Blackridge Institute
File Name: Shaya Padlum
Case Entry: #NE127
Efforts to keep Ms. Padlum in my care have been in vain. She is being discharged tomorrow and there is little I can do to convince the administration otherwise. I have spoken with Ms. Padlum and she claims that she will be taking up residence in the Ardus District of Pallad City, where she has a few friends that will help look after her. I wish her the best but, sadly, feel that Blackridge has failed to help this individual in any significant way—a sentiment that is becoming all too common as of late.
Regarding Ms. Padlum’s previous drug-related habits, I can only hope she is able avoid the addictive lure of Sydust and Euphoria—or worse, Afterlife.

YES! I like how clever Reena is. She’s not a great fighter or an expert with guns and she’s not that skilled in much else, but when her back’s against the wall she always thinks up some “outside the box” plan.
Guess this isn’t over yet …
Those case entry files on Shaya paint a pretty depressing picture about how the system in Pallad City is absolutely broken, corrupt, and negligible at best. I’m willing to bet whoever approved her for parole somehow has their hand in whatever is going on in this building.
It also reflects how the Real World is fucked up
You have no right to complain about almost being shoot when you are trying to stab someone.
Crowning irony would be a hangmans fracture.
