Emerging from the stairwell they entered a open large room spanning about 100x100ft wide square. The ceiling was 20ft above them with several rows of wooden and metal pews as well as an assortment of steam and other various pipes along the walls and ceiling all converging to a central 10ft raised point near the back end of the room. Upon it the pipes met feeding into and out of a large strange grey toned crystal almost 8ft tall by 3ft wide. In front of it on a plus metal lined throne sat the High Commandant. Nearby arrayed around another 10 or so followers armed with firearms the six scientists they had come to find from the observation team were also present and under his sway. “..Ah, so the insects finally find their way to my lair. Excellent, now to wipe you all out in one fell swoop, and from there to ascend to a higher plane!” he declared.

“High Commandant, stand down, the tyranny your people are experiencing ends now!” Lunan called out, his voice vibrating against the walls around them.

The Commandant laughed, “..No! I think I will not be standing down! Yo—” he began to speak but then a loud ‘band’ echoed through the hall as their allies leader of the locals fired at the Commandant midspeech. But then a ‘ping’ sounded showing the bullet though should have hit the Commandant head on failed to connect. The brief outline of what seemed some kind of energy field faded out then. “…as I was saying, no I will not! You should be the ones to stand down! The crystal protects me, it heightens all that I see and control. You can not defeat me..” he stated, another series of pulses from the crystal and hissing from several of the feeding pipes broke his speech. “..Now surrender or face my wrath!” he demanded.

Keitah gasped, “He is protected by some kind of force field.” She squinted her eyes, “If we can figure out what is generating that field we can take him out.”
After Keitah heard him say The crystal protected me, her eyes searched the room. “Crystals?” she thought out loud as her eyes wandered to the strange grey crystal by the throne. “There,” she said to the Commander. We need to find a way to destroy that crystal. It will destroy the field around him.”

“Be discreet Counsellor,” Lunan said carefully, “We don’t know how many tricks he has up his sleeve.”

The crystal it seems he referred too was the large one directly behind and above him tied into the weird contraptions of the steam and other electrical like primitive systems. It was obviously protecting him by some kind of low level energy field. Given it could protect against bullets. They could try using their phasers, its possible the shield couldnt protect him with their higher output. Or if it could they could find a frequency it was more venerable too.

Lunan eyed the field for a second and then drew his phaser, “Somebody keep the Commandant busy, I have an idea…”
