Well, last time I was here, it was a general-purpose facility outside guild control. Supposed to be the big counter to Blackrock, the guild facility. Less in the way of restrictions on research, less of a publish-or-perish climate, and less Zezezulix with her claws in everything. Of course, that didn't work out so great. Made a lot of enemies that way, so they needed better combat spells and equipment to repulse them, which led to more damaging accidents because there was no oversight or restrictions. The lack of a publish-or-perish thing was a good idea though... But the point is, who knows what they were doing? It's general-purpose! Who knows if this is even RELATED to what they're doing! Could be a guild thing. Could be a government crackdown. Could be a joint operation. Could be this place was torn from the very ground and hurled into a different plane of existence!
Kellensea seems weirdly excited at the prospect of "torn from the very ground and hurled into a different plane of existence".
Anyway, it's possible. Or maybe they evacuated because of something else and this is part of their defense system. Completely aside from that, they've left their stuff unattended, and this is the part where we take the free stuff they've left unattended and use it to further our own goals!
She runs off towards the mansion at full tilt, crossing the river/moat thing, then suddenly diverts rightwards and runs towards the ruined gun platform instead, clambering in through the hole in the wall. It's not entirely clear why she did that.
