Codename: EA-038

Object Class: Secure

Name: Portraits and Portals

Containment: EA-038 is a secure-class hallway designed to resemble a mansion from the 1800s era. The hallway is to be maintained in pristine condition, with regular inspections for any structural damages or anomalies. Access to EA-038 is restricted to Level 4 personnel and above, with surveillance cameras installed to monitor activity within the area. Any unauthorized entry or unusual occurrences should be reported immediately to the appropriate authorities for investigation.

Profile: EA-038 comprises a corridor adorned with three distinct paintings on each side, depicting serene and tranquil landscapes: a sunny beach, a cherry blossom forest, and a hillside at sunset. Further along, additional paintings portray scenes of a snowy area with the northern lights, a waterfall, and a flowing river near a field. Despite their static appearance, each painting serves as a portal to its respective location when entered.

Individuals entering these paintings find themselves transported to seemingly alternate dimensions corresponding to the depicted scenes. Despite traversing vast distances within these realms, the scenery remains unchanged, suggesting a fixed and isolated existence within each painting. Remarkably, exiting these dimensions is facilitated by re-entering the respective painting, despite its inexplicable suspension in mid-air rather than being affixed to a wall.

Efforts to understand the nature of these alternate dimensions and their relationship to the paintings are ongoing. Research teams are tasked with exploring the properties of EA-038 and investigating any potential connections to other anomalous phenomena. Continued monitoring and analysis are essential to ensure the containment and security of this enigmatic hallway.
