The team had figured out they needed to use the key they found earlier, back in the forest, to enter the towering building. With the key in place, the massive doors opened, granting them access to the structure at the heart of the Soomite city.

They entered the towering space needle at the heart of the Soomite city. Inside, they found an information center like nothing they had ever seen—an advanced repository of knowledge with alien consoles, holographic interfaces, and massive 3D views of entire galaxies. The air was filled with faint, almost musical sounds—gibberish at first, but as Zera listened closely, she began to wonder if it was the Soomite language echoing through the halls.

As they explored the floors, Kara and her team marveled at the alien markings etched into the walls, the symbols glowing faintly under their touch. Zera’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she studied the intricate patterns, her mind racing. She paused, her fingers tracing a line of symbols before turning to the others, realization dawning on her face.

“This… this place isn’t just a relic,” Zera whispered, awe in her voice. “It’s a knowledge base—an advanced alien archive. It holds the answers to everything. If we can translate it, we can unlock technology far beyond our understanding.”

Kara stepped forward, staring at the vast array of information projected before them. "Everything?" she asked.

“Everything,” Zera confirmed. “There are records of the Portal Shacks, built every three kilometers throughout the city, guides to manipulating wormholes, even perpetual power sources. There’s blueprints for machines, roads, even plans for rebuilding worlds. This place has everything we need to not just survive—but thrive.”

Kara felt a wave of hope wash over her as she looked at the glowing displays, the alien architecture rising around them like a beacon of possibility. It wasn’t just about finding answers—it was about the future. For Jumbar, for its people, and for all the broken worlds left in the wake of war.

She glanced at the others, seeing the same spark of hope reflected in their eyes. "We’ll bring this knowledge back. We’ll rebuild what’s been lost. This is how we start over."

And with that, the future of Jumbar changed forever. The path ahead was clear, lit by the wisdom of an ancient race and the courage of those willing to carry it forward.

They had found the key to prosperity, to wealth, to travel beyond their wildest dreams—and to the rebuilding of worlds once devastated by war.

Kara looked at the others and smiled. "The Iron Horizon was never the end of the journey. It was just the beginning."
