A-002 The Work

CACG Item File
Item A-002, also known as "The Work," is a massive clockwork device of unknown origin. Not unlike The Vault, Geo was built around A-002 and has been kept there since, with Geo-7 residing in the exact same spot. A-002 was initially found during an expedition with the Director at the helm into a cavern with reported anomalous activity. Upon finding A-002 after nine hours, the search was called complete. Geo, the first site of the CACG, was built around A-002 shortly after.

The exact nature of A-002 remains unknown, with it only barely getting anomalous classification even with the Director's blessing. Only anomalous beings seem to recognize A-002 for what it is, with the most common report being that it "felt strangely familiar to them." According to a team tasked with discerning the purpose of A-002, it was found that it was "incomplete," according to engineers on the team. This was challenged, but with the approval of the Roundtable Council, an initiative to "finish" A-002 was sanctioned. There are still regular attempts at completing the Work's mechanisms even today.

A-002 research and experimentation requires the express approval of the Roundtable Council, as A-002's effects are primarily unknown, and could cause unintended consequences if not handled with the utmost care. According to the Director himself, A-002 could quite possibly be "something more than just another anomalous device," but as of writing, he has not elaborated on this. Since containment however, cases of anomalous activity in the region has seen a sharp decline.
