Subject: Admiral Mori
Sir, Admiral Mori and I performed a little exploration mission today. Though we didn't find anything of interest, there is one thing I wanted to inform you about:
Admiral Mori seemed very exhausted and tired; generally inattentive. He collided with several asteroids while we flew through the fields in Magellan, responded with great delay and imprecision. I never saw him like that before. Maybe he is just weakened from our encounter with the Ven'Gyr. However, he might also be seriously sick. I recommend, that you have him checked out by our best physicians.
Admiral Mori is currently on America base for recreation.
Gruber out.
post scriptum: just was informed by one of the guards protecting admiral mori, that he mutters in his sleep, apparently about being shut in in an airlock by lt. frost. doesn't make much sense, does it? maybe some kind of repressed memory, i have no idea. just wanted to add this, maybe it is of importance for a psychologic evaluation of the admiral's health. oh, one more thing: in his sleep, he said something about a shield, not sure what that means, though. admiral mori had an intense contact with the ven'gyr's shield, maybe that's what the admiral is hallucinating/dreaming about?
Update:
Admiral Mori didn't listen to my advice at all. After less than 10 minutes of sleep, he left for the Goldenflame and resumed practicing. 1st Officer Smith told me about power surges, that are seemingly connected to the Admiral's activities. Right after that, one of those surges knocked out the Goldenflame's systems. She was adrift for a while, randomly firing. Luckily, the crew got the ship back under control, however the last power surge caused a chain reaction of explosions in the training area.
To shorten things up a bit, the Goldenflame will need a lot of repairs, especially on the outer hull.
Doctor Phelps, chief of medicine on America, checked Admiral Mori's physique, couldn't find anything wrong with him, though (apart from the changes made by SiN-Tech). He suggested to get Admiral Mori to a psychologist, mainly because he couldn't find anything wrong with his body. Why not just call his whole condition idiopathic and be done with it, if you're asking me. Phelps obviously has no clue.
Right now, the Admiral is recovering from the anesthetic. He'll attend his psychologist's appointment shortly after he wakes up.
