Lord Commander,

It's been some time, eh?

One of the top agents of the Octavarium Intelligence Commission was operating in Maltese space -- hey now, don't delete this email just yet -- and they got wind of an interesting little shindig going down in high orbit of Malta between a Kusari destroyer running some kind of nomad-derived technology and with a scrambled IFF, a National Council vessel, and a Battlegroup Harmony vessel.

Still there? Awesome.

You probably want proof of this, so, no questions asked, here you go.

I miss the good old days, when shit was simpler, the Front was around, and the worst our three factions had to deal with was the Lane Hackers.

Regards,
Taskmaster Harold Kane
Fourth Octavarium Fleet
