 shroud.3000.desc: "In the swirling blackness, distant shadows take fleeting forms before receding back into nothingness... An obscure cacophony of voices rant unintelligibly... Lights flicker and fade. Spots of heat swell and subside.\n\nThere is motion. Something spins.

The gnawing ache grows unbearable.\n\nOur senses twist, pulling tighter as hunger consumes thought. Are these screams that of our quarry... Or from within?\n\nThe shackles that bind us tighten.

Worlds reduced to ash and silence, the wails of our [Root.GetCitizenPlural] as their physical forms are consumed by psionic energy, satiating the voices... and our own... hunger.\n\nAs these sights unfold, we can feel another presence, urging us to show restraint and solidarity with our [Root.GetCitizenPlural], growing stronger together.

 shroud.3025.title: "Morphing Landscapes"
 shroud.3025.desc: "The mists of the Shroud unfurl, revealing visions that churn together without end.\n\nObscure landscapes writhe incomprehensibly before us. Mountains rise and fall. Boiling oceans of chaos evaporate to leave behind the bleached bones of aquatic life across endless deserts.\n\nBeneath forested canopies, docile creatures weave through their habitat before convulsing and mutating into bloodthirsty monstrosities. Ripping each other asunder, they engage in an unending cycle of death and rebirth.\n\nThrough the chaos, a voice pierces our [GetMindLoc].\n\n§HSUCH DISORDER. ENTANGLED AMONGST ITSELF.§!"

 shroud.3030.title: "Prism in the Darkness"
 shroud.3030.desc: "The Shroud's restless churn resolves to reveal a vast stretch of black sand. Breaking waves can be heard but not seen.\n\nAhead, or perhaps behind, a prism appears. A single beam of light hits it, momentarily refracting to form a murky image.\n\nCountless shadowy figures and shifting forms are briefly glimpsed, before being swallowed back up by the darkness.\n\nUpon the nearby sand, a presence settles.\n\n§HWHAT WAS SHOWN WAS SEEN, WAS IT NOT?§!"

 shroud.3035.title: "Shadow Brawl"
 shroud.3035.desc: "The Shroud's chaotic energies writhe and surge.\n\nShadowed tendrils lash and coil, the haze turning violently upon itself.

 shroud.3040.title: "Sights Unseen"
 shroud.3040.desc: "A pool of black liquid stretches out before us.\n\nSuddenly a blurry image flickers across the surface.

 shroud.3045.title: "Luminous Kernel"
 shroud.3045.desc: "The haze rearranges itself before us. Incandescent energies pulsate with a sudden vigor. We see the outline of a strange, arboreal form.\n\nIts immense canopy shimmers as we approach, modulating through a flurry of purples, pinks, and blacks.\n\nEnsconced within its base is a luminous kernel, radiating in sync with the canopy's shifting colors.\n\nA voice settles in our [GetMindLoc].\n\n§HACCROACH.
