As Matricardo approaches the description, he feels a subtle change come over him. What exactly happened isn't clear, but he feels something growing inside of him sshortly afterwards.
Slowly coming into view, seemingly at the epicenter of the damage Matricardo saw before, is a massive plume of dust from which vague shapes occasionally reach out and swat at nearby buildings, reducing them to airborne rubble. A figure can be seen inside of it, large but not absurdly so, almost as though someone attempted to satirize the physique of comic book heroes.

The contraption, a four-rotor drone of some kind with a vague resemblance to a bird, approaches Ernest slowly, as though caught between trying to get as clear a view as possible and being safe.

The group leads Noah back to a small motorized raft that was parked along the shore, and they all board it, leaving Noah a seat where they can all see him. After a short moment, a larger vessel, about forty meters long and sitting about ten above the water, comes into view. It resembles a research vessel, given the large winch on the front.

Somewhat absentmindedly, the guard puts out his hand as though to motion to stop and almost starts some rehearsed speech before realizing exactly what he heard. He shrinks backwards slightly, whispering into his mask about not being sure what to do here.
@Dusty_Raider
The material breaks apart in large clots and sections that break up into smaller threads upon contact, somewhat like asbestos. It tastes... strange, from what little of it gets around that much. Clearly old and organic, but something seems off.
Thrasher finds that, while the buildings aren't in anywhere near the same state as those around the coastline, they certainly aren't fine. Many are clearly damaged by fires and weather exposure, and even explosions in more than a few cases. He finds many more corpses around here, though, that being more than none, most clearly quite old.

Giju quickly moves over the ocean, to a massive field of scattered icebergs and islands, to an even larger plane of snowy rocks, but eventually finds the signs of two distinct settlements, both in the same general direction and quite close.
And directly along the coast.

"I... I think so, yes. There's probably a more technical term for it, but that's correct."
The running sounds eventually show themselves to be a few dozen armed guards, all carrying high-powered rifles, plated body-suits, and even explosives, and although they seem markedly less affected by the calming light, they don't attack, merely gesturing threateningly.

Dieman's flaming attack instantly vaporizes a large portion of the black material, the water of the lake itself, and the entirety of the thing that briefly broke water. The black material appears to crumble, a liquid form of it leaking from the cracks caused by DIeman's attack and from the force of falling, but it quickly resoldifies over most of the lake. From his new position, Dieman can clearly see that the bottom of the lake is a sickened green color, rather than any stone or sand.

[genuinely sorry for not responding last post and I could've sworn I already posted most of this]
Most of the sheep sent out die quite quickly over the course of a few minutes. Those who weren't converted into SCP-3396 appear to go into spastic fits upon attempting to drink any ground water, clearly a symptom of the fungus, and die quickly. All but two of the remaining die from exposure, with even one of the living having hypothermia spread throughout all of its legs and the other appearing extremely disoriented.

Despite quite literally being black on near-white, X's presence seemingly isn't noticed as she approaches a small metallic building hidden in a valley.
@Andykhang
Most people don't give ILEK much mind, simply going about their lives, although a few seem to notice that gives off a feeling of being out of place.
@ZephyrosOmega
Corrin's search through houses specifically leads nowhere. Most electronic devises she finds curiously appear to have been manually disassembled before being destroyed and there's simply no power in those buildings.
However, a larger building, clearly a museum of some kind, appears to have limited power and hasn't been obviously destroyed like the others.
@WHYNAUT
The portal opens into a dark room, clearly some kind of cellar, although the woman can clearly sense a larger number of people above her.
