Elsewhere, the Tau have already reached their destination: the huge Wraithbone tower extending upwards out of the jungle. Landing atop an open-to-air platform extending out from the tower high in the air, they took in their surroudings.

The tower was huge, easily several hundred metres into the air. Its creamy Wraithbone structure was old and pitted, long since abandoned and weathered by the elements, and its main structure was filled with a vast labyrith of corridors and rooms. Many of the walls were holed and scorched, as if the tower had been subject to some attack in an age gone by, but the most interesting thing of all about it was the large glimmering portal that lay at the end of the platform.

O'Ionus: "It seems with have found another of these strange gateways..."

Vre'Shuni: "O'Ionus, there is a crashed Imperial aircraft five kilometres away by the daywards fall. My sensors are reporting multiple high-energy signatures around it."

O'Ionus: "We will wait here and observe then. We cannot afford any confrontation now with the local species, and I shall need time to analyse this structure."

With that, the Tau command team spread out into the nearest rooms of the structure to rest, leaving behind a single DX-11 Exploratory Drone and a sensor jammer upon the platform to watch the incident around the downed plane.
