[SERA — POV]
The panel's findings came on the following Monday.
She sat in the formal room with Dorn on one side and the two other panel members — both of whom she'd worked with at various points and neither of whom she knew well enough to read — and received the findings.
Substantiated: unauthorized coordination with a Noctis operative outside sanctioned channels.
Substantiated: withholding of operational intelligence from commanding officer.
Substantiated: approach to Council member in contravention of divisional reporting protocol.
Finding: all three substantiated actions were conducted in service of a legitimate investigation into a real and documented threat, with evidence that pursuing standard channels would have compromised the investigation and potentially cost lives.
