The glowing on the battleship stopped.

The extreme heat inside died down,


The chamber was quiet.

Cautiously, Lütjens and a few armed sailors went into the room where their battleship was,

The room was blackened with burnmarks, the machinery responsible for the process was mangled horribly,

It was slightly haunting with how quiet the ship was,


Nothing on the outside of the ship looked wrong, despite the terrible conditions of the port that it was in,

but was the inside of the ship still intact?

"I want a full damage report, effective immediately!" Lütjens shouted, breaking the silence

"Jawhol de Herr!"

There was a single retractable bridge that could extend to the ship's deck,

It was covered with burns, and the railing was warped with how much it melted.

"Oh Gott..." a sailor said, staring down at the concrete floor, some thirty five long meters below.

The giant warship was being held up by giant mechanical arms, suspended in the air about ten or fifteen meters high above a large steel launching ramp to slide it into the waters of the port.


The first sailors then boarded the ship, weapons drawn,

The deck, was for all intents and purposes, in perfect condition,

Not even a single singe of Ash or a single burn was on the wood planking.

Nothing was here?.....


"Are you nervous Karl?" A sailor asked

"This seems way too quiet for me..." another sailor said.


It was then that Captain Lindemann stepped foot on his ship, with Admiral Lütjens not so far as a step behind him.

It was initially quite surprising,

The guns were fine, the windows didn't have so much as a smudge on them that wasn't there before.



"The ship looks completely unchanged Herr Käptain." A sailor said, coming from around the other side of the citadel

"Check inside, all of that glowing and those loud noises couldn't possibly have been for nothing.

And, see if you cannot find who was responsible for this, see if you can't get some answers out of them." The Captain responded

"Mein Gott... it's so quiet..." a sailor said

"Keep your head on!" Another sailor followed

It was like hunting for something that was stalking you,

But there was nothing, which was the most unnerving thing.


Not a single thing changed,
