They are a
pair of archeologists who have been working together for some time, Heather and
Diana. They've arrived in an arctic region to explore a series of caverns,
hoping to find samples of prehistoric life. There is a dreamlike, ethereal quality to
everything.They dive deep into the caverns and come to an opening, and are surprised to find an
expansive, modern city inside.
While
standing aghast of the spectacle and discussing what their course of action
should be, they are confronted by a man in a finely tailored suit, who seems unperturbed
to be dressed that way in the extreme cold; he doesn't introduce himself, only says
a brief hello before walking away. Both women are completely put off by how nonchalant
the man is behaving, and determine that this place must be in a realm entirely
of it's own; how could it be possible that an entire city would be thriving
under these conditions, unknown to the world?
Heather's
immediate reaction is that they should report back to the crew and return to
better study the area, excited at the prospect of making such a discovery and how
it will boost her career. Diana doesn't see the need to announce it the world
so soon; being older, she's had a successful career already and doesn't want to
upset the balance of what seems to be a peaceful existence, let alone get involved
in something so bizarre. Heather doesn't want to give up the opportunity, and
compromises that they should explore the city and then decide what to do with the
information, and so the pair decide to push on...
