Who Was There
Characters present in this moment
Internally probing and sceptical, with a surface calm masking burgeoning suspicion
Observant and strategically probing, the Doctor positions himself to observe Vivien’s command over the Ogri firsthand. His arched inquirement exposes the fragility of her authority, shifting from passive witness to active interrogator.
- • To expose Vivien’s true relationship with the Ogri
- • To challenge her authority before the Megara
- • Vivien’s control over the Ogri is superficial or contingent
- • Legal and procedural loopholes can expose deceptions
Feigned control masking underlying vulnerability to scrutiny
Standing firm with an eerie composure, Vivien commands the Ogri to halt under the Megara’s directive. Her voice remains steady even as unspoken tension thickens beneath the surface, betraying no visible reaction to the Doctor’s barb.
- • To maintain the facade of power over the Ogri
- • To preserve the legal authority granted under the Megara’s jurisdiction
- • Her command over the Ogri is absolute but must appear unwavering
- • Avoiding direct confrontation with the Doctor preserves her long-term strategy
N/A, as Megara are emotionless automata
The Megara issues a literal, procedural command to the Ogri, reinforcing the rigid hierarchy within the derelict ship’s legal framework. Their metallic presence is authoritative, exercising their judicial mandate without compromise.
- • To prevent harm to their designated prisoner
- • To reinforce the jurisdiction of Megara law
- • Their orders supersede all others
- • Justice is absolute and cannot be negotiated
N/A, as the Ogri are emotionless silicon-based entities
The Ogri arrive under Vivien’s command, halting at her instruction to the Megara’s order not to harm their prisoner. Their silicon forms contract unnaturally, entering a suspended state under her once-compelling influence.
- • To comply with Vivien’s commands
- • To pause their relentless pursuit under Megara’s directive
- • Obedience ensures energy conservation
- • Harming the prisoner would violate current constraints
