Sample 10, the Capillary Stone, is a mineral core recovered beside a warm pipe in the upper cavern. Its analysis traces pressure through connected cavities, and a successful run identifies a disturbance on the west maintenance loop of the freight cleft.
Sample 11, the Echo Glass, is a cartridge recovered from a service-recorder cradle in the alcove that disturbance led to. Three glass fragments seated in their sockets send a pulse back along a reflected path. A full six-second return archives a service command.
Consequence
The archived command opens the L-14 work order: a landing lamp, a cabinet latch and a return lift. With L-14 restored, the Wasteland gains a future called The lit landing. See Service repairs.
