Silo Servers

The restricted servers preserve and process silo data; Lukas’s investigation of server six has yielded working access but no understood discovery.

Story so far

Allison recovered remnants of repeatedly deleted and overwritten data from the silo’s servers. The established account blamed rebels during the uprising for the erased history, though fire and power failure were also offered as explanations, and she emphasized the systems’ multiple layers of redundancy. The servers occupy almost an entire floor, with severely restricted access and a power allocation that remains contentious even during a power holiday. Cooling air reaches them from Mechanical.

The rows also conceal more than ordinary data equipment: a locked, mostly empty cabinet hides a headset, while another nearly empty cabinet conceals a handle for unlocking a floor grate. Server thirteen has a blank face and motionless fans. Lukas now reports that supplied passcodes work for his investigation of server six, but he has not yet found a different kind of data or understood its importance.
