To: The Order, Phoenix From: Solar Runners

[Big_B]

Good day,
my name is Tobias Cromwell from the Solar Runners and I'm contacting you because we have a urgent message from the AI consensus.

Planet Primus is currently under quarantine because of a parasite or virus which takes over control systems and turns AI's against the Consensus. The Consensus is warning all Order pilots and Phoenix Zoners which enter Omicron Kappa to proceed with extreme coution and keep distance to planet Primus. In addition, the Consensus prohibits every contact with "The Sentinels" AI ships.

The Solar Runners will not enter Omicron Kappa unless there is an emergency. We hope the Consensus deletes this Virus or Parasite fast out of their systems and make traveling through Omicron Kappa safe again.

Sincerely
Tobias Cromwell

To Tobias Cromwell.

I have heard of it. I do not consider these confused machines to know what they are talking about, if they really believe it to be true. I highly doubt their mystical "nemesis" is capable to infest AI and Terran ships alike on distance, assimilating more and more ships to their cause. If it was truth, Omicrons and finally entire Sirius would be theirs the momenth we speak. I advise you to not listen to this nonsense.

That saying, if those rogue drones indeed start making troubles, there is one solution that AI have failed to acknowledge. Solution, that was used by The Order again and again with great success against all sorts of hostile automatons governed by hacked, corrupted or simply beforehand programmed to destroy artificial intelligencies. We will merely rip them apart with high energy weaponry. I could go into details as to how this threat is overestimated in its capabilities by the Consensus, if your organisation is really that much concerned.

Admiral Golanski out.
