The Obelisk

The Obelisk is a massive cylindrical structure at the centre of the Frangfurder Sea in Frangfurd, which erupted from the ground in 2518. It periodically causes earthquakes and tsunamis and emits lethal radiation. All documented exploration missions have ended in the deaths of every participant, on site or within 24 hours.
