fardell24Forbidden Planet – After Action Report
C-57D
Two days after leaving Altair, Commander Adams had yet to complete his After-Action Report on what had occurred. He had begun it many times. All of them commended his fallen officers for their service. But he didn’t know how to go about describing what had occurred. Ancient machinery capable of creating monstrous entities seemed absurd. Then there were the parallels with various classical pieces of literature.
He had just finished reading The Tempest, which, like the rest of William Shakespeare’s works, was stored in C-57D’s electronic library. It almost seemed as if the Bard was prescient. (But he considered that to be absurd also.) At least Altaira hadn’t said “O brave new world that has such people in it!”
At that moment, Altaira came over. “You’re still stumped?” she asked.
“Yes. I’ve never had a problem like this before.”
“Maybe you need to think outside the box,” she said.
“It certainly was a unique situation,” Adams conceded. While Humanity had discovered other sapient species, none were like the Krell.
