The last known report we discovered on the table -Redacted- was extremely damaged and all that could be salvaged was the coordinates -Redacted- which lead the team to -Redacted-. At this location two items were found, one being a small metal cube, its surface is made of a -Redacted- and has -Redacted- covering most of its surface. Along with this a note was found, it was written on an unknown kind of paper. As a result the writing has not aged or weathered over the many years of being -Redacted-. The letter was transcribed below and the original, along with the artifact have been relocated to -Redacted- as ordered by -Redacted-.
Note, the cube has begun to vibrate at -Redacted- , its output is equal to -Redacted-, this has caused many to speculate.
Note, all information beyond this will now be classified due to an internal leak. We are running out of time.
—-----------------------------------------
We are the ones at fault for all of this, we are the ones at fault for everything. I have located the cube, it still hums with hate. Why did we open this door? It does not matter either way, they are outside trying to get in, time is running out.
If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.
I have done terrible things to get here, I killed so many to achieve my goals, but for what? Now it's just me, them, and the millions of rotting corpses.
This will be my final testimony, here I will spill my sins and pray the Seeker can forgive me, but I doubt it.
Several years ago we found a door, nothing remarkable about it, just a damn door in the middle of no fucking where. Yet the government foamed at the mouth for it, they locked the area down and began their research. Months later they figured out how to open it and soon prisoners were forced inside, no one ever came back. Blood and meat did, it was always when no one was around. At night, nothing, first thing in the morning, several bloody blocks of meat staked a few feet from the door with bloody footprints walking away from said door and back to it. Something was on the other side and yet we still kept sending people over there!
It doesn't matter, I can hear them inside now, it won't be long before they find me. This is all I know or care to share.
If you find this, then I have failed and the artifact was a lie, do not trust its words! If it does work then this is all for nothing. Huh, oh well. We opened a door, and welcomed them into our home. I know not what they are but they look like us, they sound like us, they smell like us, but they are not us. They eat the flesh of us, drink our blood, and do horrible things to what I can only describe as a soul. They are hungry, and most of this world is now nothing but rotting flesh and burned cities.
I found this cube, it claims to be able to fix everything. I pray this will end it all, they are now breaking down the door to my room. I am activating the cube as I write this, I pray this works. I PRAY THE SEEKER FORGIVES US!

Note, there was more written below the last sentence, but what we assume is blood has ruined the last part. After finding and reading the letter the cube started its humming. It has been four months since then, and it still hums.
Note, They have found another site, we will need to move quickly. They describe the new site as a door.
