Chief Engineer’s log, 16:21, 19 May 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   Engineer here again, logging for… someone’s benefit. I don’t know any more. Seems to me that all this crap has little to do with the experiment. Everyone’s jumping through hoops that are completely unrelated to the Step itself. [...]

Ship’s log, 19:02, 12 May 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   It has been a week full of secrets and ulterior motives. I feel like I’m seeing shadows everywhere; I’m nervous whenever someone puts a hand into a hatch, as if they might be placing something in there or taking [...]

Ship’s log, 18:54, 5 May 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   When Elliott told me his theory about what the saboteur might try next, I almost shut down all accesses to my systems. I can run everything on my own if I need to. It’d be hard work and the [...]

Chief Engineer’s log, 22:14, 3 May 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   Chief Engineer’s log, yada yada. The ship is running fine. No repairs to do, standard maintenance is nothing the drones can’t handle. Wong’s finished fixing the filament, and he wouldn’t let me help even if he’d just lost [...]

Ship’s log, 19:39, 30 April 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   I had to give them the list. I had to put the facts out there for those in charge to see – namely, the captain, Dr Cirilli, and Elliott. Not that my Elliott is in charge in any way [...]

Ship’s log, 22:53, 28 April 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   Investigations into the sabotage are progressing in a disturbing fashion. I had to ask Elliott and then the captain for access to all of the archives from the first Starwalker. They were reluctant to open everything up to me [...]

Ship’s log, 21:41, 26 April 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   So we’re still swinging around Grisette. It looks like we’re going to be here for a little while – Wong is fixing the filament that was broken when I opened that last portal, and Lang Lang is still working [...]

Chief Engineer’s log, 21:19, 23 April 2213 Location: Grisette system Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol   Chief Engineer’s report, following the ‘let’s stick something in a portal and see what happens’ experiment. You’d think they would have figured all this stuff out already, but no, apparently not. Maybe next week, we’ll do the ‘let’s [...]

Ship’s log, 17:54, 21 April 2213 Location: Grisette system (unverified) Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol (unverified)   Elliott just contacted the captain to tell him that the sensor array is ready. After three weeks spinning around this star, we finally get to do something different. It’s time to find out when and where we [...]

Ship’s log, 19:09, 19 April 2213 Location: Grisette system (unverified) Status: Wide orbit around Grisette sol (unverified)   Someone on board this ship killed me. In a very real way, that person made me into the half-coded creature I am now. He or she sabotaged the pilot’s chair and murdered Danika Devon, and Danika became [...]
