Go to the lands beyond the pillar
Moving past the pillar, you can see the discolored grasslands come closer as you move forward, and the sense of wrongness continues to build.  The grass itself seems to be turning a deep purple as you continue moving, and looking back, you can no longer see the pillar.  A familiar nausea seems to build in you.

Despite your unease, you continue moving forward, and see a large, crystalline structure on the horizon.  Creeping closer, the building looms into the sky, and several massive, foggy figures appear to be inside, though it is hard to tell what they are doing.  Oddly enough, the feelings of wrongness and nausea completely vanish, leaving you feeling almost...  Serene.

Rise into the air and survey the area.

Try to get close enough to see/hear the figures, but move stealthily!

You are struck by the urge to watch them from above, but the realization that these creatures may be hostile strikes you. Though you have no apparent form, it does not mean you cannot be seen.  Creeping closer to the structure, one of the figures appears to be gesturing with what could be called arms, though the creature itself only has a vaguely humanoid shape.  You can hear the faint sound of chanting from inside the structure.

Listen to the chanting, keep an eye on those creatures

The sound seems to be discordant and makes the feeling of unease return, though still very weakly.  You cannot discern any meaning in it, though the figures seem to be gesturing more violently now.

Try to find an entrance to the building away from the creatures.

The building itself seems to consist of a very thin crystal, though it oddly distorts everything you see through it.  You see no visible entrance,  but it looks very fragile, and likely could be broken with ease, if not quietly.  The chanting reaches a lower pitch, and a faint chill settles into place.

Hey, we haven't tried to get a body since the beginning, so let's do that now.

Watching the creatures warily, you attempt to form a body, resembling their own.  Almost instantly, a discolored copy of one of them pops into existence, then vanishes.  While you felt you could control it in a sense, it still felt like nothing more then an extension of yourself.  The chanting continues, the figures seemingly unaware, and the sky flickers briefly.

Back up a bit so you don't attract their attention, then fly up and examine the sky

Shifting backward until the structure seems a safe distance away, you draw yourself up into the air, seemingly effortlessly.  Gliding around, the sky itself seems to be slowly shifting between purple and red.  It flickers jarring green for a moment, before returning to normal.
