History

This location didn’t exist until 453 LV, until a Freelancer stumbled upon it. The “engine” is a construct of Scars trying to mimic the Shapers, this time. The Hate Engine has a horrible smell coming out of it.

As of 468 LV, the Hate Engine stands strong causing more putrid smell around it, even though humans have tried to destroy it several times.
