 Notes from the Admiral:

 The synopsis is particularly long this week, mostly because I'm sure
 everyone was concentrating on their own little piece of the
 inspection and ignoring all of the others.  As a result, I've tried
 to be a lot more detailed about what went on.  Feel free to read
 only what your character wasn't involved in and skip the rest.  ;)

 See you all next week!  :)


 Sim Title: "Spindle", Part 1

 Teaser and Pre-Sim:
 -------------------
 Admiral Tebrun Lora Kor orders a full inspection of U.S.S. Coronado
 before she can leave the Xanadu facility... and informs Captain
 Daren of this fact.

 During the Sim:
 ---------------
 Before the inspection of Coronado begins, the Admiralty staff
 gathered in the Command Information Center to discuss strategy and
 confirm who was going to go where.  The Admiral reserved Engineering
 for himself, giving Commander Ma'Aru the Tactical department,
 Commander Savant Medical and Science, and Commander Drexler,
 Command and Operations.  General Ironside was to review Coro's
 Marines in a parallel process.  After a quick exchange of
 pleasantries, the five officers scatter to their respective areas of
 responsibility.  Lora Kor, in particular, seemed to be in a good
 mood, and revealed that for the first time in weeks, he didn't have
 his recurring headache.

 Commander Savant headed for Sickbay and headed right into an
 interview with Doctors Reed and Dyson.  Savant started by asking
 Reed if he was happy with the operation of his department, and a few
 minor quibbles aside -- he noted that the Bridge does not send him
 all the information he would like -- he said that he was.  Savant
 noted that the department seemed to be running smoothly in and of
 itself, but digging a bit deeper, noted that there was a bit of
 unprofessionalism in Doctor Reed's treatment of his assistant
 medical officer.  Doctor Reed conceded the point.  Savant then
 asked Reed what his opinion of Coro's command staff was.  Reed
 pointed out that the Admiralty staff seems to be going out of their
 way to look at Captain Daren's missteps rather than his successes...

 Ironside's inspection of the Marines under Major Prescot's command
 went off in a similar fashion.  The General noted sardonically that
 despite the fact that Coro has been in Xanadu for several weeks,
 Prescot has not used the opportunity to drill his troops in the
 varied terrain of the asteroid-starship's Second Chamber.  Though
 privately, the General has noted that he has been impressed with
 Prescot, he was quite demanding to Prescot himself, reading him the
 riot act on any number of levels.  That was nothing compared to the
 lashing the General gave Colonel Wayne when it came time to inspect
 Wayne's Wraith squadron.  In particular, Ironside focused on Wayne's
 "exploration" of the Catapult control chamber and the results of
 that exploration...

 Compared to the others, Commander Ma'Aru's inspection of Tactical
 was surprisingly low-key.  After noting the obvious problems with
 Marcy's handling of the recent first contact mission on Micropolis,
 she got down to the real business of interviewing the Commander on
 Coro's overall Tactical and Security readiness.  Here, she
 encountered no problems -- Coronado's continued survival points to
 diligent Tactical and Security procedures -- but she did ask
 Commander Marcy to compare Coro's recent performance with that of
 other ships in the fleet.  Further, she asked the Commander how she
 felt the Captain was utilizing the department.  However, all in
 all, it was a short inspection for this department.

 By contrast, Commander Drexler was very nearly contemptuous of
 Captain Daren's work aboard Coronado.  In particular, he conducted
 his interview with the Captain in public, on Coro's Bridge, forcing
 Daren to defend himself quite forcefully.  This, the Captain tried
 to do, but with Drexler picking apart nearly every word he said, it
 certainly wasn't easy...  After asking Commander Tlaloco a couple of
 questions, he then turned his attention to Lieutenant D'rall. 
 Drexler then turned his attention back to Captain Daren, this time
 in private.  However, the Commander didn't have very much time to
 speak to the Captain...

 Rear Admiral Lora Kor began his inspection of Coronado's engineering
 spaces by taking Commanders Oswald and Farley down into the bowels
 of the ship, intent on examining the very place where Coroando was
 so badly damaged in her confrontation with the Traxati.  There, he
 found the repairs competently completed, but found the space below
 decks was no fit place for humans.  He then moved then inspection
 back into Engineering proper, where he conducted an interview with
 both Commanders, asking them where they felt engineering operations
 could be improved.  Oswald showed her barely-disguised need to
 "expand her empire" by suggesting that some of the crew of the other
 departments be cross-trained in engineering operations.  Lora Kor
 then asked for a demonstration of the newly repaired warp core.

 This, however, ended in disaster -- a routine attempt to create a
 static warp field created an uncontrolled warp reaction... the
 result of which was to apparently flash-fry the Admiral where he
 stood!
