On the night of the 11th of Fonacius, during routine inspection of sublevels 31-40, an unknown dwarf operative, later identified as a spy, infiltrated the restricted area housing a
Passive Thermolithic Converter (TC-4). The individual went into the converter's intake chamber. The incident resulted in an immediate halt in energy processing and a minor system overload. On-call engineers intervened within minutes to stabilize the system.
Chain of Events
00:25 - Unauthorized Access.Dwarf infiltrates by bypassing security wards and barriers; method is pending investigation. The operative gained entry to the lower engineering levels, where TC-4 is located.
00:47 - Proximity Alert Triggered.Security systems flagged a foreign presence in the converter control area. Security response teams failed to arrive on time.
00:51 - Entry into Converter.The operative, attempting to hide from security personnel, stepped too close to the intake cavity of TC-4 and was sucked into the conversion chamber. At the time, the converter was operating at 72% capacity.
00:55 - Immediate Shutdown.Chief engineer triggered an emergency shutdown to prevent critical damage to the converter. The system failed to initiate stasis mode despite the biological matter introduced.
01:10 - Arrival.Engineers reach converter; exhaust chamber was clogged by a dwarf-shaped pieace of obsidian; all other systems remain intact.
01:12 - Retrival of Petrified Body.Petrified body removed from exhaust chamber, TC-4 resumes operation at 54% capacity.
01:30 - Life Signs Detected.Remains of operative were recovered. Rockspeaking spell revealed subject to be alive and in great distress. TC-4 returns to 72% capacity.
02:01 - Incident Over.interrogation confirmed the individual not being affiliated with any known party. Chief engineer announces all clear.
Conclusion
Likely an act of espionage targeting the converter's technology.
Spy’s petrification and subsequent system overload caused minimal damage to TC-4; operates at full capacity.
Petrified operative locked in a dark cave (IC 211).
A full investigation into potential accomplices is ongoing.
Recommendations
- Reinforced security around critical installations.
- A review of converter design for improved safety protocols.
- Disciplinary action against on-call security.
