"Noted. Anything you can tell us during this interview will be appreciated, Rich Goranski," one speaks. "We are looking to put together a profile of the people that are tethered to the Void by the craft Voidtrecker Express, and events it has been present to."

They use the same calm tone that's heavy behind their helmets, but by the time taken to give some explanation, it's far from cold indifference.

"So you did not consent to being tethered to the Void, and do not know how it occurred," one of the pair says for confirmation.

"If this is true," the other speaks, "can you tell us what you remember before you were brought to the Void, and your arrival."
