SE07 : EP11 - Nadir Part II - Tangles and Knots

General Summary

Horizon is bustling with the prospect of dealing with the situation with the trial and the malfunctions in Zenith. As they hold council explaining the situation to Councilman Stratos  , Tarvin shows up in the room and spins ideas about what may be happening and presents options to them. While many of his comments are unwelcome, he brings to light possibilities that he hadn't considered. 
They have these solutions to consider

Capture the Producer and use him to replace the corrupt Elder Brain

Follow the thread of the monolith to Junkyard and see if the monolith could replace the Elder Brain

The magical entity of the General on Scapyard may also be a replacement option

Propose to Luluwama that she could replace the Elder Brain

Kill the Elder Brain and thus doom Zennith

Do nothing and seal off Zenith

They send feelers out to gather intel about the situation. Over the following week, the following happens.

The Stixhaven graduates and Garim Goldbrick are isolated in Marcus Manor 

 - Strixhaven scholars surmise that Zrnnieth is built out of the essence similar to that of an Astral Dreadnought harnessed into a useful and beneficial form, held together by unimaginable magics regulated by the networked brains

They send Helpr, similar to a probe into Kizzentac, proving that it can be accessed. InSight sends in a scout team to reconnoiter for two hours. The team finds the city walls overgrown, with only the central town still standing. The settlements may be abandoned but time ran out to investigate further. Also, there was no sign of Lulu.

Reaching out to Fennian confirms that Tarvin's theory of how the monolith's removal is causing ripples through Zenith seems sound.

A second meeting of Meridians convenes. Also invited are the Strixhaven graduates and Garim. Cornelious presents the information gathered and collates it into further details on their various options. They commit to finding Lulu and see if the wizard at the Kizentac tower, is out of the meeting Also a separate group will head out to Scrapyard to ask what it thinks of the situation. Kayla asks if the being in the Zennieth can be trusted; it is Elder Brian, after all.
As they work differently channels they send the Aspirants with Ryder to Kizentac
