I have finally got around to visiting the inside of the new Library of Birmingham. Around 18 days after it first opened!
Got in just before 4pm, and left before 5pm.
With closing time in the library nearing 5pm, I took the opportunity to look inside the ground floor of the REP before leaving.

Depending on their ability, kids age 9 to 12 have a choice to compete in the full triathlon, or the Kids Tri – which consists of a 1/4 Mile Run, 1 Mile Bike and 50 yard swim. Some fun obstacles are included along the run.

Mission Report: Veiled Nexus
Date: 07-06-2324
Location: Valtoria Colony - Valtoria Surface
Crew Present:
• Fazzy Constantine (Alias: Aeson Varr)
• Tinman
• Vahenir (Alias: Rontig)
• Daisy MacKenzie (Alias: Minnie Maxwell)
• Scrap (Alias: Murder Mason)
• Zeth Ryder (Alias: Solomon Gunn)
• Varik (Alias: Isaac)
• Chastian Necrosa (Alias: Splicer)

Special Appearance:
Idris (Antiques Seller)
Mission Overview:
The time was rapidly approaching to uncover the true nature of the artifact concealed by Governor Hom Tarris. The BluShock crew gathered in their safehouse to review the events of the past week. Undercover operations had been conducted within the Cartel, with certain crew members posing as criminals to infiltrate the Cartel's warehouse. This deception was essential for gaining the trust required to access the secured server room.
Undercover Operations and Warehouse Infiltration:
Zeth Ryder and Varik, under the aliases Solomon Gunn and Isaac respectively, joined the Cartel later than others but had convincing backstories that facilitated their integration. Following a thorough briefing in the safehouse, the crew proceeded towards the warehouse, encountering Idris, an enigmatic antiques seller, along the way. After a brief exchange, the crew continued to the warehouse, where the new recruits were introduced to Cranky Carl and the other operatives.
Carl, satisfied with their performance, granted Fazzy, Vahenir, and Daisy access to the upper floor, as they had completed the most assignments for the Cartel. Upon verifying their identities, the trio proceeded to the server room. Inside, they discovered a note containing an encrypted password, left carelessly by a Cartel member. With this information, Fazzy and Vahenir accessed the encrypted files.
Discoveries within the Server Room:
The files revealed extensive information about Ronald Maccie, a former Cartel member, and his schemes. The data included details on the Starfire Cartel's operations, financial records, and their obsession with the artifact. Notably, it was uncovered that Ronald, Carl, and Hom Tarris had been secretly collaborating to unlock the artifact, with limited success. The arrival of the BluShock crew had disrupted their plans, leading to the Cartel's attempts to undermine the crew.
The files also disclosed that Hom, Ronald, and Carl were members of the Radiant Order, a cult previously encountered by BluShock on the jungle world of Sirun. This revelation was startling, linking the Cartel's activities to the cult's worship of ancient ships.
Descent to the Surface and Initial Exploration:
With the critical data downloaded, the crew received a surface pass from the Governor and prepared to descend. Vahenir scouted a landing site for Daisy's Albatross dropship, ensuring a safe descent despite the unstable terrain. Upon landing, the crew disembarked to find stunning landscapes featuring a vast lake, ice-capped mountains, and a distant spaceship wreck that intrigued Daisy. A pirate ship docked by the lake indicated the presence of SteamPirates.
Confrontation with Pirates:
Approaching the docked ship, the crew overheard voices from a locked room. A voice on the speaker threatened the crew, leading to an ambush by waves of pirates emerging from the water. The BluShock crew's combat prowess quickly turned the tide, eliminating the pirate threat. Vahenir confirmed there were no remaining pirates underwater before Daisy breached the locked door, revealing MacDonald Maccie, Ronald's twin brother, and his associates Jom and Terry.
Under interrogation, MacDonald provided crucial information about internal conflicts within the Cartel, Ronald's obsession with the artifact, and the circumstances leading to their current predicament. MacDonald expressed his disinterest in the artifact, focusing instead on piracy and smuggling, and revealed Ronald's betrayal and escape towards the artifact.
Confrontation at the Artifact:
Navigating through the woods, the crew reached the artifact, guarded by hostile personnel. A tense exchange ensued, with the guards becoming aggressive and initiating combat. The crew swiftly neutralized the threat and began examining the artifact. At this critical juncture, Hom Tarris, Cranky Carl, and Ronald appeared, applauding the crew's efforts.
Hom Tarris issued an ultimatum, threatening to destroy the region unless the crew unlocked the artifact. Fazzy agreed to buy time, while Zeth covertly hacked into Hom's detonator, successfully disabling it. The crew continued their efforts to unlock the artifact, with Chastian and Vahenir working on deciphering its mechanisms.
The Artifact Unveiled:
The artifact's protective barrier shattered, revealing a golden galactic egg. Hom Tarris was captivated by the sight, pushing others aside to get a closer look. The crew drew their weapons, ready to end the standoff, when Saeed Massani descended from the sky, revealing himself as an undercover space cop investigating Hom and Carl. Saeed's intervention exposed the full extent of their crimes, leading to Ronald's attempted escape and subsequent elimination by Scrap.
Mission Debrief and Conclusion:
Back at the warehouse, Saeed took control, planning to reform the Cartel. Daisy advised disbanding the Cartel, a suggestion Saeed considered. The crew retired to the bar, where Fazzy compiled a comprehensive report for Chelly Kambers, detailing the mission's events and outcomes.
Mission Veiled Nexus was a resounding success. The BluShock crew dismantled a web of corruption, secured the golden galactic egg, and ensured the colony's safety. With newfound knowledge and experience, the crew stands ready for future challenges, prepared to face whatever lies ahead in their ongoing adventures.
