-//It opened up right over my head. It was just... a hole. There'​s no other way to describe it. On the other side, there were these bright blue lights, and then, a moment later, they came through. I've never seen anything move through the air like that. They went right over me, over to the Peak.//\\ ---Giovanni Morelli, Overseer of Ivory Peak+//It opened up right over my head.

-//We were running, all of us, when one of them swooped over our heads. It moved like a fish, swimming in the air. Fins and tendrils and great glowing lights at the back. It roared at us, and I swear when I looked up something looked back at me. Then it swung back towards the peak. We didn't stop running for two hours.//\\ ---Valentina Greco+//We were running, all of us, when one of them swooped over our heads. It moved like a fish, swimming in the air.

 As soon as the hole appeared, several objects passed through it into the Heights. Current estimates have confirmed at least fifteen distinct vessels - and vessels are what they appear to be, though they are obviously conveyances vastly removed from anything in Esharia. How exactly they fly is currently unknown. Interestingly,​ eyewitness accounts of the vessels conflict wildly. Some even claim that they are not vessels at all, but colossal flying creatures. As soon as the hole appeared, several objects passed through it into the Heights.

-Soon after their appearance, several of these vessels directed 'great beams of light' (according to eyewitnesses) at parts of the mountain range that includes Ivory Peak. These were accompanied by an excessively loud noise, and may be causing some sort of damage to the mountain. Further data is impossible to come by, however, since everyone ​in the area rapidly vacated. ​The exception to this, as far as anyone can tell, is the elderly Father Canis of the church of Skanaster, who rushed directly towards the vessels shouting something about the end of the world. ​We do not hold out much hope for Father Canis' ​return.  ​+Soon after their appearance, several of these vessels directed 'great beams of light' (according to eyewitnesses) at parts of the mountain range that includes Ivory Peak.
