Subj: Something on the loose

Greetings.

I believe you might have a carrier on the loose. Saw it jumping away in a company of an Auxesian Dreadnought, looks abit suspicious to me. I apologize for not being able to catch it's ID and IFF but you'll have to bear with my word on that one - it was a Zoner as far as I could understand, if it was otherwise, I would have catched it immediately. Oh and here's some conversation between it's captain and auxesians about some transhumanist things.

Code:
[05.08.2019 13:23:26] Sparta: Aoi: Sorry we're late. Those coordinates are pretty outdated, i must say.
[05.08.2019 13:23:34] /1
[05.08.2019 13:23:34] SCEC|S-A.Grachov: Hello there!
[05.08.2019 13:23:46] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Mmm.
[05.08.2019 13:23:52] Velvet|Opal: ?: "Mmm.."
[05.08.2019 13:23:59] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Mhm.
[05.08.2019 13:24:03] SCEC|S-A.Grachov: Mm.
[05.08.2019 13:24:05] Velvet|Opal: ?: "Mhm?"
[05.08.2019 13:24:09] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Mmm.
[05.08.2019 13:24:17] Sparta: Aoi: very constructive.
[05.08.2019 13:24:17] Velvet|Opal: ?: "Hrm."
[05.08.2019 13:24:19] SCEC|S-A.Grachov: Mmm...
[05.08.2019 13:24:25] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: MMM.
[05.08.2019 13:24:26] Velvet|Opal: ?: "You get bored guarding a freeport."
[05.08.2019 13:24:27] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Hmmm.
[05.08.2019 13:24:36] Velvet|Opal: ?: "Where did you find that Aquillon?"
[05.08.2019 13:24:41] SCEC|S-A.Grachov: Mm-hm-hmm...
[05.08.2019 13:24:51] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: You make it sound like the vessel is a lost puppu.
[05.08.2019 13:24:51] Sparta: Aoi: I am not supposed to answer your inquiries.
[05.08.2019 13:24:54] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: puppy, even.
[05.08.2019 13:25:05] Velvet|Opal: ?: "Wh-okay..."
[05.08.2019 13:25:12] Velvet|Opal: ?: "No problemo."
[05.08.2019 13:25:29] A/)-ACV-Achlys: <:: Plasma venting completed. ::>
[05.08.2019 13:25:57] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Oh, don't let the young bots hear that, they're not old enough to hear that!
[05.08.2019 13:26:22] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Don't announce when you need to vent plasma, just let it out in silence.
[05.08.2019 13:26:26] Sparta: Aoi: Long range scans indicate the cruiser lacking any long range artillery. Such a waste of a perfectly good ship.
[05.08.2019 13:26:39] Velvet|Opal: ?: "What?"
[05.08.2019 13:27:02] Sparta: Aoi: If you've got no idea how to operate a Q-Ship - scuttle it and get something suitable.
[05.08.2019 13:27:24] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: An interesting feedback.
[05.08.2019 13:27:48] Velvet|Opal: ?: "Whatever."
[05.08.2019 13:28:07] Sparta: Aoi: I happened to command a Q-Ship in the past. The way they do it is not the right one.
[05.08.2019 13:28:24] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Well. There is no right or wrong.
[05.08.2019 13:28:40] Sparta: Aoi: There's just dead or alive.
[05.08.2019 13:28:44] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Yes.
[05.08.2019 13:28:48] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Ultimately, we die anyway.
[05.08.2019 13:28:59] Velvet|Opal: ?: "I agree with that"
[05.08.2019 13:29:06] A/)-ACV-Achlys: <:: Speak /for/ yourselves. ::>
[05.08.2019 13:29:07] Velvet|Opal: ?: "What would you recommend then?"
[05.08.2019 13:29:12] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Allow me to readjust, anything that lives will eventually die.
[05.08.2019 13:29:27] Sparta: Aoi: I've worked on overcoming that limitation. I heard that a certain famous person managed to actually do that.
[05.08.2019 13:29:42] Velvet|Opal: ?: "You talking about a singularity?"
[05.08.2019 13:29:53] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: You might seek to invest in some cerberus turrets, or perhaps even seek a light mortar.
[05.08.2019 13:30:25] Sparta: Aoi: I speak about abandoning the fragile vessel you call "body".
[05.08.2019 13:30:26] Velvet|Opal: ?: "I'll...think about it."
[05.08.2019 13:30:34] Velvet|Opal: ?: "Oh transhumanism."
[05.08.2019 13:30:43] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Now, that isn't necessarily transhumanism.
[05.08.2019 13:30:53] Sparta: Aoi: In favor of existing outside of the boundaries of flesh.
[05.08.2019 13:31:01] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Transhumanism is to do something considered... not natural. Flying, for example, is transhumanism.
[05.08.2019 13:31:11] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Being in space right now, transhumanism.
[05.08.2019 13:31:18] SCEC|S-A.Grachov: Psst, cap of Opal, for real. They might be harsh, but the advice is there. Get a mortar, it will be a hand to you.
[05.08.2019 13:31:19] Velvet|Opal: ?: "I'll go replace my weapons..."
[05.08.2019 13:31:25] 2019-08-05 13:31:25 SMT  Traffic control alert: Velvet|Opal has requested to dock
[05.08.2019 13:31:27] Sparta: Aoi: Digitised memories are unnatural.
[05.08.2019 13:31:37] Death: Ron_Star was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[05.08.2019 13:31:47] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: I'm pretty unnatural.
[05.08.2019 13:31:54] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: Yes. Yes you are.
[05.08.2019 13:32:03] Sparta: Aoi: And i know about at least one case of that made to be real.
[05.08.2019 13:32:14] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: It's not all it's cracked up to be.
[05.08.2019 13:32:33] Tip: The world of Freelancer is full of ambiguity just like real life is. Not all characters showing up as hostile are your enemies. Likewise - not all characters showing up as neutral are your friends.
[05.08.2019 13:32:44] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: It depends. If you are willing, it is a thrill. Obviously, if you don't desire it, you won't like it.

[05.08.2019 13:33:30] A/)-ACV-Achlys: are certain parts of yourself you end up losing.
[05.08.2019 13:34:57] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: There's no enjoyment of food anymore. Sleep REALLY sucks. You don't get it.
[05.08.2019 13:35:09] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: You feel tired all the time.
[05.08.2019 13:35:17] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: It sounds like your augmentation was not compatible. You are... missing functions.
[05.08.2019 13:35:29] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: No, we went over that, remember?
[05.08.2019 13:36:13] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: That is because you were to die by natures will, but you overcame the cruelty of nature.
[05.08.2019 13:36:36] A/)-ACV-Achlys: L: Yup.

If I were you, I'd keep an eye on it.

Melissa is sat at her desk, as the report comes in she sighs with disappointment. She thinks for a second as she remembers the last time Auxesia decided to show their heads in Delta and the nightmare it caused. As she begins to address Anatoliy Grachov she smiles and bows her head.

"Mr. Grachov, allow me to introduce myself, I'm Melissa Jones, leader of Velvet and Administrator of Freeport 11.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Given my past dealings with the Covenant and the agreements that came from it, I am very disappointed with what they are doing yet again. The fact taht they have bought capital ships to the No Fire Zone despite their agreement to let me know before hand, it is disappointing to say the least. However, with everything I know about them, this comes as no real surprise.

Given what you say regarding the one ship being Zoner ID and IFF, the vessel's patterns from the gun cam picture you provided as well as the checks through several archives, we can confirm this ship to be 'The Sparta', which has a very interesting history here. One which I am still finding out.

Also, I will have to speak to the other ship with whom we can identify from your gun cam provided, as she is a close friend of mine, so might be able to shed more light on this.

For now, before I bore you with all the details, I can only thank you greatly for bringing this to our attention."


Just before the transmission ends, Melissa smiles and bows her head.
