An encrypted message requiring a Section 31 was received and given the tardiness of the security, it was clear that the message had been composed in a hurry and transmitted from the Viking using an older encryption S31 key. Anyone with the key would be able to decrypt the message…

OOC: Just starting a little Side Sim for anyone who wants to join in. If you do and you want your character to decrypt the message, just jump in.

Ensign Luna was on duty and writing up a report for a miner disagreement that had happened during her usual patrol . She had been able to catch the message but did not have a key needed to poen it. She know there were people from section 31 onbord the ship sho she chose to go looking for one of them. The section was up to sumthing and she wanted to know what. She was not going to let them harm anyone onbord the Leviathan.

OOC: Kara isn’t exactly S31 either, but possibly her being the former CO of the Viking might help? Either way, she’s also intrigued…

IC: For an entire year, her sleep had been disrupted - by voices, by scratches and crashes and pounding against the walls, no matter where on the ship she had attempted to find slumber. An almost continual state of semi-wakefulness had become the norm for the exhausted captain of the USS Viking. And at that time, in those days that seemed almost carefree now compared to what came after, the half-Klingon would have given anything for a silent, solitary night in her own assigned bed.

It had been a saying oft-quoted by her human father - be careful what you wish for.

Since joining the Leviathan, Nakuto had indeed found the silence she had been seeking. But unexpected had been how desperately her mind had strived to fill that silence. With memories. With shame. With horror and anger and regret. Until she found herself considering that the pounding on her walls might be a blessed, external, relief.

And so it was that, as Luna took to the corridors of the Leviathan, in an attempt to locate some help with the strange message, Kara Nakuto was leaving the Jörmungandr lounge after enjoying a ‘nightcap’ of a bottle of bloodwine. Stepping slightly unsteadily into the passageway, she almost collided with the winged security officer.

“Luna!” Kara called out, delighted as always to see her old friend. Although her perception remained sufficient to see immediately that the other woman was troubled.
“What is wrong, Luna?” she asked, immediately wanting to help.

Luna smiled still a bit supersed to see Kara. ” it well a message from section 31 came into the ship. I can’t open it we could all be in danger” Luna said she was almost panicked. Given what section 31 had put her throw there was no surprise that she was started in to panic.

The half-Klingon frowned. “A message?”
She could sense the rising panic in the other, understandable considering what ‘31 had subjected them to on the Viking. But for herself there seemed no reason for alarm just yet.
“Please, show me,” she requested, “and let us see if we can decipher it before alerting the rest of the ship.”
