To the last of the Insurgency,



Your fight is over. Your chain of command is broken and your leaders have abandoned you. Once Liberty's Navy destroys the last few stragglers in Guadalajara's orbit, they are likely to bombard the unfortunate settlers who did not manage to evacuate. Your Commonwealth is a distant memory, a tattered dream. The only thing Knight led you to separate from was life and breath, and the Legion's ferocious hellfire has entirely burnt itself out. You have no way out, and nowhere left to run.

Except us.

For years, Auxo and the Legion fought side by side in the pursuit of a better, more just galaxy. We collaborated closely on scientific endeavours and worked for the progress of all mankind as friends. It has been a long time since those days, when the Battlegroup Auxesia was enriched by thousands of Hellfire's veterans joining forces with us under The Initiative, when the Legion gained near-daily ground and claimed victory after victory against the Navy. All of it ruined by the twice-traitor Knight's insatiable lust for power. Now she's run off to the Xenos, your other former friends, who turned their backs on you. And, irony of ironies, West has turned tail and plead with Crayter to remain in command of those few ships which she can be bothered to issue orders to.

Yet, the Technocracy has not forgotten. Despite you turning your backs on us, those of Auxo who have served since before your betrayal remember the great fruits once borne of our cooperation. And we know that your last redoubt, the great Leniex, home of the brightest minds still free of Liberty's chains, cannot stand on its own. Surely you must know it too.

Come to us.

We reach out our hand in forgiveness and mercy to all the scientists, engineers, life support specialists, fighter pilots, freighter captains, biologists, physicists, engine technicians, from admiral to ensign, who still keep the great hidden fortress's walls standing. Bring us your technology, your schematics, your weapons, your hopes and dreams, the fruits of your labour, and we will give you sanctuary. The Technocracy will provide you a new banner under which to fight and to live, and new comrades to defend, or ferry you to safety away from Liberty's reach that you may retire, according to your wishes.

Do not let the innovations of decades perish with your fleet.

Do not die alone in Vespucci.



Sentinel Gestalt of the Technocracy of Auxo, speaking for the Directorate and Inner Phalanx, over and out.

Captain Reznik.

Our terms are simple. Load your ship up with whatever equipment, blueprints, and databanks you can grab from Leniex, rendezvous with our people, and hand it all over to us. We will offer you and any men who serve under you a secure exfiltration from Vespucci, and an opportunity to fight under the Technocracy's banner against not only Liberty, but all the perfidious backstabbers who left the Legion for dead, creating a better and more rational, just world. If you have tired of fighting altogether, we can see to it that you are given an out, finding shelter with the Zoners, the IMG, or taken into Rheinland under falsified credentials that won't have the BDM breathing down your neck, so that you can live as a civilian.

Far better than running out of oxygen in some godforsaken nebula, or eventually being found by the Navy and mortared into oblivion.



Noah Angel.

The Technocracy has never "used" you. We stood by your side and fought hand in hand, with mutual exchanges of technology, supplies, and intelligence conducted with regular frequency. When the traitor Knight seized power in your organization, one of the first and greatest mistakes she made was deciding to fight us despite the continual help we offered you. If you reject this offer, there is no one left in Sirius to lend you aid. We already know that the murderous Cretans offered many of your skilled fighters to serve under their flag, and we are greatly disappointed at how many of you took them up on that. We would hope that the same wisdom and discretion you have shown in turning them down would lead you to realize that Auxo is truly your best bet here, but if you insist on maintaining Knight's hostile stance, we will not stop you from dying friendless and alone in a fruitless last stand.

Just know when your ship decompresses that it did not have to end there.



To all others reading this transmission and mulling over their options.

I implore you to make the right decision. Not just for yourselves, but for the future of justice and prosperity in Liberty and in Sirius. You can live to fight another day. The legacy of Drake Thastus does not have to end here.

Noah Angel.

I have no confidence that you will succeed in this endeavour. There is nothing left with which to rebuild. However, if you somehow prove me wrong, do know that Auxo will be here to rekindle what our two forces once shared. If you are dead-set on this, I and the rest of the Technocracy wishes you only the best of luck. If you think better of it, know that our offer will remain.

Of course, you could always split the difference. Entrust us with whatever valuable information and technology remains on Leniex, so that if your efforts to resurge are successful despite the inevitable fall of the Fort itself—realistically, you and I know it is only a matter of time—that all the knowledge gathered by the Legion under the likes of Mori, Locklear, and Brass will have been kept alive in good custody, ready to be returned to you once you have more than a snowball's chance in hell to actually use and protect it. And if I'm right that your efforts are doomed to failure, at least your legacy will stay alive in the innovations of your people, shepherded by the only friend your Commonwealth ever had that never once stabbed it in the back.

Think about it.

Captain Reznik,

I'm glad to hear that you're interested. Whenever you're ready for exfil, let us know over a more secure channel and we'll bring a jump-capable ship to quickly exfil you and your men from Vespucci without catching the Navy or Security Force's attention. The Legion was always a solid and dependable ally, right up until the day that it wasn't. I promise that your people will be taken care of. The Technocracy is many things, but we are not liars.

As for West and Crayter, I wish I knew what was going on there. We have visual confirmation of one of her ships being escorted by their forces to Coronado—how they've done it without the Yellowstone taking note is beyond me, but the fact remains that she left you and the rest of the Insurgency for dead while managing to secure a comfortable exit for herself. I have little doubt that the thought of assisting your remaining forces in a similar way never even crossed her mind.

Anyway, once your data is secured, let us know. What happens afterwards will be discussed in due time, but rest assured we intend to hold to our word.

Dragonfly,

If you want to continue the fight, working with us is likely your best option. The only alternative I can imagine is throwing yourself at the mercy of the Rogues and hoping they don't slit your throat while laughing at you for even trying. You and your handful of surviving crew will be taken good care of should you wish it. As before, our only condition is that you allow us to thoroughly study the inner workings of what's left of your gunship. Exfil to Freeport 14 if you're able, and if not, we can organize a rescue mission on quick notice. Assuming your ship is the Inquisitor model, I can't guarantee we'll be able to keep it running, but if we can, it would benefit all of us to see you continue using equipment you're already familiar with.

Hope to see you soon.
