Istrati Labyrinth

The **Istrati Labyrinth Warehouse** *(イストラティラビリンス Isutoratirabirinsu)* was once an military warehouse located in Lyantor, Dranon. It's hollowed appearance freckled in grime and incessant graffiti displays the warehouse's true nature of horror, especially a self mentioned flame. The warehouse sits in the dense grassy overgrowth beyond the outskirts of Lyantor.

## Profile

The warehouse was once used for military grade supplies for storage under order from the Lyantor army. Years pass by as the warehouse was seemingly left abandoned, a group of students from Fedulov Urvan Militia College transformed the place into an all out paintball arena equipped with a stone wall labyrinth. After frequent use of the place, one of the students grasp for air before falling lifeless to the ground during one round of paintball. Yulian Lavrov, the one of the team's paintball legends, was known for creating stationary fires and adored the scent of smoke. Urban explorers prowling around Dranon are self aware for Yulian's whereabouts and his faviourite thing to do: Create a pillar of fire in random locations throughout the labyrinth.

The sources for the warehouse gaining paranormal activity stirred by the legendary paintball student have been caught by curiosity from other explorers. They have even witnessed two massive metal yellow doors, graffitied with "Do NOT OPEN" in red, along with warning triangle. Speculation about the labyrinth conjures theories whether as to who or what is beyond those yellow doors. Faint growling to eerie knocks against metal, time would only tell as the labyrinth continues to rest in the shadows.

### The Stardust DRAKEN Exploration

Yura Draken, Romain Dragonful, and Hunter Snow decide to visit the place while pacting an agreement over Tamer NET in regards of a 3AM challenge. Once they arrive, Romain feels unsettled and explains his last time visit to the place. During the ECLIPSE, he was all alone, thoroughly investigating the abandoned place. Apart from the litter strewn beside the stone walls, and a splash of graffiti across gray, Dragonful finds a white towel smothered in blood, in reminiscent to the appearance of a Ragna Board. Hunter agapes at the mention of the board, sending chills down his spine. Yura beckons the two forward as they dodge shattered glass panes and splintering wood. The air felt cold right upon entry, Snow unleashing his first cold exhale. With drastic Absolute zero temperature change, both Yura and Romain begin to communicate with Yulian via K-2 and SB7. After several yellow spikes, and a churn of static emitting from the device, the group stumbles on a familiar long time member of thiers. Marco Seidlitz joins the exploration, stating that he had a lot of bullshit to do with his girlfriend back in Nyurba. Hunter introduces himself to Marco, the blonde veteran urbex mage remarking out the returning greeting in careless Dranian. Yura, tampering with the camera, adjusts the focus on all three of them before it went out of focus on Hunter. The brown haired skater felt tense during the second half, feeling rather lightheaded during the course of a Ragna Board séance. The flames on the candles grow brighter around the four, hands still on the planchette. One last question mediated by Romain unleashes a faint thud from the yellow doors. The flames dim down as they all exhale in disbelief.

Cautiously approaching the doors, They all dare Hunter to slide it open, the Overlander skater retaliating in annoyance. Being the brave one, Marco grips the handle slides the groaning door open. An extra undiscovered room tainted in dark mold and rotting steel recapitulates the group into quiet suspense. Larger in size than Silver Flame's Murder Room, silence fills the air, the SB7 rocking the group into tight fear. "Fire" it said. Let there be fire and there was fire among the midst of the shadows. With the flames gathering dangerously close to Snow, a shadow figure runs towards them with a sharp pickaxe in rage. Loud footsteps echo within the cursed room, the group fleeing in fright.

## Trivia
