The Tower

Soon after arrival, we touched down on a stone pedestal that conforms perfectly to the dimensions of the Rift Sphere. In fact, the location is so obviously suited to our needs that the idea of it being a coincidence has been rejected out of hand. In all directions, a vast and radiant sky stretches before us. Initial scans indicate we are sitting atop a massive tower, the bottom of which is blocked from view by the swirling layers of cloud. At the edge of the pedestal is a solitary creature. It wears a tattered, dusty robe, and is apparently waiting to greet us.

The command below will trigger the "The Tower" event in Stellaris:

When this event fires, you can choose between these 3 options:

• Attempt to communicate with the creature.
  • Leads to event: Binary Communication
• Observe the creature and report back.
  • Leads to event: A Long Awaited Welcome
• Kill it.
  • Leads to event: Fish in a Barrel

Stellaris events fire in chains — one event leads to the next. Here is how The Tower (astral_rift.600) connects.
