You are standing on what appears to be an expanse of black
glass. Beneath your feet perfectly straight lines form enormous,
web-like patterns, glowing with a bluish-green light. The sky is
a uniform pale grey, and the horizon seem to be much too close.
Above you, to the north-east, towers a gigantic structure; a
pale blue pyramid, several hundred meters tall, standing in-
verted tip-to-tip on a smaller (some 10-20 meters tall) pyramid.
High above you, a glass road only faintly seen sweeps to the
northeast and the south.

pyramid~
It looks flat out impossible, but never the less the larger
pyramid is balanced, point-to-point, on the smaller. They are
both polished smooth, pale blue, except at a point some 30 yds
up on the larger one, where a black square hole provides en-
trance for travelers on the glass road that reach it here.
Where the pyramids intersect, they appear to be open to the air,
the larger one only supported by four faintly-glowing girders.
The pyramid is far too smooth to be climbable.

You are standing between the base of the lower pyramid (to the
north) and the crystalline structures (to the south). The upper
pyramid looms over you in a way that gives you severe doubts about
the wisdom of standing underneath what looks like a million tons,
balanced on a point...

The tower is made from the same material as the rest of the matrix;
looking closer you can see that the matrix just dips down into the moat-

continue down the hole and up the tower, but they are much more twisted
and convoluted here. Near the top of the tower there is a balcony, and
from the flat roof a glass bridge or road leads away, over the horizon
to the northeast. You can barely make out a guardian-like figure standing
on the top.
