Regarding the lapse of security around Zone 21, I believe that it may be I who is to blame. The San Francisco was supposed to be on shift around the gate when we were called to a distress call in the California system. I assumed the automated defences would cover for us while we were gone, and none of the proximity alarms were set off.
Still, you went through an extreme journey because of my mistake, and I apologies from the bottom of my heart, and shall accept any punishment you deem fit.
