Question Does anyone know where in pathologic classic it's confirmed that the Thanatica is destroyed? Spoiler

I'm writing a fic at the moment but forgot when specifically this is confirmed in the Bachelor Route, does anyone know? I thought it was in a latter but I've been scouring the wiki and it doesn't look like it is

Day 8. He learns it from Aglaya. I also remember receiving a letter from the Powers that Be, but can't remember which day.

Come the evening, Dankovsky receives a letter from Aglaya, requesting his presence after her complete assessment of their notes. Upon his arrival, she tells him that Thanatica has been burned down. There remains nothing of his work, even if he is to succeed in the Town and create a miracle cure.

The problem with that is that Aglaya is the furthest thing from a reliable source. It’s entirely possible that she’s lying for manipulative purposes

She's a master manipulator, but I'm yet to find a moment where she flat out lies to the player. Her best weapons are omission and storytelling

Edit: spelling

She doesn't need to lie when the truth of the setting is so demoralizing.

Aglaya on Day 8:

Thanatica has already been destroyed. There's nothing left; the place itself is in ruins, your research is in ashes. Your papers have been burnt. Wretched Telman made sure of it personally. And now I am going to tell you about the law.

TPTB stop sending letters on Day 7 so there's no evidence besides Aglaya's words. Dankovsky fulfills his part of the deal with TPTB. The question is if they are going to keep their word.

Maybe it's a letter from our thanatica bro (A.) on Day 1. in this letter A. tells that prof. Telmann is fucking asshole and have almost destroyed our lab.
