Is this only a draft of the story? Are you going to delete parts of this story that I comment on so that anyone reading my comment won't understand to what I am referring like you did the other day? Okay, I'll wait.
"... an autopsy on Eftink will be held ..."
Ya mean like a seance?
I know autopsies are conducted or performed, but held? Not exactly a host situation, is it?
If they have an enquest (or is it inquest) that can be held.
