[The network would be greeted with the good Doctor's mustachioed face again. He seems... rather pleased with himself as he stands in view, with his hands clasped behind his back.]

Fellow offworlders of Ellipsa, lend me your ears! My name is Dr. Eggman, the world's greatest scientific genius! You may have heard of me before, you may have not. However! I come to you today to announce the grand opening...

[He steps aside, revealing a large computer screen showing a large metal dome, zooming in to go inside and begin flying around it.]

OF THE EGG DOME!

[Inside it, there'd be a large battlefield, with all sorts of plates on the ground that occasionally flip around to show turrets, flamethrowers, and all manner of traps before flipping back. Doors all around the arena would open and close, showing robots of various sizes running in and wielding melee and ranged weaponry, but notably not firing them as no-one is there to fight at the moment.]

What you see here is the ultimate test! Have you ever obtained an ability you wish you had more time and inclination to learn? Do you enjoy the thought of being embroiled in combat to shore up your weaknesses and harden yourself in every way? Then come to The Egg Dome, and show us what you're made of!

[Screens pop up around the outer edge of the arena, showing silhouettes of what might appear to be people.]

All I ask is a mere small fee of Moon Coins, for repairs and gradual upgrades - and you will be allowed to fight as many of my robots as you please! You can even, for a slightly smaller extra fee, upgrade their capabilities and enable various traps and hazards on the field! You can even enable a live feed that anyone can watch at any time! Feel free to completely customize your experience here in the Egg Dome. After all, it is here to make YOU stronger!

[And let him get a better viewpoint into how all these seasonal powers work. But it's a reasonable trade.]

And, as an added bonus, it will only get BETTER as time goes on! As I learn more about those of you who utilize the Dome, I will be able to upgrade these robots ever more to challenge you to your very limits! And if, at any point, you feel that you have bitten off more than you can chew, the exit teleporter will always be there, and a simple surrender command will deactivate all robots in the arena!

To get there, and to submit your request and payment for your Dome experience, simply head to this location in Nightwake City. This building here, [and he shows it on a map of Nightwake for the net to see,] houses a small teleporter to the Dome's location. As the Dome is underground in one of the Segments, it would be much safer to travel this way! Feel free to bring your friends, your comrades, your rivals!

[He clears his throat.]

It should be obvious that harm and death may occur if someone decides to set up an arena battle that is far above their capabilities. The Eggman Empire is not liable or responsible for any harm that comes from doing this and refusing to surrender to deactivate the Dome. Anyone who allows themselves to come to harm this way will be banned from re-entry.

[He clears his throat again.]

Well, I believe this announcement is getting fairly long-winded. Should you have any questions about this, my line is open at any time! I look forward to seeing how you fare against my robots!

[The feed then cuts off for the moment. There is now a building emblazoned with Eggman's symbol in Nightwake City, with a digital order panel and a teleporter.]
