Athens, Greece, April 27, 1994, 7:31 a.m.
"Igan, you will be late for school," Jadeya screamed.
...
"Igan!" The silence in the Igan room was deafening, so Jadeya yelled again for answers.
"Igan?" Jadeya stormed along the halls to the Igan chamber and yanked open the creaking door.
Igan's body hurt as a blanket crushed against him in the corner of his room, separating him from the rest of the world. "Igan?" , "What's up, sweetheart?" Jadeya's voice softened as she mirrored his moves. She moved closer to Igan.
Tears stream from his leaky eyes as he tilts his head to the side, away from his mother. "Oh, sweetheart, why are you crying?" her tone was solemn.
Igan brushed off her remark, breathing deeply and crying up. Jadeya's expression was mournful and remorseful.
"Take a look at me, sweetie. Please explain what is wrong. Mommy can make you something special, okay?" Jadeya suppresses her feelings and settles for a voice.
Igan burst into tears, the weight of despair pressing down on him as he struggled to reply.
"Don't! "Act like nothing wrong, when you clearly know what's going on!" Igan's heart was wrenched with anguish. "Please don't go, please." "Please, you promise you won't leave me! Igan wailed gratefully onto the bedsheets as Jadeya wrapped her arms around him, warming him.
Jadeya struggled to keep the tears at bay. "Mommy is not going anywhere, baby." Jadeya couldn't hold back her emotions any longer. "Mommy is not going anywhere, I would Always be there for you..."
Jadeya dried her eyes and swallowed her sorrow. "You're my hero, baby, and if there is anyone in the whole wide world, I know I could count on you." , "I want you to be strong, ok, baby?" As she wiped Igan's tears, Jadeya grinned. Igan's head was caressed.
"In my dismal world, I had never seen such a gorgeous woman and a wonderful, powerful mother."

Athena, Greece
"At that time, my mother would leave my dark world again." "It's somewhat of an anchor, a pain in the ass," Dr. Igan said resentfully. He folded the photograph of the cryptic relic he had been studying for years, calling it "the most precious thing in the world and a precious promise I want to live up to." Dr. Igan looks up at the stars in the gloomy metropolis of Athens, a gorgeous sky torching in the black morning in the distance. "But sometimes, life doesn't have nice things," he added, folding his arms on the balcony railings. "Be her little hero," my mom encouraged me.
"Like any kid would, I would be strong too, but I'd fake it." "I couldn't resist falling for her; she died unfairly," Dr. Igan replied, looking down the balcony. Dr. Igan completes the picture: "That's why I won't hesitate to do the same as her—the sacrifice."
While compiling the papers and material, Dr. Burg listened to Igan. He then completed calculating the paperwork and crept up to Dr. Igan on the balcony, marveling at Athena's beautiful sky. "You made the right choice, Igan." Dr. Burg folded his arms and remarked, "Your mom would be proud of you." The quiet and the early, magnificent sky brought the situation to a halt.
"Well, I have the information and the documents." "Let's get out of here; we've got some agents who have business to do," Dr. Burg said, breaking the stillness. "Yeah, I will be right there," he answered as he collected the paperwork from Igan's home office. Dr. Igan cleans his nose and eyes. "And Doc?" Dr. Burg came to a halt and asked, "Yeah?" Burg responded.
Dr.Igan While looking at the paperwork Dr. Burg was holding, he scratched his scalp and caressed his brown hair. "The information documents are quite old; information hasn't been updated since 1976." I attempted to contact the SCP Foundation with updated information and data, but I need permission to do so. To do so, we will need to notify the boarding staff."
"Not really; if you have contacted an agent, then the process is much easier and slimmer." Dr. Burg swung the door open by tapping the doorway entrance with the three orange files. "And oh yeah, don't forget to pick that case the way out; those things have snacks and important things." Dr. Burg gives Dr. Ian another look before leaving.
"Why would you put those two things together in the case?" Dr. Igan questioned himself. He quickly followed Dr. Burg after grabbing the suitcase.

The automobile approached the S23FS gateway when it encountered two MTF-zeta (Viper Tongue) patrolers.
The Two patrollers approached with caution, and asked for both of the scientists' identities, Dr. Igan and Dr. Burg signaled the Patrollers their identification allowing them to access the gate-away.

As the site was constructed on the surfaces outside the crater, the site vista was the ice-capped mountain encircling the massive pit and its dazzling depth. The enormity of the sinkhole is evident, and as Dr. Burg and Igan flew over it in the Apache chopper, peering over the site and landing near the facility, the researchers skewed the site: "The site is quite lively today." As the walloping helicopter wings landed on firm ground, Dr. Burg shouted. "Indeed," Dr. Igan said, their clothes swaying in the breeze.
...
On their way out, a man in a black trench coat greets them. "Good morning, Drs. Burg and Igan. "It's been years since we met, aye?" they say. They exchange a handshake and are greeted.
"This site has not been so lively for many years if I recall, Dr. Jose," said Dr. Igan. The three guys walked to the building site, where they met a scientist and researchers on their way to the elevator that would take them to the abyss.
"Of course, Igan." "If I am not mistaken, you have a meeting with some guy named Murphy Lawden, if I'm correct?" The elevator descended the tracks, with some elevators ascending and some descending in the view. "Yes, Dr. Jose," Dr. Burg said tentatively.
The crater's interior is a jumble of constructions erected into it. The sinkhole depth descends into a city where gateways were created outside the old city, and a giant circular entrance hatched at the bottom revealing the city, with the fluorescent light lighting the darkened cave.
The elevator took them to their destination, where Murphy was waiting for them in the office. The three of them emerged from the elevator in the following manner: "I heard a lot about Murphy; he could be the attention attracting the researchers' interest; also, I have heard he has some direction with reality flattening, so I advise you guys to stay alert and please take care." Dr. Jose dismisses the three of them as follows: "Yes, we will. Jose," Dr. Igan said as both Igan and Burg were taken to the desired room by two MTF-Reta:Vipers.
"I doubt that Murphy Lawden could bring the site alive." Dr. Igan informed Dr. Burg as the two of them headed to the corridor and through the corridors. "I'm afraid so, Igan." "Could it mean something must have happened in these squandered years?" Dr. Burg spoke with skepticism.
"That's something I would want to know, and the SCP Foundation." Dr. Igan summed it up by saying,
"Well, we find the items we carried and our answers in the Murphy Lawden Office." Dr. Burg's response was solemn.
"Our answers lie beyond that door."
