Redoubt Project Report

Report: Redoubt Project, Iteration 732, Test Universe 41
Contains all available logged, post-interpreted data for emergency paradigm #17/49, plus executive commentary from assigned Oversight Agent.


-> Technical Log begins.


Wormhole generator activated 8.32*7^5 ticks before final system coherence loss.

Fetching primary paradigm instance.

Source target #1 spatio-temporal focus drill-down (old colloquial nomenclatures): Local Group, Milky Way, Sol System, Planet Earth, North American Continent, Federation of American States, Nova Scotia, Dartmouth, 91 Alderney Drive, Suite 2, Cubicle 7; 14:27:38.8274 20 July 20XX. Displacement volume: 2 cubic meters. Heuristic biomatching active.

Refined results: 1 x biological lifeform, old-Earth human male, 27 years old, plus items on person.

——Attached log from wormhole-destination semi-intelligent fields: Subject received. Subject activated. Detect imminent biofunction failure due to high-vacuum environment. Error. Error. Subject paused. Destination inhospitable. Request formed for possible survival-reformatting base instance; requirements: { no-O2, cold-hardy, physical adept }. Sending request.——

Destination request received. 4.09*7^3 ticks before final system coherence loss. Expedite Mode activated. Request requirements insufficiently exact. Performing wide-range search for suitable base instance. Error. Error. Error. Instance located. Fetching instance.

Source target #2 spatio-temporal focus drill-down unavailable. Nomenclature refinement system failure. Source region unknown. Substrate taint detected: possible cross-contamination due to endgame sub-Planck lexical diffusion. Time unknown. Displacement volume: 2 cubic meters. Weak heuristic biomatching active.

Refined results: 1 x bio-questionable lifeform (outside additional data classifies as “Equestrian pegasus-pony”), 32 years old, plus items on person.

——Continued log from dest-end fields: Subject #2 received. Suitable reformat base instance…confirmed. Subject #1 reformatting…successful. Subjects activated.——

Wormhole generator general systems failure. Decoherence detected, safe shutdown protocols initiated.
