Bonjour. I'm called Paracusia.

Alaska and the Carcassonne. Quite the tall order.

But well within our abilities. Give us a few days and we should have something for you.

Monsieur ou madame,

You can call me Mindcrime. I am one of the senior coordinators of the Octavarium Intelligence Commission. As such, my job usually involves me piloting a desk, but for a mission of such a sensitive nature, the most experienced hands are often the best.

A summary of the data I have acquired follows:

• The easiest into Alaska is via a jump hole to the Virginia system; the system is best known as formerly being heavily secured by the Liberty Navy but in recent years, portions of the system have become open to civilian traffic, making it fairly easy to enter when one is pretending to be a freelance cargo pilot.
  
• North of the Alaska side of the jump hole there is a jump gate that has been constructed at the end of a series of navigation pylons flanked by weapons platforms. Assessment of the capabilities of the platforms was not performed, though they did attempt at least two missile locks as I passed. [ Attachment: Image ]
  
• Continuing down the navigation pylons resulted in being dangerously close to the battleship Minneapolis. The path from there is a trade lane under construction to the south. [ Attachment: Image ]
  
• The lane southbound is estimated to be halfway to completion, possibly more. Its southern terminus is an odd-looking station flying Ageira transponder codes. It was at that point that I thought it best to continue off the beaten path and dove into the clouds to intentionally induce scanner interference. [ Attachment: Image ]
  
• Following distorted shapes of navigation buoys and lane construction sites resulted in a partial vision of something that... well, I will let our footage speak for itself. [ Attachment: Image ]
  

They have your ship, alright. It wasn't apparent from the outside what they were doing, but its IFF transponders were active, so they had the lights on in there.

Hopefully this is helpful to your organization. I know it sure is enlightening to mine, and, well... thank you for the opportunity to get my hands dirty again. Been a while since I've gotten in the cockpit.
