You toss it over at Alexis, who is by far still your squishiest ally here.
You try to ignore the piercing gaze that Wendy is giving the PARADIGM you were using. It's clear she TOLERATES using them if need be but she's still uncomfortable around them.
That's when you hear Quentin calling for you.
"Yes?" You head over to see what Quentin saw over through the Drone, which is now safely resting at his feet. (heh. Drone using a Drone.) <span class="mu-r">Why the fuck is there a bullet hole in it?</span>
>-1 CHARGE ON AERIAL DRONE. 1 LEFT!
"IT IS BETTER IF YOU SAW FOR YOURSELF." He hands the Aerial Drone to you so you can skim through the footage.
Skipping past the trip throughout Antlia (since there was nothing of note there), you examine what it saw at the Shopping Centre. Svet was a bit generous with her description of how big it was because while it does take up a LOT of land...
Over half of the Shopping Centre has crumbled away into rubble. Everything from the right/east of the main entrance of the massive three story Shopping Centre has crumbled into piles of concrete and metal and frankly, it's a shock it's still structurally intact.
On closer examination, there's a massive interlocking mass of plant matter, bark, and leaves growing out of the ruin. The latticework of plant material is pressing up against the the eastern side of the building, keeping the rest of it standing up. Most of said plant matter is off blue wood and bark...similar to Rotwood.
The actual building itself is incredibly non-descript. It's just a dull grey blocky building with no windows. The only real thing of note aside from the plants growing on it is that there's at least a dozen doors at the entrance that would lead in and out of the front of the building.
The footage cuts to the Aerial Drone flying around the internal of the Shopping Centre. The interior of the first floor was a wide, open space lined with fifty different aisles that once had plentiful stock but have long since been empty.
Plants have wrapped around every shelf and aisle you can see. Flowers, bushes plump with berries, and even spindly trees with off-blue wood can be seen scattered in between each aisle.
Most of the animals that you were told about are either not here or have scattered to hide upon seeing the Drone but you DO see an off-white deer running around an Aisle.
For the first twenty feet past the entrance and the cash registers by it, there's nothing to note. But the moment it passed 30 feet inside...
<span class="mu-r">You could catch a glimpse of two people standing by one of the aisles. A VERY bulky man in a silver uniform and an oddly familiar woman with orange-pink hair and pink eyes.</span> The only difference between you and the woman you saw is her Antlers are oddly glossy looking. As if she's wearing fake ones to mimic you better.
