Short and unpleasant. I suppose that when the Admiral gives us ports that turn out to be completely unsalvageable, that's the best he can offer us.
Not pointless -- you might have noted I did not use that word. If anything, my brief sojourn into the mad wilderness yielded some experiences that were most illuminating. Even on top of knowing what it feels like to be shot in the face -- an advent about which I'm certain Monsieur Swing will be delighted to hear.
Note also that I didn't say "eaten alive". I'll let the lot of you ponder on that. I might have to write about that one someday, but for now? Rest, I think.

Are you safe?

We'll have to go to the pub and have a drink together properly once you are recovered. [Thoughtful, but planned, pause.] It's just occurred to me that I haven't told you very much about myself, which isn't really fair.
My full name is Adrian Veidt. I'm a well known public figure in my world, which is why I hesitate to give my last name here. I'm also an inmate, if you hadn't already assumed or if that colors your opinion of me at all. Does it?
