Due to recent events involving increased Nomad activity throughout the Sirius sector, the personnel of the Hades Brigade have been dispatched to investigate and study the unknown threat and establish the true causes of what is happening.
I hasten to report that the conduct of research and combat operations did not go without complications and incidents. I am sending you a full document of all information about our mission from December 9 to 15 of this year.
The information from the log was transmitted in full to the Eclipse Vanguard command and is currently in storage. Files entered into the document will be updated by the end of this month. The basic information regarding the artifact remains current and unchanged.
I have every reason to believe that the current knowledge of our crew and the equipment we use is insufficient to be effective in xeno-artefact research. In order to gain additional experience and skills, I would like to nominate a candidate in the person of Jinna Leons and Sam Chages. I am requesting their enrollment in an individualized study group for advanced scholarly training in xeno-archaeology and biology.
