WHAT ACTUALLY
HAPPENED AT ORISON

At 03:17 local time, Cell Nine entered the Orison relay beneath the dry reservoir.

Their orders named a data recovery. The recovered ledger named their own command.

Mara Venn transmitted seventeen seconds of evidence before the carrier was severed.

Command designated every surviving member hostile and initiated the Hollow Crown protocol.

No extraction was dispatched. No casualty notice was issued. The unit ceased to exist.
