The rest of the main floor had been removed, leaving a vast space dropping down to the next level. On that floor, the removed Generic Surface had been used to sculpt a vast array of tombstones. No one was ever able to count them β it was said that a particularly cunning plothole-fed distortion had made it so that the number was actually indeterminate, but of course no one could tell. The stones were not the main feature, however. That was the vast slab, midnight black and rumoured to be a stolen Monolith, on which were inlaid countless letters of ithildin, gleaming in perpetual starlight. These were the names of the fallen, and none who entered could stand to read them all, for they stretched from floor to ceiling without a break." βThe Reorganisation, Chapter 20 The Tomb of the Unknown PPC Agent has existed since the Reorganisation in 1999 HST; it occupies the former site of DIS Central, and consists of a large, dark room containing a Monolith on which are written, in ithildin, the names of all the DIS's victims. The names are illuminated by perpetual starlight. Between 1999 and 2006 the floor was covered by sculpted tombstones; these were later removed.
