Story of Sol - Operation Trojan - Part 4
Map of the Iron Province
TRANSCRIPT
For the next while, our group helped with the excavation. It was grueling with long exhausting hours, but it was relatively uneventful. Occasional rumors and murmurs about someone maybe detecting something.
But what made the work torturous beyond everything, was that we all remained in our group, meaning 'Emilie' was at my side the entire time. And since we were openly friendly beforehand, I had to play along to keep my cover. It was torturous, and I wasn't sure if she was just toying with me or not. Her way to manage the dull work.
Speaking of, we mostly just used a bunch of hand equipment to excavate within the crater. Crews like us did this in areas of interest where bigger, more destructive tools or machinery could damage something if anything was found here.
But nothing had really changed until June 24th, where Cpt. Hanes informed us that Eltyr picked up a signature matching the parameters of this object. Then the crew which detected this signature found the tunnels to be ever so slightly shifting. Sounds very familiar to what I experienced back at the Facility with that office altering its layout. Back when mopping floors and getting fed was the most of my concerns.
In any case, 'Emilie' had been noticeably more chipper after this. So strange to see someone that way yet knowing full well how dangerous she is. And it was impossible to get away from her either, even in leisure or on days off, which I was surprised we had days off.
