Setal's Debriefing Room Seat
A plain institutional chair anchored at the debriefing table: utilitarian molded seat and low back, scuffed finish, cool to the touch and bolted or weighted against sliding during heated argument. It creaks under sudden weight as Setal slumps back, absorbing his collapse and framing his exhausted surrender. The seat's modest profile focuses attention on the occupant's posture—shoulders folding, breath shortening—turning a piece of furniture into the locus of a dramatic unmasking.

Purpose
Provide seating for participants in official debriefings, interrogations, and command-room consultations within the ship's debriefing facility.
Significance
Serves as the physical stage for Setal's emotional and tactical collapse: his fall into the seat converts defiant fury into brittle resignation, marking a narrative pivot that escalates suspicion and forces command to treat him as an active instrument in unfolding tensions.
