00:00Oh, hi!
00:17You probably don't recognize me from this angle.
00:20I'm the Lumen Administrative Building, Branch 501, and you're sitting in me right now.
00:27The name's a mouthful, or as I say, a doorful, so you can just call me Lumen.
00:34I've gone through a lot of changes since my siring here in 1870, but one thing I've always
00:41had is a love for my workers, both unsevered and severed.
00:47Not to brag, but my basement floor is one of the premier severed workspaces in the 206
00:53countries from which Lumen operates.
00:56Hey!
00:57No running in my halls!
01:00That tickles!
01:06But what makes a building truly happy?
01:10This question came to light when four NDR workers, dissatisfied with their severed lives,
01:16conspired to mount what Lumen historians will forever call the Makrodat Uprising.
01:24Under my literal nose unfolded a human drama of danger and intrigue.
01:31Righteous anger.
01:32Let's burn this place to the ground.
01:41Inspiration.
01:42Why are we down here, still working in the dark?
01:50And love.
01:56What the sh...
02:00The Makrodat Uprising yielded bounteous reforms.
02:05These include tasty new snacks, like fruit leather, cut beans, Christmas mints, and salsa.
02:20Not sold yet?
02:21The incentives were also reformed, and now range from hall passes, to pineapple bobbing,
02:34to our brand new playful mirror room.
02:41You know, it's funny.
02:43I've sat by this reflective pool my whole life, yet it took the quiet courage of four
02:49NDR heroes to show me who I really am.
02:53They made quite a splish!
02:57They sure did, Water Tower.
03:00And I thank Kyr for them.
03:04I thank Kyr for the Makrodat Uprising.
03:19I thank Kyr for the Makrodat Uprising.
