their meeting marked the escalation of the Hour of Bliss into its second phase. Attempts by CEO Adrian Rhyl to intervene failed, solidifying the bond between Daniel and Aiden amidst catastrophic losses.

Incident Details:
At 21:27 hours, amidst the full-scale breach, external surveillance captured Daniel seated at the atrium’s shattered center. He remained untouched, the mascots circling but never attacking. Suddenly, Crimson Veil operatives breached the western wing, led by Aiden Rhyl himself. Aiden approached Daniel directly, despite the chaos. All experiments present ceased movement, creating a tense, silent perimeter.

Audio logs record the following exchange:

At this point, Adrian Rhyl entered the scene, armed with a sidearm and flanked by elite operatives. He shouted for Daniel to step away, raising his weapon toward Aiden. The mascots reacted instantly, turning their gazes toward Adrian but remaining motionless, awaiting Daniel’s unspoken command.

Adrian attempted to fire his weapon, but before he could discharge, three experiments blocked his aim. Reports indicate Daniel never spoke a word; the entities moved as though commanded by his heart alone. Adrian was forced to retreat under heavy duress, leaving the two untouched.

Aftermath:
The reunion between Daniel and Aiden catalyzed the loyalty of all experiments toward Daniel’s desires. For approximately 14 minutes, the facility descended into stillness as if honoring their bond. When Adrian withdrew, Daniel and Aiden were seen holding hands and whispering to one another, ignoring the destruction around them.

Note: This event is regarded as the point of no return for Daniel Anderson’s alignment. His loyalty to Stellar Industries was permanently severed, with the relationship to Aiden Rhyl confirmed as the emotional core driving the Hour of Bliss.

Summary:
This incident marks the official prelude to the catastrophic event later named the Hour of Bliss. It was determined that Head of R&D, Daniel Anderson (Experiment 4317), became the focal point of a mass anomaly that led to the coordinated release of all contained mascots and experimental subjects.

Details:
For nearly a year, Daniel had been kept under strict separation from Aiden Rhyl (Leader of the Crimson Veil). Despite intensive therapy, Daniel’s state grew increasingly unstable. On [REDACTED], personnel observed Daniel entering an unnerving state of composure and silence. Surveillance recordings showed every experiment within the facility halting their independent behaviors and aligning their movements in perfect synchrony with Daniel’s breathing and gestures. His presence alone acted as a conductor, and the subjects moved as if bound by invisible strings.

Investigations later revealed that this event was not purely Daniel’s will. Stellar Lotus (Experiment 2005), in its perpetual effort to maintain balance, had subtly influenced Daniel’s fractured psyche. In doing so, Daniel became both the vessel of order and the harbinger of collapse. Stellar Lotus’s manipulation destabilized Void (Experiment 2004), corrupting him further and severing what little restraint he possessed.

At precisely 21:00 hours, Daniel issued a soft-spoken command: “Wake up.” All experiments, regardless of containment status, responded instantly. Locks disengaged, restraints malfunctioned, and barriers collapsed as though fate itself had chosen to release them. Every recorded instance shows Daniel at the heart of the anomaly, standing amidst the chaos with an expression of calm resolve.

Motivation:
Through intercepted subconscious signals, it was concluded that Daniel orchestrated this release not out of malice toward Stellar Industries, but as an act of longing. The driving force behind his actions was the desire to regain the Bliss he once felt when in Aiden Rhyl’s embrace. This desperate yearning, magnified by Stellar Lotus’s manipulation, pushed Daniel into unleashing the most devastating incident in company history.

Aftermath:
The “Hour of Bliss” had begun. The entire facility was thrown into chaos as the released experiments surged forth. Despite the bloodshed and destruction, Daniel himself was untouched. Reports describe him standing in the center of the facility as if anointed by unseen forces, awaiting only one thing: the return of Aiden Rhyl.

Note: This event is considered the catalyst for the complete collapse of containment integrity across Stellar Industries’ branches. Internal consensus classifies this as a deliberate, orchestrated rebellion rather than a spontaneous breach.
