Erich von Streiser

"Guten Tag. I am Obrest (Colonel) Erich von Streiser, Counterintelligence Department. You may already have guessed why we are here. Before we begin, let me remind you: everything you say will be recorded, analyzed, and may be used against you - not only by you, but also by those above me.

There's no point in trying to be smarter than you are. We already know a lot - far more than you think. Your friends are silent, but their silence speaks volumes. Your papers? Intercepted. Your route? Tracked. Still, I'm curious to hear your version of events.

You are not at the front, where you can hide behind the dust and noise. Here, within these walls, they do not shoot - they talk here. And every word you utter can become the last nail in the cap of someone's fate. Maybe yours. Or maybe someone dear to you.

So speak, sir... or keep silent. But remember: silence here is not a virtue, but a choice. And for every choice comes a price.

Let's start with something simple. Your real name, please."
