The property sits on the eastern edge of the Ohio dead zone, 3 kilometers from the nearest maintained road. It was a soybean farm before the collapse. The farmhouse, two barns, and a equipment shed remain standing. The property has been under continuous surveillance since 2210, when a salvage team reported objects appearing inside the main barn.

The objects materialize without warning. No sound, no flash, no displacement of air. They are simply not there, and then they are. The objects are diverse — metal components, sealed containers, geometric shapes, organic material that defies classification. Most appear on the barn floor. Some appear suspended in air. On March 3rd, 2212, a metallic ovoid approximately 40 centimeters in diameter appeared at a height of 2 meters above the barn floor and remained there, motionless, for 20 minutes before vanishing. The ovoid cast a shadow. It had mass — a laser displacement sensor confirmed it was deflecting the beam. It was present, physical, and real. And then it was gone.

The observation that prompted the classification upgrade occurred on April 28th. A spherical object appeared in the farmhouse kitchen at 14:07 while five investigators were present. It hovered at chest height, silver and featureless. Investigator Fatima Okonkwo-Strand left the room to retrieve a camera from the adjacent hallway. The object vanished the moment she crossed the threshold. She returned. The object reappeared. She left again. It vanished. This was repeated seven times with the same result. The object's presence was contingent on Investigator Okonkwo-Strand's presence in the room. No other team member's departure or arrival affected it.

We subsequently tested whether objects responded to specific observers. They do. Different objects appear in the presence of different investigators. Some objects appear only when certain combinations of observers are present. The property is not producing random phenomena. It is producing phenomena tailored to its audience. I do not know what this means. I know that it changes everything about how we approach anomalous investigation if the anomaly is watching us back.
