Outside, as MTF A-20 continues to move 1730 
researchers and personnel to safety, there is a 
deafening crackling sound, and a loud hum fills the 
air. The area around the site begins to visibly 
distort, as if being seen through water, and then 
suddenly SCP-1730 is gone. In its place is an 
immense crater, over 1km in diameter. No other 
transmissions are received from within the site. No 
other anomalous activity is detected. 


[END LOG] 
Note: In the wake of the events detailed in this log, 
SCP-1730 has been reclassified as NEUTRALIZED. 
Further investigation is ongoing. Debriefing reports will 
become available as soon as they are declassified.

[BEGIN LOG] 


Dr. Vincent: Please state your name for the 
transcript. 


AP-3 Ross: Captain Ephram Ross, Mobile Task 
Force Apollo-3. Game Wardens. 


Dr. Vincent: Thank you, Captain Ross... alright, 
let's see. Your team was directed to infiltrate 
SCP-1730 and search for the source of the radio 
signal we were receiving, is that correct? 


AP-3 Ross: It is. 
Dr. Vincent: Tell me about your initial incursion. 
AP-3 Ross: You've listened to the logs? 


Dr. Vincent: | haven't myself, no. They’re still 
being processed. 


AP-3 Ross: (Pauses) It wasn’t good in there. Best 
| can tell, wherever Site-13 came from, they were 
using it as a sort of... “end of the line” processing 
facility. Every so often we'd see placards up on 
these containment cells, about how certain things 


were due for termination. Judging by what the 
Samsara team saw, that was about the case. They 
were bringing in anomalies, doing some... invasive 
investigations to them, and then destroying them. 


Dr. Vincent: What sort of anomalies were being 
housed there, could you tell? 


AP-3 Ross: | mean, shit... it was really hard to tell. 
Somewhere along the line the power had gone out, 
and it had gone all Jurassic Park in there. Of just 
what we encountered, there was some kind of... 
encroaching blackness, that fucked up Houston’s 
legs, and... have you seen Houston? Is he alright? 


Dr. Vincent: He’s being looked at by medical right 
now, they’re going to bring him over here soon. | 
think he’s probably alright. 


AP-3 Ross: That’s good... yeah, | mean, but other 
than that, there was also this thing, | don’t know if it 
was a person or not, but it sort of bent space 
around it, and Noah... (Pauses) 


Dr. Vincent: It’s ok, we can— 


AP-3 Ross: No, this needs to be done. (Pauses) 
We took some losses, on all of the teams. It was 
bad. Based on what we saw at the end, it could’ve 
gotten a lot worse, too. 


Dr. Vincent: At the end? 


AP-3 Ross: You didn’t see it? No, you haven't 
seen the video. They had these cells down below 
the site, they must have been the size of a football 
stadium each. Hollis had them open a few up so 
we could make our retreat, and the things inside... 
one of them looked at me, like | might look at an 
ant. It was like a god, and they had them in 
boxes... | counted twenty of those cells, but that 


chamber went on a lot further past what | could 
see. (Pauses) What were they keeping in those? 
How were they keeping them in there?

die in there.

“Samsara” Team Lead 

Interviewer: Dr. Isha Saint Claire 

Mission Debrief: SCP-1730 Extraction 
Subject: SCP-1730 


Notes: The following is an audio transcript excerpt 
of an interview conducted by a member of the 
Mobile Task Force Tau-5 research team regarding 
SCP-1730. The information contained in this file is 
unconfirmed and under further review. For the full 
file, please contact the Information and Records 
Aaministrator at Site-17. 


[BEGIN LOG] 


Dr. Saint Claire: State your name for the record, 
please. 


T-5 Irantu: | am lrantu, lead of Mobile Task Force 
Tau-5, Samsara. 


Dr. Saint Claire: In your own words, please 
describe the events that took place while you were 
within SCP-1730. 


T-5 Irantu: Of course. The Tau-5 team inserted 
into SCP-1730, and began to move towards the 
source of the broadcast. Onru was able to track the 
location of the survivors, and plotted a course 
towards them that would expose us to the fewest 
spatial hazards possible. Several times our course 
had to be adjusted due to unforeseen obstacles, 
but nothing that we were not able to overcome. 
Shortly after rendezvous with Captain Hollis and 
the survivors, our extraction efforts led us through 
the section of the facility containing the Thresher 
machine, which we believe is what resulted in 
SCP-1730’s existence within our universe. Shortly 
thereafter, during our retreat, | was terminated. 


Dr. Saint Claire: | see. As for Agents Moros, Vigo, 
and the others? 


T-5 Irantu: They were also terminated. 
Dr. Saint Claire: Terminated? 
T-5 Irantu: Expired. Succumbed to their injuries. 


Dr. Saint Claire: | know what it means, Irantu, | 
just... | can’t help but feel as if you feel good about 
this. 


T-5 Irantu: | feel neither good nor bad, only 
satisfied at the outcome. 


Dr. Saint Claire: (Pauses) What? 


T-5 Irantu: Our extraction mission was a success. 
With minimal loss of life, our team was able to 


infiltrate an extremely hazardous and volatile 
spatial anomaly and extract several high-value 
persons of interest. 


Dr. Saint Claire: (Si/ence) 


T-5 lrantu: | do not know what else you would like 
me to say. We were exposed to a number of 
dangerous anomalies and were able to 
successfully carry out our mission. There were 
regrettable losses of capable and experienced 
personnel, but not outside of our margin of error. 
On the contrary, our team performed better than 
our preliminary models predicted. 


Dr. Saint Claire: | see. (Pauses) Thank you, 
lrantu, | will be sure to include your remarks in the 
report. 


T-5 lrantu: You are welcome. (Pauses) As is 
required by cooperative mission protocol, | would 
like the opportunity to debrief with Zeta-9 Captain 
Hollis. 


Dr. Saint Claire: Captain Hollis was killed within 
SCP-1730. 


T-5 lIrantu: (Si/ence) 
Dr. Saint Claire: lrantu? 


T-5 lrantu: Regrettable. Captain Hollis expressed 
great resilience in the face of near-certain failure. 
(Pauses) As protocol dictates, | will file my report 
instead with Captain Hollis’ assigned Site 
administrator's office. Thank you for your time, 
doctor.

[BEGIN LOG] 


Dr. Harris: Alright, first off | need your name for 
our logs. 


AP-3 Houston: Sure, I’m Cotter Houston, member 
of the Apollo-3 team. 


Dr. Harris: Good, good, now, Agent Houston, 
describe to me your affliction here, as much as you 
can. 


AP-3 Houston: Well, I’m sure it’s pretty clear, but | 
don’t seem to have, uh, shins, anymore. There’s 
a... there’s a line, where the thing that covered 
them up came up to, and you can sort of... sort of 
see the inside of the leg there, like it’s been 
replaced with a flat piece of glass, or something... 
but | can still, you know, | can still walk. It doesn’t 
really feel like I’m missing anything down there, it 
just looks like it. And you can, yeah, you can sort of 
run your hand through where they should be, 
obviously, because they’re not there, but... but | 


don’t feel that, either, so... yeah. 


Dr. Harris: | see. What can you tell me about this 
material you said you stepped in? 


AP-3 Houston: Fell in, actually. Or rather, | 
tripped, and it sort of just kept coming. It was, 
shit... we opened a door, and it looked like there 
wasn't anything on the other side of it. Then it 
started to... like, it started to rise through the door, 
and up the stairwell. You ever played video 
games? It was like, some sort of graphical glitch. It 
wasn't rising fast or anything, just steady. We 
eventually got to a door, but that was after | fell, 
and... then this. 


Dr. Harris: Can you tell me anything about the 
initial sensation? 


AP-3 Houston: Initial sensation? 
Dr. Harris: Did it hurt? 


AP-3 Houston: Oh. No, | mean, | didn’t realize 
what was happening at first. Everybody else was 
panicking, and then | looked down and saw they 
were gone and / started panicking, but... | mean, 
obviously | was alright. It never hurt, no. It just feels 
normal. (Pauses) Well, not normal. It’s obviously 
weird, my legs are missing, and | think | might be in 
shock, but... every now and then, | can sort of feel 
something sort of... brush past them. 


Dr. Harris: Brush past them? 


AP-3 Houston: Yeah. | mean, the parts that are 
missing down there. | thought | was imagining it at 
first, like guys who have phantom pain, but it’s... | 
mean, | can actually feel my legs, so | don’t think 
it’s that. It’s like there’s something sort of furry and 
kind of wet that just... just barely brushes past 


them. Who knows.

[BEGIN LOG] 


Cpt. O’Neil: When did you lose track of Captain 
Hollis? 


T-5 Munru: In the chaos of our retreat, Captain 
Hollis was separated from us. | do not know when. 


Cpt. O’Neil: Munru, your camera was undamaged. 
We know you spoke to her before she left. 


T-5 Munru: Damn. (Pauses) | am not very good at 
that. 


Cpt. O’Neil: Why didn’t you keep her from leaving 
your group? 


T-5 Munru: (Pauses) | only knew Captain Hollis for 
a handful of hours, but in that time she proved to 
be an experienced and capable agent. | assumed 
that any decision she would make in regards to her 
own personal behaviour would be made with her 
experiences and training in mind, both of which 
exceeded my own. Additionally, she outranked me. 


Cpt. O’Neil: Your mission parameters forbade you 
from allowing other team members from putting 
themselves in harms way, and required that you do 
everything you could to mitigate loss of life. How 
do you reconcile your actions with those 
requirements? 


T-5 Munru: Technically speaking, nothing | did 
allowed Captain Hollis to put herself in any danger. 
| could not foresee the outcome of her actions, and 
used my best judgement to justify my own. For all | 
knew, she could have been moving to a safer 
location. 


Cpt. O’Neil: Away from the group? 


T-5 Munru: It would be illogical to assume that an 
agent with her level of experience would 
purposefully endanger themselves in an 
unpredictable situation. 


Cpt. O’Neil: And you believe your justifications are 
an acceptable interpretation of your mission 
protocols? 


T-5 Munru: Of course. 


Cpt. O’Neil: Very well. When you return to holding, 
you will be meeting with Irantu to discuss this. | 
hope your arguments hold up. 


T-5 Munru: As do I.

[BEGIN LOG] 
Dr. Arnold: Why did you pursue Captain Hollis? 


T-5 Onru: | believed | understood Captain Hollis’ 
intentions before she left the group, based on her 
discussions with the team leads before we began 
our extraction. | feared that she might have not 
been capable of returning along our previous 
course without my assistance. 


Dr. Arnold: Your recording equipment went dark 
for a long period before becoming active again in 
the Thresher area. What happened during that 
time? 


T-5 Onru: (Silence) 


Dr. Arnold: Onru, | am going to need an answer. 


T-5 Onru: | disabled the equipment. There was... 
(pauses) there was a room we passed through that 
was different than it had been before. It was the 
server room, above the Olympia containment cells. 
| do not... | do not know how our path ended there, 
| had not intended it to. It was a mistake. When we 
entered, it was on the room it had been, but... 


Dr. Arnold: What do you mean?
