This story is a sequel to [EAW] Grover VI's Unexpected "Meeting"

When 'Führer' Katerinburg ordered the dispatch of an excavation team to the Griffonstone, he only expected some ancient relics that might help him revision the Griffonian History to fit his world view.

And even though they found the relics he wanted, they also discovered a rather inexplicable artifact, that was unique in countless ways. Initially, Archeologists considered it to be the “forerunner of a discovery of a new civilization” … And that was before they discovered the potentially supernatural side of it.

The strange aurora of the box did not go unnoticed, and it soon attracted the interest of archeologists. And when the authorities ordered the transfer of the discovery to Hellquill, things got peculiar real fast. One of the agents they send to recover the artifact died only a couple of hours after arriving in Hellquill, and the other one went insane soon after. Wingfried von Katerinburg orders an urgent meeting to be held over the mysterious relic, simply having no idea what he is about to cause…
