Kraylabs

> *"Kraylabs Site 2B. What a sight to behold."*

Kraylabs is located in Krayplane, as it is a snapshot / mirror of another reality that once was. The only present staff member that somehow made it to Krayplane is Scientist. She can be typically found at Kraylabs Site 2B, the largest and most extensive labs facility.
A reoccurring theme of Kraylabs found on their documents and hypothesis is "morbid curiosity":

> *"Kraylabs is the best equipped organization to explore the abysses because a majority of the scientists who work there are already insane, and thus do not immediately care about things like giant monsters being real"* - Letterhead printed on countless documents.
>
>

Another document elaborates on the purpose and meaning of the Kraylab's letterhead. Interestingly, it speaks explicitly of another reality, one where many of the members of Kraylabs suffered an abrupt demise. It is unknown if this document is self fulfilling, as it potentially catalyzes the incident happening in the present reality. At least in theory, as this current snapshot of Kraylabs was taken from a reality mere moments after Esper Team Six embarked on their final journey:

> *"In actuality, it's a little bit more complex than that. Just because you're a human, you have an indomitable will and morbid curiosity beyond any horror that any and all universes can throw at you. However, it doesn't mean you're gonna win. In the next closest worldline, the Stockholm accident happened. But just because the accident happened, that doesn't mean that worldline's Kraylabs was for nothing. Kraylabs would have been for nothing if the scientists never gave themselves meaning and tried to fight against their circumstance. And Kraylabs wouldn't have meant anything without the efforts of Esper Team Six, even despite their overall fate. That's because Kraylabs gives itself its own meaning, even if the abyss was inherently meaningless, and to the people who experienced Kraylabs firsthand, that matters more than anything."*

There are many terminals and documents scattered around main Kraylabs Sites and smaller Outposts, hastily set up to document the horrors that lurk in the abysses in Krayplane.

## Esper Team Six

There are references to Esper Team Six. Some traces of their actions remain, though.

> *"Definitely not unkillable badasses. However, they are Kraylab's most qualified task force of Abyss explorers. Some of them probably aren't even fit to be warriors. They're the sixth task force because the previous five fucking died to the First Seraph.. They're not even plan B, they're plan F."*

As they aren't fit to be warriors, which is completely in contrary to the norm with Watcher Faction [alpha] members which Kraymen [alpha] was a member of.

## NERVE Department

A primarily security and defensive department of KrayLab. Primarily at fault for the death of the guardian angel mentioned and used in Prototype:Sanctum.

They were also the main development branch behind the 100 Environment Simulator that eventually became Prototype:Delta, Prototype:Endtimes Engine, and Prototype:Eternities Engine.

## Kraylabs Sites

### 14B

Located off to the side of the Deep Dark. A large terminal and various instruments are located right outside for easy data collection and observance of the Abyss.

> *“What do you seek?”* -- *“That which seeks me.”*

- Inscription on the main terminal located outside KrayLabs 14B.

### Crypt Outpost

Located off the Crypt Abyss. There are documentation talking about a theorized life form in the Crypt Abyss, a monster of sorts. Some charts and spreadsheets are loaded on the terminal, but a note is placed on the bottom of the screen saying:

> *"They were so concerned with what could go right, that they didn't even consider what could go wrong..."*
>

### Ocaw Outpost

This outpost is far out of the city outskirts. It's actually unknown why the outpost was set up, but there are documents and papers scattered about the defensively built fortifications. There are tanks positioned at offensive ranks outside the outpost, driven by the world government.

The standoff never ended until the timeline was grafted.

> *"...I've always been kind of curious about the question of 'what happens if you just keep evading the police forever and they never catch you'. Like 'how far can it possibly escalate'"*

### Radio KK Outpost

Prior to being hastily taken over by Kraylabs, it was the central broadcasting room of the station. Scientific measurement instruments and notepads and lab coats are scattered around. The current broadcast is of Scientists Voiceline 8 on repeat, presumably attempting to make contact with Esper Team Six.
