>Look behind you.
There's somebody else here.
A someone who isn't you.

They flicker and change, their form not entirely solid.

You attempt to make words.
You have no mouth.

Everything goes white.

???: "Aaand... connection lost. Damn. I thought I was good for another few seconds, but they went back through the doorway. When's the next window in the Location's security? I need a nap."
A pause.
???: "Right. Well, get me an update in a couple of hours. Tip me out of bed if something important happens while I'm out. We're definitely making progress."
->

->
In fact, you haven't the barest inkling as to what's going on.
