For many people, elevators are a source of fear, and after this next story, that fear might just feel justified. A group of friends, on their way to a an exclusive Arcology landing restaurant, had their ride interrupted when the elevator they were in suddenly stopped working. What followed was a mix of panic, confusion and eventually, some surprising quick thinking.
The stuck group immediately tried calling the restaurant staff for help. But instead of getting quick assistance, they received an even scarier response on the comm: "We want you to stay with us."
Undeterred, the group of friends successfully pried open the elevator doors themselves. They held the doors steady and carefully climbed out one by one. While the entire scene looked straight out of a thriller sim, it ended with everyone safely outside the lift.
The unusual incident quickly went wide, with many online users finding the mix of fear and humour hard to ignore. Renraku stated that an unforseen issue with the SCIRE support system caused the issue and at no time were this group of friends in danger.
