- The party discovers they are the second expedition group; the first group did not bring dinosaurs.
- The party finds a piece of bone associated with the BlackBone phenomenon:
- The bone is very heavy, showing signs of being pounded down on the clavicle.
- The specimen appears partially or intentionally bipedal.
- Estimated about 12 feet tall, too large to be human.
- May be an engineered primate that could fall prey to predators.
- Signs that it may have been consumed by a predator.

- Further study reveals:
- The bone comes from a non-dino flier.
- The BlackBone substance spreads through blood into the entire bone.
- It rebuilds the bone with a strange super-hard material.
- The substance is not natural; it is artificial and may be alien technology.
- The substance appears spreadable: creatures that consume infected creatures become infected.
- Mosquito-type insects may spread the substance as well.
