The capital's evacuation platform had never been finished, which nobody outside the Directorate had known until people started landing on it.
Vasa found the construction file afterward, and the file was not hidden anywhere. A national works schedule had listed the platform as staging-complete for two years running.
It had been built as staging rather than reception, with four stairs and no medical bay. The floor under all of it carried a freight handling rating and nothing better.
The capital had planned to finish the work in some later season. Then it suspended every other reception point in the country before starting any of that work.
Five open locks pushed transit completion forward whether anybody was ready for it or not. Nothing in the architecture had ever been built to wait for a reception hall to be finished.
