Esteemed Executor,

With great sadness I must inform You and rest of High Command, that our outpost has been discovered. Earlier today our scanners picked up a ship which failed to broadcast the clearance codes upon approach. It lingered for a little while and then left our scanner range.

Due to turbulent and violent nature of the Knossos Atmosphere we were unable to ascertain the IFF of the vessel, only that it was of human construction. That said, given our location the list of suspects is rather limited to Core and Outcasts, with a small chance of it being a Rheinwehr or an overly curious Freelancer.

I thereby request increased provision of the following materials in case of enemy attacks:

Code:
Food Rations,

Oxygen,

Water,

Reinforced Alloys,

Robotic Hardware,

Hull Segments,

H-Fuel and/or MOX

That said, the Outpost should be able to withstand any short-term sieges by small to moderate forces given our armaments of 3 weapon platforms, shield generator and fully reinforced bulkheads. We're ready for any further developments, and our Xeno Relic mining operation continues as per usual.

In Your Service,
Administrator Achates Galatas

Administrator Achates Galatas,

You've done well to report this critical information to me. It's safe to assume that it was a ship of our enemies, and I don't like to leave anything to chances.

While I would prefer a non-violent and more elegant solution to our competitors, I've taken additional precautions to ensure the safety of our people. Rest assured, if we are attacked - every man and woman active in the Deterrence or even fresh recruits fit for duty will come to aid.

If it does come to conflict - we are going to fight them with all our strength and we won't rest until we have secured the safety our station and destroyed every single one of them. This will be defined as our most important battle so far. One that will lead to our victory, or a new path and prioritization. Remember our pillars - dedication and tenacity, Ravenna Vult!

While we believe in co-operation and negotiation - no nation will prevent our self-determination, our future and the survival of our people as long as I stand.

If you detect any hostiles, notify me immediately. I want to make sure we can evacuate all non-combatants and civilians. Prepare plans for emergency exodus so that we can minimize any collateral damage to non-military personnel.

Additional provisions have been sent to you and more information will be provided via a secured transmission to follow.

Having said that, when one door closes, another opens. It's safe to say that the location of our operation is now public knowledge. I hereby, give you permission to formally extend new business opportunities to our partners.

DTR - Today, Tomorrow, Forever!

Regards,
Executor Ravenna Nagash
