Never used that thing... Well, I hope the worst has passed.
So... Why am I here? Which purposes I follow?
The Nomads. They're wonderful. Their technologies, society, energy. But the problem is that they hate humanity, they call us "Darklings"... Ha. I blame stupid Rheinland government for initiation of Omicron Expedition, and I heard the rumors that they have an another one... Idiots. However, I hope that the events of The First Nomad War wouldn't repeat itself... Otherwise, we'll have a really bad time.
But in another thing, I can't imagine my life without them now. I've lost the meaning of life long ago and was living without purposes... Now I have them.
This peculiar race has interested me. I've seen few Nomads before and I hope to interrupt as many of them as possible.

Was flying around and then picked up a familiar signal. It was an "Obsidian", however, the guy who was flying it is... Paranoid. Typical human. Bad fate for such ship... If I meet him once again, I'll be sure that he'd like to attempt to kill me. Uploading voice-recordings to this tape.

[15.03.2016 03:59:29] aerelm: So you're a stalker.
[15.03.2016 03:59:49] William.Daniel.Gaster: Hmh?...
[15.03.2016 03:59:59] aerelm: You're stalkin' me. That's rude.
[15.03.2016 04:00:24] William.Daniel.Gaster: Please. You're out of my interests. But "Obsidian"...
[15.03.2016 04:00:36] William.Daniel.Gaster: Not seen that ship for a while...
[15.03.2016 04:00:36] aerelm: That's what every stalker says.
[15.03.2016 04:01:00] aerelm: I just feel sorry for your type, having nothing better to do.
[15.03.2016 04:01:23] aerelm: Just chasing others around all over all day, goin' "Hmm, this and that"
[15.03.2016 04:02:24] aerelm: Must suck not havin' a life.
[15.03.2016 04:02:26] William.Daniel.Gaster: Uhm I just said that your ship is looks familiar to me. Nothing more, guess? Also Barrier Gate is kinda my home.
[15.03.2016 04:03:15] aerelm: Excuses, excuses. Stop bein' in denial, man.
[15.03.2016 04:03:37] aerelm: You're a stalker, and the best thing you can do for yourself right now is to admit it and seek professional help.
[15.03.2016 04:03:57] aerelm: Be it from a shrink or a hitman; I'd suggest the latter.
[15.03.2016 04:04:48] aerelm: Though, pay that hitman to kill that shrink too while at it; Then you'd be doing everyone a favor.
[15.03.2016 04:05:14] William.Daniel.Gaster: Uhm... I have better things to do. You may consider me as "stalker", but... I. Don't. Care.
[15.03.2016 04:05:57] aerelm: Thinking about it though, you bein' a stalker and not havin' a life and all, you probably won't be able to afford ~
[15.03.2016 04:06:04] aerelm: ~ neither a shrink nor a hitman.
[15.03.2016 04:06:11] aerelm: But then again, there's always the sun.
[15.03.2016 04:06:15] William.Daniel.Gaster: *laugh*
[15.03.2016 04:06:43] aerelm: It's a mere 40k away. Trust me, you won't regret it.
[15.03.2016 04:06:58] William.Daniel.Gaster: Well... Not surprised that most humans are insane *sarcastic smile*
[15.03.2016 04:07:14] aerelm: You'll make everyone happy, and get rid of that godawful excuse of a ship you're flyin at the same time.
[15.03.2016 04:07:19] aerelm: So really... it's a win-win.
[15.03.2016 04:08:06] William.Daniel.Gaster: Boy, as I said before - I don't care about -you-. Your ship has brought me an exitement, that's why we're having a discussion.
[15.03.2016 04:08:47] William.Daniel.Gaster: But if you don't enjoy audience with -me-, it's your choice. I will just hang around with my own stuff.
[15.03.2016 04:09:14] aerelm: I doubt you're old enough for your stuff to be properly hanging yet.
[15.03.2016 04:09:39] William.Daniel.Gaster: Just be sure that watching for your own mouth could safe your life. Somebody won't enjoy that you telling to them.
This guy is way too paranoid and boorish... *groans* Well, off to my researches...

I'm leaving the Barrier Gate. Will have some deals with Omicron Supply Industries and then will fly towards into Omicrons. I hope their Cloaking Device would allow me to pass the defences of Omicron Gamma.

I visited Omicrons today. Still waiting for response from O.S.I. Had met a Predator and someone who called "Bird of Passage"... She's also known as Sapphire Raven and leads "Battlegroup Auxesia"...
Had read their lore, pretty looks like that they're another pile of ex-Core fanatics. Anyway, here's a data about Predators...
Nomad "Rabisu" Predator
Evolved version of Nomad "Sascya" Assassin. Their instincts are now transformed from guardians into predators, which allows them to seek-and-destroy every single target more effective. However, Predator's consciousness has a newest level of understanding, making them more intellegent than their other brothers. Many events says that Rabisus target their enemies most selective than the other nomads, which could be caused by their new sense of situiation between them and humanity. Complete information about Predators is not available, because their native remains undiscovered.
Looks like that they can mimicry our voices, because as soon as I approached him, he called me by my name...

They are strange... And peculiar.
Few minutes passed and I detected a strange signal from Edge Nebula. I headed out to check it and found this. Looks like a Nomad Artifact or something, but when I came too close, my ship was surrounded by fluides. Possbily my presense has provoced a nomads activity near that artifacts and they was summoned... I flew into nebula and found this installation. It was heavily protected by two weapon platforms and mindnodes, I barely escaped from them. However, haven't seen more Predators in the area... I have a bad feeling... about this. Will take a break at Freeport-11 and wait for O.S.I. response.

It's time for my second expedition. After I offered that LIght Cloaking Device from O.S.I, my researches could be less dangerous.
I've detected a strange activity in Omicron Zeta's Pohnpei Asteroid Field. Obviously, it was Nomads.
But looks like it was there all time... Two Defense Platforms was protecting an anomaly, which could be a Jump Hole into their... Homeworld? Glad that they can't detect veiled ships. I decided to use that Jump Hole and check out their capital.
To be honest, I was surprised. The exist was protected by another Defense Platform and I recognized that they use some sort of Cruise Disrputors in combination with their ennormous turrets. But, as I said, they can't detected a veiled ship. I saw that nebula and couldn't resist my thirst to explore it.
Inside of the nebula, I've found a micro-warp system which works pretty similar with ours Trade Lanes. It was also heavily protected by two Defense Platforms and my Cloak Battaries started to run out.
The inner nebula was covered with some sort mine field. Couldn't record any explosion activity, because something was telling me that I shouldn't approach them.
When I exited the micro-warp system, I've seen... This.
A large K'Haran City. It was like inside of Dyson Sphere, but most protected and fortified. Four generators was a power sources far a Shield Screen, but there was something other that attracted my attention.
Four K'Hara-kin Jump Gates. Analysing them and the last events, I assume that these gates leads derectly into our house sovereign space capitals. If that's so, humanity is about to break the edge. I hope that won't happen. However, something was telling me to leave immediately, which I exactly did.
On my way back to Delta, my scanners has detected strange EM activity, like it was a working cloaking device. I'm sure it was two Nomads, who followed me from Iota... I've recorded few readings and will upload them too.
I will recover at Freeport 11 and then try to find something new.

I'm sure that I've seen Zelisnkiy over here... Is he alive? He would probably remember the old colleague. I've heard how he was communicating with someone who's called Tatsori Kongou... If that's true, I can't expect something positive. I've heard news about Battlecruiser Kongou at Freeport 11 with "Nomad-controlled" commander. Will hope that this's not a truth.

Here I am. The secondary scientist of Lightseekers. Could be worst, but Kongou... She's not like she seems. A kind kusarian with opened heart to everyone who supperts her. She provided me an information about Nomads... Perfect. Uploading it with this entry.
Mind-Share
Mind-Share is Nomadic analogy of ours Neural Net, despite of all, theirs minds are "bounded" with each other, that means every single entity can see, feel and hear everything that does it's "brother". The Mind-Share is controled by Root Nodes, one of them known as Desteny's Eye. However, the true Root Node is still remains inrevealed.
Mirror-Share allows Nomads to communicate with Humans, using a visions and presenting their "psychological" model. Once given, the human can "call" to communicate with nomads through Mirror-Share for any purpose.
Technologies
Nomad technologies has a similar sources with Human technologies - Doom K'Vash empire. Before vanishing, they've left their technologies to Nomads. Despite of all, their comprehension of these techs are improved genetically.
Now I'm working with my old pal Zelinskiy back-to-back in his lab. Pretty damn good place to experiment and have a conscensus with an old friend.
She's provided me a mission to find a Nomad Power Cell... That's sounds interesting, I'm in.

I can't actually remember when I used this thing. Feels like the eternity back there. Well, alas, I was a bit busy warking with those... Cultists. Bah! And I thought we had same ways! Oh, Tatsori, you might be quite dissapointed by them... And I understand you... It became more obvious when Thomas decided to make some sort of alliance with auxesians, those... Bloody idiots who-o-o.... a-always pin their noses where they weren't asked to!
Anyway... Here I am... Not "Laguna"... Not a Windcaller anymore. Just Doctor William Gaster. As I was. But... Will I be the same? The society of Nomads completely changed my mind, not in literal sence. Where can I find my place in Sirius? Helping out IRG? They always stuck with Auxesia, not an option. National Council? The Oracles might be infiltrating it, so I have to keep myself further from Malta... And Omicrons, as it seems.
Mmmmrrrrh.... I don't really know what to do now...

It's good to know that there is at least one person that I can call a friend. Seeing how Vertiga treats his crewmates and especially Maren, I think I can trust him... The question is... Can he trust me?... I will never really know.
He suggested to share the information about the shady deals between the Oracles and Auxesia with house governments... But I'm not sure which one should be a good choice. He told me that they had a bad relationship with Liberty in a past, concerning Hellfire Legion... And something that I know personally, Arktos, or Cincinnati couldn't invoke from the air. But can Liberty be the only best option? There is also Kusari Government and Rheinwehr. Something we could really use against Auxesia and the Oracles - is their progress within houses.

Concerning the events of the past month, I had to hide on Gran Canaria... The Oracles and Auxesia might be hunting for me and the life risk is not something I would like to have. I can't count on represents of the Lignt anymore, most likely they will attack me in sight as every other parasite, since the radiator was demolished during my escape...
The governments are having way too many problems now, as it seems, and I don't wish to give them two more. On Rheinwehr side, they have Hessians and Bundschuh, who oftenly terrorise them and trying to overthrow the government... And Kusarians are in way deeper hole - they're having some problems in Kyushu already.
Most concerning... I feel lost without the Light. But than more I think about it, than more I realise that the Oracles were misconepting the comprehension of itself. They were rotting from the inside, beggining from their very own master... Whomever I once considered the most wisest man in the Colonies... The only time I dealt with Auxesians was when they helped me to reestabilish the connection with Her, because Raven knew Her... But I couldn't imagine that they would do such shady business behind our backs...
There is only one way for me to fix everything that The Oracles did... That I did... And that I didn't... I must find the Wilde... I hope it won't be as worse as I think of it....
