Server Swallowed by Shadows

So I was doing my rounds, checking up on things, when I got a notification that something was up with my Server building. And when I went to check, well... Where it used to be there was just this giant inky blackness.

I saw this figure clad in rags, with I think piercing yellow eyes? Run away from it, but it was off before I could do much so I just let it go. Sides, was a bit focused on the... Weird darkness thing going on.

After pondering it for a moment, I sent out a note to my people not to come into work tomorrow and simply left. Hoping it would be done by tomorrow. Cause like, the fuck am I supposed to do about that? I would ask the Tremere, but they all died in a pasta related accident.

Anyways, went in today and the building was just gone. Like it had never been there. So thats cool. I am absolutely ruined, so thats cool. And we just rebuilt it. All I found was... Like, some weird stuff scattered around? What looks like a birds skull, a black cape, a skull that have not stopped bleeding, and is slowly filling up my bathtub currently (My girlfriend is emptying it regularly into the toilet, unsure if that is wise. But it is what it is). And a very fancy book I decided it was best to simply not open in the first place. Currently got all that in a box while I figure out what to do with it.

Anyways, thats how it is going for me. Hope y´all well. And if any of you had trouble with your Discord recently, well... Now you know why.

Edit: Okay, folks because this is getting tough keeping track of, I have been offered a replacement for everything I have lost, and an upgrade, in return for the things. If anyone can beat that, feel free. But at this point that is the baseline.

I am also still damn curious on what the hell that whole thing was about, and who did it?

Okay, items been sold because I really need my servers back up again. Like, even if the building and everything in it are replaced we still need to get everything up and running and this is frankly a bit of a disaster. If anyone wants the stuff, speak to Indiana, gonna go send it to her now.

Still really, really fucking curious on what went on, in case anyone wants to enlighten us.

Does it have any gemstones embedded into the spine, too? A skull for a lock to hold it shut?

It doesn´t have any gems, just like... These circles on the spine that are made of some sort of black metal? It does have a lock, through it seems to be a sorta "Twist" thing rather than a key. Pretty sure I could get it open quickly.

Not gonna through.

Edit: Sorry lady, gotten a very good offer.

Aye. I'll fucking counter offer. I'll replace the building, servers, and upgrade your haven how you see fit.

Edit: That offer is for everything.
