Destroyer of Worlds

0800 ST, 24JAN836, Planet Weimar Inspektorat HQ

RECORDING:


Ma'am please state your name and rank for the record.

This was the latest in a abhorrent string of interviews following the miraculous recovery of the long-lost "former" Direktor Viper of the Buro. The details surrounding such a high ranking intelligence officer's disappearance warranted one of the largest investigations in the Buro's history.

It was almost redundant at this point, sure, there was a need to piece together evidence. But asking the same few questions before each interview as if the the details weren't already recording just made for a rude and somewhat embarrassing rhetoric.

Viper eyed the second interviewer sitting further back, one of the Direktor's assistants. Dropping her name out in the open was a security risk both herself and the Buro, considering the worth of her role in Rheinland's weapons development program. The second interviewer glanced back and nodded - it was safe to say. The only attendants were likely the Inspektoroberrat and the Direktor himself, but she couldn't tell exactly who was outside.

Kathrina Lily Laurenz, Kommissaroberrat. Kat's expression was a neutral one, the anxiety of returning balanced out with the drive to continue where she'd left off before.

Thank you. Alright, flight details and star charts pulled from you last flight on 13APR834 line up more or less with what you've said. We can't find a point at which you requested reinforcements or alerted HQ to a hostile encounter. You were traveling alone, no debris found at the last known location. You can't remember exact details on where the fight took place?

Not exactly, no. I've told you all I can remember.

We've no reason to think otherwise, your biometrics don't tell us otherwise, everything lines up with records. No signs of infection and in surprisingly better health than when you left... Could we now dive into what happened when you woke up?

I woke up on Gran Canaria, I didn't quite realize where I was at the time. Some locals told me they recovered my escape pod from the Dartmoor nebula, but I only have their word to go off of. They took me out of stasis and sedated me until they felt it was safe to wake me up.

Can you recall what day exactly they decided to take you out of stasis?

August 24th, 835 is the day they sedated me in the hospital. I uh... Kat's face went blank trying to remember more details. The blank expression led to a lengthy moment of silence.

Ma'am, are you alright? The interviewers voice broke the silence, and Kat's concentration on trying to unscramble the beginning of events on Gran Canaria.

Excuse me, it's difficult to recount. Waking up after that long felt like my first memories as a child, I can't point to details past a certain point.

That's alright, let's take a moment, there's coffee out in the lounge if you'd like.

Thank you.
