Rolled 2d4+1 and got 7. Rolled for specific outcome and got a 6: Void Invasion.

A team of Piltovian engineers working on the Velocitronic Rail, frustrated with their lack of progress, disabled the secondary dampeners and overcharged the pyrikhosian engine. For a moment, it appeared to succeed. Their cheers were cut short when the train came around the closed test track laden with screeching Voidlings — the hextech locomotive had ripped apart the dimensional fabric and opened a portal to the Void!

Resolution pending.
