This imposing and ominous device is a piece of technology that does not belong to our universe. The fact this Shadowtech is used by Smugglers to communicate with Shadowmasters is rather obvious. Less obvious was the fact that the device is not sending or receiving any waves, but actually creates a temporary Tannhauser Gate through which not only information, but also those possessing the power of Shadowmasters, can travel. A disturbance of this device leads to its explosive destruction.
