A Coded Message
"Sir, we've just received a message."
(grumbling) "What is it, Lieutenant?"
"Sir, we've received a transcript from the Intergalatic Interception Station. Shall I put it through?"
(hisses) "Is it coded?"
"Yes, Sir. They're using an older code, but it still checks out."
"Older than MEDUSA encoding?"
"Uh, yes, Sir. It seems to be in Caesar Shift Cipher."
"Get me a holographic link to the IIS. I wish to speak to Zerars Hell."
"Right away, Sir. We'll have to uncloak the zeppelin, though."
"Then make it so, Lieutenant. Put the message through to my chamber."
