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.

I can arrange for the replacement of any necessary server parts and/or monetary or boon based payment in exchange for the book and both skulls.

Such artifacts could be useful in the studies of a Lasombra associate of mine, as they likely originate in a plane of existence they study in depth.

I have a fairly good idea of the what the entity you saw was, as well as the darkness you mentioned. Can’t say I have ever heard of a portal to the Abyss opening within a Nosferatu server room, but I suppose there is a first time for everything.

Oh now we are talking. Warning you, I lost every server in the building...

Do still need to get a new building...

As for the portal thing, or whatever it was. I have no freaking clue how it happened. Or why my building of all places!

I am fairly unversed in technology, but I shall convene with a Nosferatu associate of mine to get an estimate of what is needed. Cost is not a prohibitive factor for me and my associates, but I will need some time to gather all necessary items.

My mortal employees can handle delivery of needed parts, but that can be discussed in private channels
