The Elder One

As they start tinkering with the machine, they are suddenly beset by a shared auditory hallucination - a screaming command by something to be unearthed, unshackled. Visions of a creature ripping apart the … system plays repeatedly in their heads as the creature's demands grow shriller. Several scientists fall unconscious, unable to deal with the unabating torrents of pain that rack their bodies.

The command below will trigger the "The Elder One" event in Stellaris:

When this event fires, you can choose between these 2 options:

• Rip the machine apart before it can cause any more harm!
  • Engineering: +None to None
• LET IT OUT!
  • An Eldritch Horror will be released in the … system.
  • Leads to event: Incoming Transmission

Stellaris events fire in chains — one event leads to the next. Here is how The Elder One (ancrel.11020) connects.
