The Centinel

Sole survivor of the SM-3 and the moon Z-8, once a Child of Eden. With an insatiable hunger and an animalistic sadism, all fear...

<coi advanced informational terminal> this is a remote database. last updated today [5/379] [entry] capillary laboratories [body] residing within capillary station, capillary laboratories (also called caplabs for short) is the primary research facility of the coi. though its number of employees have diminished over the years, capillary laboratories remains dedicated to the betterment of the coi in the wake of the quiet rapture. 

as of present the focus of capillary laboratories’ research is engineering new ways to cultivate plant life from what remains of seeds and biological food material in existing ration stores. 

research is largely done on the ground floor by the laboratory scientists. the greenhouse supports flora while the capillary laboratory science team occupy collaborative and isolated research rooms, office and recreational spaces, specialized storage rooms, and a loading bay for importing and exporting material. 

the basement of the facility houses storage of decomposition pods specially designed to turn waste into nutrient-rich soil, as well as a full mortuary, and one of the most expansive physical archives in all of the coi. at the epicenter, the private laboratory of capillary laboratories’ director of research dr. juliet sanguine is frequently utilized for private research projects.

<coi advanced informational terminal> this is a remote database. last updated today [6/378] [entry] the sm-3 [body] after the events of the quiet rapture, four known moons both with existing oceans and without mysteriously developed seas of blood on their surfaces.

the crew assigned to the investigation of these four blood moons started out significantly larger than it ended (upon the death of the presiding captain). in fact, the council deemed the blood oceans so potentially important to the rebuilding of humanity, a little under sixty people from a handful of expertise were brought onto the project. With the already minimal population of the coi at the time, such a dubious decision was kept under tight wraps.

when it began, “convict realization” (the coi’s humane process of integrating prisoners of war into society) was far tamer, taking the form of far more menial prison labor as a means to pay off the inmate’s debt. the almost mob justice it evolved into only arose with the unwillingness of the coi to lose any more of its population to the research of the quiet rapture. among these subjects of interest were the blood oceans.

the first moon on their radar; the largest; claimed seven of the initial sixty crew, as well as an undocumented number of martian convicts. ironically, it wasn’t until someone survived the expedition that z-8 was determined not to be worth the cost.

roughly three of the submersible fleet went down into the stifling depths on the moon. the sm-1 and sm-2 were lost and never recovered after only a few crew-led journeys each. the sm-3, on the other hand, was torn into scrap for the construction and repair of the rest of the fleet after its third voyage, which also served as the second trial run for the evolved form of convict realization.

the returning convict, the only survivor of z-8, spent six days in the oxygenless vessel several meters below the determined “danger zone” of the red sea in what is assumed to have been a gradually flooding sm-3. his survival remains largely classified.

after the incident involving the last voyage of the sm-3, radio communication was from thereon added to all submersibles, including burners.
