In the central courtyard, the expedition quickly got organised to transit through the wide tunnel from the abandoned "palace" to the docking bay where the ship waited. With growing concern about the threatening noises surrounding them the grav sleds towing the platforms loaded with gear and samples started off down the ramp to the open portal. The ramp was about 40m long and 5m deep at the portal.
Scuttling and chittering noises filled the halls and rooms around them getting louder and louder. Suddenly, waves of black insect-like forms about 1m across with wicked knife-like mandibles and waving sharp pointed antennae burst out of all four courtyard entrances, heading straight for the ramp and the portal!
