Xii Hollow
XII Hollow
XII Hollow is a geological formation in the southern hemisphere of the planet Xylos, characterized by vast, crystalline formations exhibiting unique resonance properties. It’s believed to be a remnant of a prior, larger, subterranean biosphere. Discoveries indicate potential energy reserves and unusually stable electromagnetic fields. Its formation is linked to deep-sea tectonic shifts and crystalline nucleation. Detailed analysis continues.
Geological Composition
XII Hollow consists primarily of quartz crystals, but with an exceptional metallic composition, yielding a distinct purple hue. These crystals exhibit a self-organizing structure, amplifying and reflecting subterranean geothermal energy. Layered strata reveal evidence of rapid crystallization processes. It's composed of dense, highly resistant minerals.
Atmospheric & Biological Effects
The ambient atmospheric pressure within XII Hollow is incredibly stable, consistently fluctuating near 1.2 atmospheres. Minimal biological activity is detected, though preliminary scans suggest a dormant, resonant fungal network exists beneath the crystalline matrix. Light refraction through the crystals creates faint, pulsating glows, observed periodically during Xylos’s twin-sun cycle. Small, highly specialized subterranean organisms thrive in mineral-rich crevices.
Exploration & Research
Current robotic probes are mapping the largest crystalline structures. Geo-acoustic sensors are attempting to decipher the resonance patterns. A long-term research initiative explores potential harnessing of the crystalline energy. The formation presents a unique portal for spacetime anomalies – hypothesized to be extremely localized. Further data collection is vital for understanding Xylos’s tectonic past.
History & Formation
Initial findings suggest XII Hollow formed approximately 60 million years ago during a period of significant tectonic activity. A catastrophic event, potentially triggered by seismic shock, solidified the crystals into the current form. The slow accretion of material fueled this process, transforming a seabed region into a crystalline expanse. Ancient Xylosian legends speak of a 'heart of stone’
