Dawn of Truth - Krumai - 03-15-2021

Across the vast expanse of space, I've reminisced about my experiences from when I was the leader of a clan. From all the pleasant and traumatic experiences along the way, they are only the beginning. My destiny brought me here, away from my home, Kusari. You may know the grief of being away from what you loved the most, but to me, it is a useful lesson to move on.

Most laypeople call this system Omicron Zeta, a place "full" of dangers. I've already had a nice conversation with Katherine Pennybrooke, confirming that this is not the case and is actually the other way around. You should know that the Order and the Core fight against each other, that is plain fact. They are simply too blind to know the intentions of our friends in the light. An abode that I can actually live in comfort, compared to my former birthplace of Ainu. Despite the threat posed by the Order, my life here has been more satisfying than in Kusari.

I wander around the system, its bright yellow sun, and its magnificent ring. Still I ponder around for weeks on end, traveling the distance with nothing interesting to be found. Yet I somehow came with a very important realization. An awakening I felt like the one that happened several months ago. I feel the presence of Disani. She is calling for me to embark on a journey. I will do whatever I could to fulfill my quest to honor my own heritage and culture.

The dawn of truth has already begun.

I've seen things here and there. From accusations to battles. It is the nature of human instinct that the people are still divided. You know, when the Order accuses you for nothing? Where is the basis behind this? I couldn't help but wonder about the inherent flaws that most of the dwellers here have. Even from my days as a sister of the Golden Chrysanthemums, I've heard numerous accusations about me. But there is one thing here: truth is infallible. It stands even in times like this.

I've heard about the Order a lot of times now. They sneak up on people for the purpose of "weeding out" infected spies to "save" humanity. Misguided fools who only seek to destroy what I have cherished. The Core may have the same intentions on us, but at least they do not make such accusations. Trust me, it wasn't a pleasant sight after a recent crusade on a group of Corsairs who share the same flaws as any other human who is blind to the truth.

Erm... I almost forgot. Katherine Pennybrooke was with me. Had a nice little talk about humanity today, agreeing with all of my points. She is what I call my role model. I hope Disani blesses us in pure truth. Needless to say, I feel relieved for the first time in weeks.

Terrible things have unraveled. The departure of the lost mindshare from the greater share. O Disani, I bow to you, for even the bringers of light can be tainted from the primeval instincts of humanity. It simply got the better of their judgment. Whatever, I'm with the mainshare; the truth is with them.

It feels so saddened to see Pennybrooke's lover, Melia, departing from her emotional world. I've told her she will find a new place in the mainshare and with us. Hopefully she will be satisfied. Now to my other contact, miss Enma Loyola.

Several months ago near Ainu, I met her alongside Eliza Valdez. The Gen'an party that arrived brought no suspicions after I told her about the Golden Chrysanthemums and its cells. Now, seeing that things have changed alot, it serves as a rallying call for me to take action once more. A prophecy about to be fulfilled. May Disani guide me in the way to success.

How ironic. These so-called Outcasts decided to venture deep into Omicron territory in their big ships. I saw them claiming to be "worshippers" of the ancient ones, or more generally the bringers of light. All while disagreeing with every point I made. Does it earn them a Darwin award for their foolishness? When they saw one of them, they were too keen to activate their instincts once more. I hope they learned their lesson.

Anyways, back to personal matters. I should prepare for my own mission. Travel outside my comfort zone hoping no suspicions arise. For this purpose I repurposed an old Drone lent to me by an Ashkun clan member of the Cubhras Handhas. If that works, maybe I'll get to see Enma Loyola again.

This is Uzume, erm... Krumai, my alter ego. For this mission I refitted my old Drone, the "Disani", and went for a stroll across Sirius. It's been purged of anything suspicious, so no one would discover who I really am, including anyone who stumbles across my private journal. Are you looking for me, hai?

Anyways, I went to Cambridge and on my way I met someone named Jaina Wheeler. A fine Libertonian I would say, and we shared our experiences with the houses and how authoritarian they could be. She leads a faction called Bristol Constructions, which is based in Bering. We jumped to Pennsylvania and remarked about our experiences, as a "freelancer". To know more about the systems surrounding Liberty she took up the position as a guide.

She took me to a system called Kansas. Apparently there is a faction called the Insurgency whose aim is to overthrow the "corrupt" Liberty government. I saw a lot of their patrols and even a base there. The system doesn't have any trade lanes, alas, not even neighboring Vespucci, but they appear to have a lot of assets stemming from several Liberty splinter factions that existed in the past. Without incident, we avoided the purple cloud and went straight to Vespucci.

When we arrived, there were even more Insurgency patrols. Luckily we didn't break any laws, so that's fine. To prevent any suspicion we avoided them and took the jump hole to our next destination: Inverness. Jaina said something about the Technocracy's relationship with the Auxo, but made no mention about the Auxo's alliance with the Vagrants. Fortunately, they didn't bother to notice me at all, and we made our way to Cortez.

We decided to return back to Liberty, and then to Bering. Apparently there were two separate wars that left a lot of junk floating around the system, and that Bristol is cleaning up the resulting mess. After that, I bid farewell to her and went back to Zeta. She seemed to be an honest woman in my opinion.

The mission was a success. Hopefully I'll plan on using my alter ego to gain much-needed knowledge of the Sirius sector.

Krumai here. Using my alter ego "Uzume", I found a group of freelance mercenries called the "Fae". I was in Shikoku when I happened to find one of them near the jumpgate leading to New Tokyo. It seems that they prefer the independent way of life as is usual with other freelancers. The Fae named Admete happily took me to Kyushu and then to Tau-29. On my way to Freeport 6 I met another Fae, named Eidothea.

While casually talking about the independent systems I've visited, Eidothea pointed to the pink nebula in Kansas. Apparently according to Eidothea, there is an "alien" jump gate, which may explain why Jaina's warnings were correct. Anyways, Eidothea revealed to me they sold a piece of equipment from a wrecked ship in a system called Omicron Psi. I figured out something: why would they venture into a system full of Nomads and come out unscathed?

I should probably investigate this further. Maybe I can find out the truth about their actions.

Third mission in a while. Met up with Manto once again, the one that brought me to the truth. To be precise, the engine I had on the drone was a very old one, prone to failure. My ship veered off course and unfortunately my ship got in the way of an ongoing battle between the Kusarian lawfuls and unlawfuls, which the lawfuls won.

I had a somewhat good conversation with a Naval officer, named Shishiro Misaro. He agreed to tow me back to Planet Kyushu, though his ship's towing cable wasn't that strong to pull a Freighter. Thankfully a Naval freighter capable of doing the task, the Itsumaden, towed me back to the nearby tradelane and went full-speed to Planet Kyushu. Because of the ship's relatively small size, replacement of the powercore was done in around five minutes after I disabled all the non-essential systems. Now that I have a new engine, I flew alongside Manto, making my way to a Kusari Battlecruiser in Tau-53 where my ship could stay.

The Faes were there during the towing, but thankfully they didn't suspect me. The Naval officers didn't know my true identity at all. I hope it stays that way.

Krumai here. Back for the longest time ever writing this journal up. I've heard about a being called the "Harbinger", who seems to direct both the mainshare and the lostshare into one path. However, I think looks can be deceiving enough. If I can recall, that was when me and my companion went to Baffin. To my surprise, the "Fae" mercenaries showed up and attacked us. Eventually I realized they were members of the lostshare and only stopped engaging when the Harbinger showed up. A distasteful thing because my companion somehow disappeared from my scanners. Fortunately, it spared me and my ship from the same fate.

My second encounter with the being was rather surprising. It appeared nearby the Iota jump gate in Omicron Zeta and had revealed a noble cause to reunite the two mindshares, but first it had to be faithfully tested. Finally, it figured out the reason of my companion's disappearance: there should be no conflict, since it only divides the two further. Whatever this test is, I presume there's not much to be said other than a test of faith.

Just now I had an encounter with a Lost One. They still harbored the hatred to the humans living in the Omicrons. But this was the first time I saw one deep into the Omicrons. Then the same Katherine Pennybrooke from months ago came here. I had a new companion, the Tarrasque, to discuss the matter further. The Lost One, upon hearing of our intentions to return back to the lostshare's path, soon departed. While the reunion was filled with brief satisfaction, it turned out Pennybrooke still clung to her human ways. I know, back from my days as a Chrysanthemum, that this was the root cause of all human conflict. The terrible truth is, humanity is a corruption that even the Lost Ones are susceptible of.

I'll conclude my journal for now on. Long live YámHa-stáHnam, the heritage of my ancestors!
