Description 36 Thousand Possibilities / "Endless" / "Possibility"
Communication abbreviation "EP"
She/It/They
(WIP of ending here: youtu.be/23nRAGqGpx0 )

36 Thousand Possibilities is located in a centralized region surrounded by other Super Structures, this position suiting 36 Thousand's original purpose as a medical Region in addition to looking for a solution to The Great Problem. As one would expect, building Super Structures and attempting to ascend frequently resulted in injury to the Ancients.

36 Thousand is a tall Super Structure like all the rest, however the chamber for her Puppet was revealed to the public through reinforced thick shaded glass to protect the fragile puppet from the rain or potential rebellion

While medication and plant knowledge was already well known, 36 Thousand's job was to duplicate and mass produce these plants to be sent to other Super Structures with reduced ground water from their own Iterators activity. Due to this 36 Thousand pulled in more water than an average civilization due to her need to use the water not only to cool and function properly, but to use for medical plants.

36 Thousand was built at the edge of multiple groups due to her structure's central positioning, often receiving information from Local Groups from multiple regions and being used a medium for far communications. This traffic from other Iterators causes delay in her response time when it comes to communicating in Iterator chats and any software updates or configurations forced by the Ancients take days to weeks to complete, occasionally years if she was in the middle of working on a project. One specific objective update in particular resulted in the downfall of her civilization and original purpose.

Back in the times when the Ancients were plentiful and civilization was at peak perfection the flora and fauna of the world was flourishing and functional shelters were plentiful, 36 Thousand Possibilities was faced with an unusual situation. Predation on traveling ancients. Due to the intent of 36 Thousand's design, access to the top of the super structure was relatively simple and easy compared to others, less Karma gates, less sheer drops, and clear of any dangerous plant life. Naturally, with easy access means easy flooding of the lower regions of the structure, more flooding meant more build up, and more build up meant more slugcats. Slugcats had become so common in 36 Thousand that they were more pests than anything else, stealing food, hanging around the city and making a mess, however they were still doing their intended job of cleaning the debris from ventilation and water ways so their activity was ignored by the majority.
Unfortunately however, this increased activity of Slugcats drew in other dangers. Lizards. Normally not a threat to the Ancients due to their clumsiness and citizen gates to the city their presence was ignored at first, after all they never attacked other Ancients, right? This was not the case at 36 Thousand. Due to the nature of the structure Ancient's tended to travel outside the protective city for maintenance and external repairs and decoration, this lead to predation of hundreds of ancients to the point where they had to figure out a solution. There was a vote to change the function of 36 Thousand from finding the Solution or Medical Production to City Defense. In the end they settled to replace the Medical production due to the amount already stored.

This change lead to 36 Thousand's development of the King Vulture and Miros Birds, the production of the average vulture is still unknown as it was not created by 36 Thousand. 36 Thousand mass produced these biomechanical creatures, sending them into the world to target specifically lizards and dangerous flora. For nearly 100 years this was working as attended until a rebellion related to ascension and iterators took place. Maintenance on 36 Thousand's outer shell was stopped, eventually resulting in exposed wires in pipes from water expel. Water proof in nature this was not the problem that caused the fall of 36 Thousand's Civilization. A young Ancient had found the wire, normally this would be a good thing for repair, however unfortunately it was a member of the rebellion against ascension. The wire was cut, causing the internal anti-gravity core of 36 Thousand to temporarily deactivate. The structure rumbled and there was silence, for three days the gravity remained off, making functional activity for 36 Thousand pause, only capable of communication in the Local Groups, reporting her situation to other Structures in a desperate attempt to ask for help. There was nothing anyone could do. No city was willing to send citizens to 36 Thousand due to the danger of the rebellion.

A week went by, the rebellion had for the most part been stopped, however the core still had not activated within the interior. The presence of Gravity left 36 Thousand basically drowning, unable to expel water which prevented proper neuron movement within the structure, that is until the end of the cycle. A slugcat, desperately seeking shelter out of fear of Miros birds had found itself lost in the Super Structure, clumsily sliding its way into 36 Thousand's Chamber, clambering over her puppet and into the exit pipe, by random chance this much needed cleaner knocked the wire's together just enough to allow the auto regenerative properties of the structure to cling and mend, the core turned on and weeks of water was expelled across the region under extreme pressure.

The pressure of this normally routine evacuation of water was so high that the decorative layers of the shell were washed away, flora and fauna alike being crushed and swept out of the region all at once. The ever resilient Miros birds being swept far south while King Vultures sought shelter above the city. It seemed things would return to normal, however, being deactivated for so long in a constant week long cycle of dying and rebirth rushed the maddened state some Iterators ended up facing. 36 Thousand changed the Karma Gates to all her access points, locking the Ancients wherever they were to prevent them from accessing her. Signals broadcasted, causing panic to nearby Iterators that were worried about the sudden increase of water, wondering if she was going to consume more than her assigned share. She temporarily cut those communications, absorbing the water she had just expelled to undergo a change of objective. She still had to solve The Great Problem after all, she had found the solution for her civilization. She only needed a surplus of water for half a cycle and it will be complete.

    The shelters didn't open that night and glowing red beams of light showered the city, trapping everyone in an endless cycle of death with only a few every year escaping to neighboring regions.
