Good Day, Colonel Jonathan Beam, I have recently been deployed within the Ellesmere System. Orders that came from Captain Renee Callen herself, I now find myself stationed at Grise Fjord Shipyard, whilst a routine check of my ship is being initiated. I believe it will be outfitted with a new Gun Cam, along with an Audio Device much superior to the one I have at present.

My recent reports will be uploaded to the Database here at the Shipyard and stored within a Restricted Area. Although I am told that I will be able to access these files at my own convenience, It seems things are rather out of place, Strange things are happening Colonel, some of the personnel here are acting out of nature so to speak.

Nevertheless I will now be monitoring Long Range Scans from the Ellesmere System, I am told they reach as far as Omicron Delta, So I will hopefully come across something interesting.

The reason I am contacting you today, is simply to ask for permission to use a temporary ship available within Grise Fjord Shipyard. It is my hope that I may use such a ship to conduct routine patrols from Alaska to Omicron Minor, not only that, but I refute the idea of being stuck on this Shipyard whilst maintenance checks are being initiated on my primary vessel.

I would of taken this directly to Captain Renee Callen, However given her current circumstance, I find myself unable to contact her.

Agent Knowles,

The Liberty Security Force did not spend a fortune of tax payers money on your training, so that you could merely sit in front of a screen all day. Something you need to understand is that the agency always has a plan for you. Something else you need to understand is that I am a busy man and should not be bothered for anything less that a crisis.

Your primary ship is currently being outfitted for operations you don't need to know about, not yet anyway. For the moment you will be assigned to a temporary ship outfitted with advanced scanning technology. We have picked up some unusual signals that we believe are cause for concern. These signals appear to be originating from the Omicron Minor system. Your job is to find out whats causing theses signals, you can begin by running a diagnostic on the various Toledo wrecks. Report back any findings you may uncover.

Finally, Agent Knowles, don't let Grise Fjord scare you. We are on the cutting edge of technological advancement, if the activities of Grise Fjord -don't- scare you, then we have a problem. I do hope the next time your name comes across my desk is related to something important.

You have your orders. Get it done.

Beam out.

Colonel, I feel the need to tell you this immediately, My work in Toledo is still undergoing analysis, I have many things to report, my findings in the Omicron Minor System are strange and I have a lot of evidence of what is causing these energy signatures to conspire against our long range scans.

I have been working off assignment, and balancing between both goals are proving to be more and more stressful each day. Although I do not wish to reveal all of what is happening currently, I will tell you that I have been in communication with the Lane Hackers and a particular Outcast. I feel my time is limited. This network will be secure for a brief time, so I urge you to erase this message once you have uploaded it to your database, in the hope that the Lane Hackers don't retrieve it.

Your trust is essential here Colonel, I sincerely believe I am on to something big here.

I will contact you at my earliest convenience, providing you with an update of my current circumstance and the work I have been able to do. This is a dangerous task Colonel, I hope I do not have to stress the extreme lengths I am going to, to keep my identity secret from the Lane Hackers.

Agent Knowles,

I was wondering whether or not to have your name added to a hit-list when I got report of your "encrypted transmissions" to the 101st and the Hackers under the name of "Bishop", although I doubted you were stupid enough to actually try and defect while still using a ship provided by the Agency, we train you better than that. So I waited, seems to have paid off.

Either way, I understand the situation you are in with your limited amount of time, I'm authorizing this operation under Covert Ops emergency operation protocol at the moment, a data file has been attached with required data and info on multiple alias' that have been "legitimized" within the Neural Net that you may use if required. I however will require you to report in every 10 days using any means necessary to contact the Agency. And you will provide myself with details of your "plan" as soon as possible.

You've also been promoted to Sergeant, I don't think I have to reiterate that you're hanging on a very thin thread, Knowles. Your loyalty will be tested and for your sake, I hope I don't find it lacking. Good hunting.

Beam out.

Colonel, I have managed to reach a secure location for a brief time, forgive me for not contacting you earlier, I have been busy on assignment. I can now confirm that The Lane Hackers are corresponding with me and will supply me with whatever I need. In return I must do something for them, although they have not been in contact with me for a while, I am confident they will be soon.

I am told that whatever it is they want me to do may have some impact on the Liberty Security Force. I can only guess that they will be after a set of classified files that may work within there favour in exposing the Liberty Security Force's classified assignments and research. I will update you once I have confirmed my suspicions.

My ship has been neutralised of all tracking devices and audio trackers, The Lane Hackers are clever and are not to be under estimated, It seems they have a lack of faith in me for now, hopefully that will be rendered as soon as I have completed the tasks they have set before me. I am currently awaiting contact from Nicole Hunter, so that she may provide me with said tasks.

I have yet again had some contact with Itziar Leiseka, an Outcast of The Ghosts Of Radgriz group, She is interested in obtaining Liquid Cardamine and wishes to use me to acquire some samples of it. I have offered my services to her as a means to learn more about her research and so that she may assist me in a delicate matter later on.

A loud thud as if a door had been knocked on is heard within the background.

I'm sorry Colonel I must go for now, I'll be in contact with you again at my earliest convenience.

Colonel, The Lane Hackers have finally contacted me in regards to a new assignment. It is troubling me, Nicole Hunter herself has requested that I deliver basic layout schematics of Eureka Research Station. I assumed all the rumours were farfetched about such a facility existing, I have never had direct contact with such a facility either. So it poses the question does Eureka Research Station exist? I have had my suspicions in the past, but nothing that would trouble me throughout the duration of my service within the Liberty Security Force.

If it does exist, how does Nicole Hunter know of it, perhaps we have a security risk within the Liberty Security Force. Nicole also wanted a list of current high priority projects conducted at Eureka Research Station, suggesting she may have some interest in upcoming projects based there.

I'm uploading the decrypted message to your database now.

Decrypted Message

Faint voices are heard within the background, slowly but surely becoming louder on approach.

It seems I am running out of time Colonel, I managed to base myself in a discreet location in the hope that I may avoid prying eyes... I must go....

Contact me at your earliest convenience.

Agent Knowles, the priority and assessment of your assignment has changed, you will be reporting to me.

The existence of Eureka is, at best, a rumor within the Agency. I'd like to know exactly how Nicole Hunter even implies its existence. When reporting back to her, just tell her the truth, you don't know if it actually exists, neither do any of your would-be contacts.

And find a way to find out how she knows, this assignment overwrites your previous covert op for the time being. Get to it Agent Knowles.
