Background Story

First catalogued by the JustUnleash field unit during a routine sweep of long fluorescent corridors. The Bath Heron is currently designated Euclid and demonstrates behavior consistent with classification Euclid. Estimated threat index is 52/100 (MODERATE). The entity primarily follows recently-walked carpet tracks in reverse and has been encountered on 21 separate documented occasions.

Origin

Origin remains [EUCLID-LEVEL HYPOTHESIS]. Recovered field recordings suggest the entity may be a manifestation of liminal creature phenomena native to deeper sectors. Cross-reference with parallel sightings in adjacent levels.

Behavior

Primary observed behavior: follows recently-walked carpet tracks in reverse. Secondary cycle on a 32-minute interval.

Containment Procedures

Maintain perimeter of no less than 25 meters. Avoid use of high-frequency audio. Sector lockdown protocol JU-6A applies if three sightings occur within 24 hours.

Investigation Notes

Sensor logs indicate elevated electromagnetic readings during all confirmed encounters. Theoretical model places this entity within the Outer Loop stratum.

Survivor Testimony

"It didn't look at me. It looked at where I had just been. By the time I realised, the hallway was already different." — Survivor recording JU-044, redacted operator.
