The cache can only be accessed if the player approaches it with Al-An inside their head.

Description

The Arctic Spires Cache is located within a rocky enclosure surrounded by clusters of luminous Crystal growths. The cache boasts a large platform, with a ramp constructed on the right side. The left of the platform features a microscope, along with three crystals atop a large table. Above the table is a claw mechanism securing a crystal in place. Two specimen cases are located at either side of the platform, each containing a sample of the surrounding crystals. A data terminal is located at the back of the platform; as of now, the player will receive an incomplete databank upon interacting with the terminal. To the right of the data terminal, a pile of rubble obstructs the player from going any further into the cache. Burrowed beneath the rubble is an Architect vessel with the arm exposed; scanning it will unlock the skeletal structure blueprint for Al-An’s body.

The area was likely established as a mining installation, indicated by the columns, beams, and several mounted claw arms erected to form an apparatus for dislodging the nearby crystals for study.
