Extraction Report

Attn — Lord Inquisitor Umbra Nox —

We have found what you believe to be Inquisitor Fayne, however, the being we've taken into custody appears to be Eldar in race but matches the pict, description, and last known whereabouts of Inquisitor Fayne. We have found her on a some what hostile world, the heat and the mild toxicity of the atmosphere would be unsuitable for prolonged human habitation. On this world we located a large bio-sign turning out to be a large crystalline forest with humanoid like shapes made of what I believe to be the same material all located in the crater of a dormant volcano. Touching the crystal structures would cause them to disintegrate. Amongst the forest was the inquisitor, encased inside a massive crystal. I had struck the crystal with a power axe in an attempt to free and apprehend the inquisitor, but instead of the crystal crumbling the crystal exploded with tremendous force injuring those around.

It is my belief that this one of the sites the Eldar consider sacred and that we should vacate the area with great haste.

And to voice a concern, the crystal shards seemed to evaporate upon contact with the away team. We may be contaminated with some unknown xeno tech.

I will be watching for any signs or symptoms in the following personal:
