Welcome to Derinkuyu, an underground city that once housed up to 20,000 people. In the Cappadocia region, famous for its cave dwellings and underground villages, Derinkuyu stands out for sheer size and complexity. Locals began digging in the 500s BCE. The city consists of over 600 doors, each of which can be closed from the inside. Each floor could be closed off as well. And just to make attacking completely impossible, the entire city was deliberately built without any logic. Its maze-like layout makes navigating the city nightmarish for unfamiliar invaders.

Concept: You walk outside one night and notice that there are two full moons. A few hours go by and they don’t seem to move.

You stare up at them.

They blink.

ASMR: It is the year 12,000. You have strayed far from your family’s encampment while foraging for nutrients, and you stumble upon a peculiar structure in the wilderness. It is overgrown with strange, stunted plants, and as you approach, a hologram is activated. The ghostly image of an ancient votary of the atomic priesthood appears before you and delivers a pre-recorded message in a language that is at once alien to you, and strangely familiar… you have stumbled across one of the Great Old Ones nuclear waste disposal sites, from before the world moved on…

[Script is the summary of the proposed long-time nuclear waste warning messages from the Sandia report, aimed at protecting humanity from the threat of nuclear waste for at least 10,000 years, even after civilization collapse]
