Grooves on the sides, and just slightly more give than a wall by rights should have.

"Come see this," she invites Brin.

Permalink

She shows her the panel. "Got any ideas that don't involve exploding this?"

Permalink

She pokes it at various points.

"...Feels like the hinge is at the top, maybe? Near the clouds." The scene is of a stormy battle, bestial monsters and faceless soldiers. Lightning bolts stab down at the soldiers.

Permalink

Is there anything she can use to pull the bottom part, then?

Permalink

Nothing obvious.

Unusually, the lightning bolts are shallow channels carved into the face, rather than projecting slightly outwards like the other features.

Permalink

...huh. Anything happen if she touches them?

Permalink

A small static shock.

Permalink

Brin perks up.

"Thought I heard something."

Permalink

She immediately removes her hand from there. "Yes, that was the sound of hubris." She tries again.

Permalink

Nothing happens this time.

Permalink

Hmm.

"So what was the actual sound you heard?"

Permalink

"Sort of- clicking?"

Permalink

"From where?"

Permalink

"Inside the wall."

Permalink

...she tries lightly pressing the panel.

Permalink

Nothing.

Permalink

She tries tapping it with her nails.

Permalink

Still no response.

Permalink

"Just as I touched it?" She tries doing—other stuff to it, scratch and knock and touch and push and pull—

Permalink

"Yeah."

None of those actions produce any discernible effect.

Permalink

...okay what can the Force tell her about this if anything.

Permalink

A strange sort of hunger, not malicious or predatory or intelligent.

Permalink

...strange how.
