about

Dmitri begins his shift by investigating the source of interruptions to power to secondary engines. The way is marked by two rows of yellow emergency lighting leading him to a steel ladder down into the basement level. To his left he notes diesel residue underneath where the night-shift engineer had replaced the valve housings. The smell of hydrocarbon hangs in the air and clings to the beads of sweat on his face like thin plastic film. He wipes it away with the back of a dirty glove and through narrowed eyes can see the orange light flashing above Engine 2, indicating a malfunction. The P2 face mask his employer gave him at the start of his shift was now blotted black and grey with grease and oil. Trying not to break the flimsy elastic headband, he puts it over his mouth and nose and begins troubleshooting.
