Lora's Map of 7 Monolith Village

Lora's map can be read in the Monolith's hut in Omega Mart, or bought from the Meow Wolf giftshop.

## Transcript

**Location/Entry 1 - Rooftop**

This is one of my favorite spots in 7 Monolith. I come here a lot when I need to slow down and cool my head and "chill out." When we were younger, Ximena and sometimes Jesse and I would watch the sunset. It was so beautiful and natural. These days the sunset is different. Still beautiful, but the effects of runoff changes it. More colorful, but heavy. Feels like a lie now.

**Location/Entry 2, Abandoned Cafe**

This was the place I met my first crush. His name was Tealeve. We shared a soda. Charlie said kids used to do that in the 1950s. He's so old. Before Dramcorp built the factory out here, this building was a cafe. All of these places were used for something.  So many are empty now. Ghosts from a previous time. Tealeve and his parents left because of the runoff. I wonder what he's up to now.

**Location/Entry 3 - Sister's Dwelling**

This is where our ideas are born. This is where we spend hours planning for the future. Here in this dwelling I found my purpose and discovered my convictions. It's where I made the plan to gain employment at Omega Mart. Crawl inside the machine and combust.

**Location/Entry 4 - Outside 7 Mon in the Desert**

Best place to scream at the top of your lungs right here. Outside of the village. No one around to be bothered by our fierce high pitched shrieks or low guttural growls. It's also the place Marin and I laughed so hard I thought we were going to explode or implode or just evaporate out of existence. I used to do this a lot with Marin. Wish I could again. We're going to find you Marin. I promise.

**Location/Entry 5 - Private Dramcorp Road to the Factory, August 17, 2020**

Laid broken glass and sharp metal scraps in the road here. The new Dramcorp trucks are obnoxious and a huge pain in the ass. As a result of the previous delays we caused, Dramcorp has gotten wise and upped their gear game. The new trucks gave a higher clearance and much thicker tires both of which increase off-road capabilities. A piece of scrap metal got stuck in the right front tire. Short halt while the driver removed, inspected, and discarded the metal shard. No puncture. Need sharper and heavier-duty scraps.

**Location/Entry 6 - Biggest Abandoned Building in 7 Mon**

What's going on here sucks, but maybe there's a bronze lining? I don't think that's a thing. At first the abandoned buildings made me so sad, then I realized that I could occupy them again with my art, my paint, my style. Some days I'll just throw up a small piece, be on my way, but I'm just as likely to spend all day and night taking a piece end-to-end.

**Location 7 - Omega Mart**

Whatever Dramcorp is putting in all the Omega Mart products, the mysterious "innovative" Additive S, I think they're also using it or some form of it as a literal power source. I don't have proof and I'm not even sure yet what I'd be proving, but there's something going on below the surface of the company's above board appearance. We killed the electric, I know we did. I'm sure of it, but then there was this hum and the closer I listened the more it felt like it was in my head. Anyway, we heard the windbreakers of the Dramcops and split just in time to not get made. So I'm pretty pissed as I write this. Wendell says I should write an article on Dramcorp and the effects they've had on the desert. He even said he'd help me. I don't know we'll see.

**Location 8 - Canyon Wall**

This is the place where the run off has had the biggest effect on the natural landscape. It's nearly incomprehensible to look at. The stream seeps right into the rock warping and manipulating the stone sheets. Ancient beings watch over this land disappointed and saddened with what we've done. The result; Plants and animals twisted and distorted like a dream and reality got into a fight or fell in love. Either way this place is different now. The run off doesn't just affect the plants and animals here. I've watched the number on the population sign be crossed out and subtracted countless times... The last cross out was for Marin. No more.
