Before you stretches a sea of sand. You stand in the midst of a desert. Looming like a proud spire above you is the crumbling remains of a Radiotower. You mount the ladder and ascend to the operating booth. Decaying, but miraculously still active, sits the old Operator's switchboard. Tower diagnostics report that the Tower's internal archive—which logged all previous transmissions through the Tower—is still at least partially active.> Access Tower archives?
