The Bridge: Time and Isolation, part 1 · 5:10am Dec 20th, 2014
Just a small teaser I whipped up while working on the chapter. Didn't feel like it warrented a chapter and didn't want to confuse anyone, so I'll just drop off the parts in log styled blog posts. Enjoy!

Day 1
I seem to be imprisoned inside some large earthen structure, a psychic link seems to be keeping me contained. Mentally recording events and thoughts to enact sanity preservation protocol. Will continue to best of ability until freed. Reasoning for entombment unknown, confident the fleet will free me soon, I can sense them close. I have a feeling I was in combat before entombment but can't recall against what or where.
My name is Praetorian Guard 094. I was born 29 solar orbits ago to Astrological Engineer 4872 and Praetorian Guard 013. I am in union with Controller 011, we were married five solar orbits ago after Controller 010 died. Volunteered for Project New Titan 0.1 solar orbits from presumed entombment date. Operation carried out due to an attack, someone had to stop...him... 011 assured me I'd become strongest warrior who ever lived. I hope I was strong enough to succeed.
Day 193
Very strange. Fleet's presence still so close by, yet nothing has happened. Is there a battle going on outside? Are they being held back by the enemy? Am I prisoner of war? What enemy force could capture me so easily? I became the vanguard of the fleet, no prison could possibly contain me.
My name is Praetorian Guard 094. I was born 29 solar orbits ago to Astrological Engineer 4872 and Praetorian Guard 013. I am in union with Controller 011, we were married f-five, yes five solar orbits ago. Volunteered for Project New-t Titan 0.2- no 0.1 solar orbits from entombment date. There was an attack of some sort. I think I fended it off but, then why am I imprisoned? Did I fail?
Day 237
Attempts to breach containment results in massive psychic shock. It's antagonizing. I could crush this rocky tomb like a feather between my hands, yet pressured attempts could result in fatality. My captors are more than willing to kill me if necessary. They are afraid. Continuing preservation protocol. Help should come soon. Having persistant nightmares of a burning city.
My name is Praetorian Guard 094. I was born 29 solar orbits ago to Astrological Engineer 4*@2 and Praetorian Guard 0$^. I am in union with Controller 011, we were married um.. awhile ago... V-volunteered for Project ...uh what was it called again? Was a mythological code name. What was it?...
Day 752
Further attempts to break free result in worse and worse shocks. One more try could kill me, I know this. Must hold out. Surely rescue will come soon... Sensing complications with protocol, night terrors not allowing me to focus.
My name is Praetorian Guard 094. I was born 290 solar orbits ago to *#^02 and 0$^... N-no they had numbers in their names, what where they again? Father was an engineer and mother was a guardswoman. Yes that's what they were. I am in union with someone, we were married I think. Yes, Controller 011 was her name. How could I forgot? She proposed to me shortly after her promotion. I-I volunteered for, something... WHAT WAS IT?! A project? I-it was called something! Why can't I remember?!.
ok you lost me...what is this?
