Put it on display at pop-up museums, so that they can show the world that no one is out of Paradox’s reach."''</ref> Once a sufficient number of artifacts are gathered, the museum is open to the public for a short amount of time.<ref>[[Paradox/Quotes#Conversations|Paradox & Wraith Conversation 3]] - {{HeroIcon|Paradox}}: ''"We're securing a few more items of interest, but hopefully the gallery will be opened shortly."''</ref>
