The Floating Cube
The Floating Cube is an unidentified hovering craft that descended over Frangfurd in 2644, disrupted machinery across the country for the few hours it hung there, and left. It inspired a prototype built at Basis Oiropa, which in turn inspired the Granite Guardian.
History
2644: The cube came down north-east of The Obelisk and held position. It was cubic, and nothing else about it was established: no origin, no markings, no response to observation.
Machinery failed nationwide while it was present. The disruption lasted as long as the cube did, a few hours, and ended when it left.
The radiation at The Obelisk fell away over the same hours. It returned once the cube had gone.
The cube has not been seen since, and nothing was recovered.

Notes
The radiation is the only measured connection between the cube and The Obelisk, and it is what local belief is built on: that whatever the cube was, it came from wherever the Curse of Ravana came from. Nothing confirms it.
