13. Addendum I

Commander Hange,

Hereby the diagrams I promised you.

Consider copying them before you take them into any sort of laboratory or operating room. One bloodstain can cover up pivotal details, and it is always better to have several copies on hand. It took me quite some time to copy these accurately, and it would be a shame if you lost these valuable resources.

Send me a letter back if anything is unclear or if you need me to search the archive for new perspectives.

The aforementioned diagrams are drawn on the back of this letter. The side and back view of a human spine have been drawn at the top of the page using shaky but otherwise passable lines. Each vertebra is labelled in the Warchief's handwriting. Below it, there is a detailed section of vertebra L4 and L5 with between them a clear indicator of where the lumbar puncture takes place and where the important nerves run. Several drawings of bare human backs, one from the side and one frontal, indicate where the needle punctures the skin. A body is drawn in a hunched position with the needle in its spine. The paper contains thin, long-dried blood splatters where the back view of the spine was drawn and a larger slathering of dried blood across the detailed drawing of L4 and L5, both blackened and faded.

The second part of the diagrams doesn't seem to have made its way into this folder. The illustrations of the organ taps are missing.
