Date: Exact date unknown, mid-Old Rebuplic era.
Location: Ancient Echani Temple on an unknown Moon.
As the excavation party set foot into the ruined Echani structure, Mik Filos felt a rush of excitement.
"The statue Yusanis described in his journal, its right here!!"
Sure enough, in the middle of the room stood an imposing statue of a brave and proud Echani warrior standing atop the bodies of several fallen foes, his sword held aloft in a victorious pose. Typical Echani glorification.
Referring to the excerpts of the war journal he had stored within his Datalog, he scanned for further information.
"C'mon Mik, let's keep this short and sweet, no need for that lovey dovey bogus you spew when we find something... How do you always put it? 'New and exciting'."
It was Fark Mayburr, their Demoman. The Duros shook his head,and marched further on into the ruins.
Mik hurried and followed, making note of one passage in the journal:
"Deep in the eastern wing of the structure there is an ancient and powerful Echani relic owned by a once-great Echani General. To any who can claim them, they await one worthy of their unearthing."
Mik was not normally one to take risks, and venture out on his own, but he knew the rewards for securing such a relic were great, and the entrance had needed to be blasted open.
He was sure the relic was still here, it had to be.
He peered over his shoulder. The rest of his team was heading northbound into the maze.
He quietly broke off, and hand readied near his blaster pistol, he made his way deeper into the eastern wing.
