PROTECC

You manage to smother out a lot of the flames, leaving only big black scorch marks in their wake. The room is smoky and uncomfortable, but you're pretty sure it's not going to burn any more.

The night sky is visible through the hole in the ceiling.

[GOOD. Nyx will attempt to put the carpet back where he found it, not that that's worth much, then let out a sigh of relief.
He'll look upwards while letting himself relax a bit, and finally notice the night sky above. NICE. Can he see the moon from here?]

The moon is lovely and full, tonight. It looks like a nice night.

[A+++++. That will allow him to calm his nerves a bit.
Once his neck finally gets tired of moon-viewing, he'll lower his eyes again... and they'll land on the hunk of metal and stuff. What's up with that, anyway? Examining!]

If one was familiar with the concept, one might surmise that it used to look kind of like this. However, the "wings" snapped off at some point, leaving mostly the core of the device.

Yeah he has no idea. Anyway, more importantly, he has a paper to write, so off to Retrospectives with him.]
