She awoke from the simulation with a gasp

"Captain! Are you alright?"

"I've seen so much more than I thought I would..."

"Captain... we should get you down to medical."

"I'm fine, or I will be after a LONG therapy season. But what's important is what I learned in there."

The captain struggles to stand and walk to the window facing the anomaly.

"Captain you need to get down to medical, you're clearly not doing well."

"If you think I'm not doing well, you'll be horrified at his story." a crazed smile grows on the captains face. she presses a button on her wrist system

"We have a class eldritch cognitohazard. information tier: priceless. Get me a call with high command, we will need to divert all our forces to this."

"Captain... what could you have possibly seen in there?! They aren't going to get you a call with high command, they're going to wipe your mind and lock you away!" The captain laughs.

"Not when I tell them I know how to solve our problem, How to destroy the dimensional highway. I met its maker. It's the anomaly. They paved the way by making a deal with the old gods. Preformed miracles and tragedies under their purview. Kept their promise by fighting the gods after giving them one last chance to do what was right. Ascended what was the final layer to become a light in the darkness to entropy and created the unreachable world. And now they sit there, scared and broken. We owe our lives to him, and though it may lead to our deaths, he deserves his happy ending, like he gave to so many others."

Medical and armed guards enters the chamber. The captain is restrained to a stretcher and whisked not in the direction of medical.

"If I die, you must send someone else in! Look for Viren! His name is Viren!"

The last thing lieutenant heard as They were not allowed to follow was the captain begging not to be put under, she didn't want to dream.

And after a short silence, the station went on lockdown, and they were being called to the bridge.
