Edwards,
The following short report is related neither to the Technocracy nor the alien threat, but may be of mutual interest regardless.
Yesterday, at 1320 hours SMT, we encountered the INS
Amenhotep near a pirate port in the Edinburgh system. A brief dialogue with the ship's captain ensued but failed to reveal any information of value. According to Overwatch databases, the
Amenhotep's captain and crew defected and hijacked the ship some years ago to join
your fleet. There appear to have been no official reports of sightings of the ship since.
I assume you can imagine that any information the Fifth Fleet may have on the
Amenhotep and her captain would be of considerable interest to both Section 8 and Overwatch. Seeing as the ship is a commandeered Order vessel, a former Fifth Fleet asset, and now flies your insurgency's colors, some cooperation in this regard should surely be taken into consideration.

[26.04.2021 13:20:35] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Not what I expected to run into out here.
[26.04.2021 13:21:30] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: Well well if it isnt... wait who are you?
[26.04.2021 13:21:44] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: You wouldn't know me.
[26.04.2021 13:22:10] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: So how do you know The Amenhotep.
[26.04.2021 13:22:19] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: If I wouldnt know you.
[26.04.2021 13:22:40] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: The ship's loss from our ranks didn't exactly go unnoticed.
[26.04.2021 13:23:44] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: Your ranks? When The Amenhotep was still residing with the order your designator was not around.
[26.04.2021 13:24:14] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: So I am curious how you know anything about us.
[26.04.2021 13:24:40] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Colonel Holt went on a rather unpleasant rant about you.
[26.04.2021 13:25:54] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: Must be someone new. Never heard of a Colonel Holt. Regardless what is the Order doing so far from the Omicrons.
[26.04.2021 13:26:00] IN|INS-Amenhotep: Are the Nomads not giving you enough work to do?

[26.04.2021 13:26:19] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: The alien threat persists throughout Sirius, not just the Edge.
[26.04.2021 13:26:39] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: And therefore, so does the Order's presence.
[26.04.2021 13:26:52] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: The Edge is where the majority are held. Leaving the front lines is not smart. But Golanski is more worried about what
[26.04.2021 13:27:02] IN|INS-Amenhotep: goes on here instead of what goes on at his door step.
[26.04.2021 13:27:15] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Golanski has nothing to do with our operations.
[26.04.2021 13:27:31] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: As our transponder clearly indicates, we are not an Overwatch asset.
[26.04.2021 13:27:44] IN|INS-Amenhotep: Golanski has something to do with every Order Cell's operation. You just dont know it at least not yet.
[26.04.2021 13:28:02] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Perhaps. That is a matter for my superiors.
[26.04.2021 13:28:04] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: Do you think your the first Order Cell to think Golanski didnt have some sort of influence?
[26.04.2021 13:28:18] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: You are not the first nor the last.
[26.04.2021 13:28:53] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: You certainly sound like you know the man.
[26.04.2021 13:29:22] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: I served under him for awhile. So yes, I do.
[26.04.2021 13:29:44] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: What do you want Agent.
[26.04.2021 13:29:56] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Captain, not agent.
[26.04.2021 13:30:21] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: All Order Personnel are Agents.
[26.04.2021 13:30:36] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: That is blatantly incorrect.
[26.04.2021 13:30:42] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: But no matter.
[26.04.2021 13:30:47] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: Must be some new training regime they have you all brain washed.
[26.04.2021 13:31:16] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: I doubt anyone would call the dockworkers aboard Taba 'agents'.
[26.04.2021 13:31:28] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Or the doctors and medical staff on Akabat.
[26.04.2021 13:31:40] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Regardless. We were simply here to remap the system.
[26.04.2021 13:31:55] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: It's important to have up-to-date star charts.
[26.04.2021 13:32:26] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Ah, an Osiris' cloak. Always impressive.
[26.04.2021 13:32:28] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: Well have at it.
[26.04.2021 13:32:48] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Till we meet again.
[26.04.2021 13:32:56] IN|INS-Amenhotep: A: I doubt that.
Hawkins out.
