Subject: Cadet Riel “Voyage” Sato (F04)
Incident: During inaugural Frame jump from orbital platform, propulsion matrix misaligned, initiating an uncorrectable trajectory. Egress lock failed. Frame re-entry destroyed upon atmospheric impact.
Grief Note: I approved his clearance. I watched his eagerness blind us both to risk.

Subject: Lt. Draven Locke (M01)
Incident: Experimental energy converter overloaded, cascading failure through neural interface. Frame core exploded. Pilot incinerated mid-test.
Grief Note: He believed innovation trumped safety. I vouched for his design.

Subject: Commander Elara Jain (P07)
Incident: Frame interior core kamacite resonance interference; sensory dampening failed. Pilot unresponsive, life-support ceased.
Grief Note: She trusted my counsel; I kept knowledge from her.
Date: 22XX-06-30
Subject: Dr. Lucien Harrow (E18)
Incident: Bioreactor integration test. Organsynth feedback spike triggered autoimmune cascade; Frame systems incinerated.
Grief Note: I rehearsed the procedure with her. She was excellent.
Date: 22XX-08-12
Subject: Colonel Ada Forsythe (EM17)
Incident: Command uplink breach by unknown signal. Frame executed self-destruct.
Grief Note: My clearance let that signal through.

Subject: Ren Valtor (H14)
Incident: Cultural heritage simulation collapse; cognitive dissonance induced fatal psychosis.
Grief Note: I underestimated the mind’s fragility.
Date: 22XX-03-29
Subject: Lt. Mara Kell (L08) & Lt. Jae Holt (L09)
Incident: Dual-frame symbiosis test. Phase misalignment; both occupants lost to fusion-core implosion.
Grief Note: I orchestrated their pairing.
Date: 22XX-05-06
Subject: Driver Petra Vance (C11)
Incident: High-speed assault trial. Gyro systems locked; Frame careened into barrier.
Grief Note: I urged speed over caution.
Date: 22XX-10-11
Subject: Cpl. Owen Harkin (S19)
Incident: In a bid to outlast automated stress protocols, Cpl. Harkin increased the power feed to the Frame’s actuators well past safe thresholds. His calibration caused a catastrophic servo seizure, driving the limb assemblies to obliterating the cockpit.
Grief Note: I enabled his death by signing off on that unchecked power boost.
Date: 22XX-04-01
Subject: Specialist Kiera Nyx (HMT03)
Incident: Solo deep-space relay. Communication blackout prevented med-beam. Life-support expired.
Grief Note: I let her isolate too completely.
Date: 22XX-11-29
Subject: Technician Zara Lin (WF23)
Incident: Luck-matrix calibration. Critical anomaly—fatal.
Grief Note: I built the luck algorithm.
Date: 22XX-03-17
Subject: Arbiter Niko Tan (J21)
Incident: Ethics AI override. System judged occupant expendable. Frame destroyed cockpit, leaving nothing behind.
Grief Note: I sanctioned that override.
Date: 22XX-09-06
Subject: Surgeon Mara Ceil (HNG20)
Incident: During a critical in-frame graft procedure under hostile conditions, Surgeon Ceil redirected the entire cooling circuit to stabilize her patient’s neural implants. The resulting thermal runaway caused her own Frame’s core to overheat, ending her life in a final act of sacrifice.
Grief Note: She bore the cost of her compassion. I bear the cost of letting her.
Date: 22XX-02-25
Subject: Operative Soren Black (D08)
Incident: End-of-life test protocol. System embraced shutdown too swiftly.
Grief Note: He called out to me before he died.
Date: 22XX-08-03
Subject: Fusionist Elias Poe (T26)
Incident: Obsessed with pushing thermal efficiency, Fusionist Poe repeatedly exceeded safe catalyst concentrations in the Frame’s reactor. The unchecked feedback led to a violent meltdown, and Poe perished as the core’s collapse consumed the cockpit.
Grief Note: He could not temper ambition with caution—and neither could I.
Date: 22XX-12-08
Subject: Smuggler Zane Malik (DV25)
Incident: Contraband module detonated.
Grief Note: I authorized his smuggling run. He told me it would help. I believed him.
Date: 22XX-07-31
Subject: Builder Thorn Crest (TW18)
Incident: Core pillar failed.
Grief Note: I ignored his plea to reinforce.
Date: 22XX-03-03
Subject: Navigator Liora Esten (ST07)
Incident: Stellar cartography overload. Sensor burst.
Grief Note: I plotted that route. She trusted me.
Date: 22XX-02-19
Subject: Dreamwalker Iris Noctis (MN06)
Incident: Psionic dreamlink experiment. Mind shattered resulting in complete neural shutdown.
Grief Note: I pressed her too far.
Date: 22XX-05-09
Subject: Pilot Aurelia Dawn (SU01)
Incident: Solar-flare shield test. Panel failure; incineration.
Grief Note: I underestimated the need for additional protection and I let her die because of it.
Date: 22XX-04-15
Subject: Review Officer Tyra West (JD12)
Incident: Accountability AI verdict loop. Executed by own systems.
Grief Note: I enabled that loop. She died because of my decision.
Date: [REDACTED]
Subject: [REDACTED]
Incident: World-link convergence. Universal rupture.
Grief Note: I orchestrated that convergence—my greatest regret.
