Weeping Towers
So, the Corpus get here, right? Place is a firestorm. They turn the old Orokin terraforming back on and presto. Within a week we got plants and animals ain't nobody ever seen. I'm tellin' ya, either the tech is hiding something, or the planet is.
—A Solaris worker
The Weeping Towers are large, Orokin Orb Vallis .
Lore & History [ ] General [ ] Weeping Towers employ the use of coolant to terraform Venus , lowering the temperature of the planet in order to make it more hospitable. This process leads to the production of various by-products. This coolant is highly toxic; when off-gassing, its caustic enough to severely burn the eyes and lungs of anyone nearby.
Restoration of Venus [ ] After the Collapse of the Orokin Empire, the Weeping Towers fell into ruin, causing Venus to regress into its pre-terraformed state.
Trivia [ ] The by-products created by the Weeping Towers posses various practical uses. Gallery [ ] See Also [ ] Thermal Sludge Venerol Amarast
