Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ankh-Morpork Guard" data-source="post: 1989520" data-attributes="member: 10079">The Vice Admiral waits for everyone to finish speaking before waving them all silent. He paces across the room a moment and then looks straight at Archimedes, "But you did NOT complete your mission objectives. You were only allowed to stay on that planet because you were needed. When you were not, you were recalled here. The Rebels have escaped."He went silent before stepping back to the center of the room and looked over all of you again, "Your orders were not to kill everyone in that facility. Your orders were to assist the General and his men in aprehending or killing the defectors and the Rebels. To do that obviously requires meeting up with the General. Killing his envoy, be it his son or not, immediately destroys any chance of success. Your delay is what let those Rebels escape."Again, the Vice Admiral went silent, but this time it lasted longer. It was almost a disturbing silence before he spoke again, in a calm but stern voice, "Major Rannick, you were not in command of the unit at the time of the incident. As the General has informed me, you performed your duties as were necessary. "The one who is responsible will be dealt with. Private Dralon, you are to be transported to Coruscant. It seems that the Emperor's top advisors wish to speak of why you allowed the Rebels to escape...your father is one of them who is curious. Lieutenant Tyrcus will accompany you as an escort. It seems that his superiors do not wish him to be involved in an operation with such a blemish on its record. The two of you will be leaving in one hour."As for the rest of you, you will remain here with the fleet an apart of the Krayts. There will be new members joining the squad and hopefully they will assist in the prevention of any repeats of today. We are leaving the system immediately after Private Dralon's shuttle is gone."And without another word, the Vice Admiral left the room. He didn't even look at any of you when he passed by.</blockquote>
