The Pit

The Pit is a location within the Research Sector of the Oldest House. It is the deepest region of the Active Threshold.
==Background==
The Pit was the originating point of the Mold outbreak within the Oldest House, where the source of the Mold, an entity classified by Raya Underhill as Mold-1, took residence.
==Layout==
The Pit is only accessible via the side mission Old Growth, after Dr. Underhill synthesizes the Mold cure pill for Jesse. Within the Active Threshold is a large pit shrouded in purple haze; at the bottom of this pit is the Active Threshold Sublevel. Another shaft found near the Active Threshold Sublevel Control Point will lead further down, into the Pit; Levitate must be used in order to mitigate fall damage.
The pit itself is a large, open arena with four rock outcroppings surrounding the center and a few more outcroppings along the walls. Initially, the ceiling of the arena is covered with a large number of explosive growths, and the area is shrouded with Mold fumes around the central growth from which Mold-1 emerges. After Mold-1 is defeated, a new room will be opened up to the side, in which The Pit Control Point can be found. This Control Point is the only way to exit the Pit.
Upon subsequent returns to the area, there will no longer be explosive growths on the ceiling of the arena, and Mold-1's central growth will have disappeared.
