This will be a short communication signal serving as a notice. Previously mentioned Object Hypnos changed it's dislocation to an unknown position. We couldn't track it's movement outside of Alberta.
On the other note, we are starting the procedure of contacting the Great Duchy of Burgundy and we are planning to include you in our upcoming plans. We're still in the process of drawing up our plan of action but we are going to prioritize the possibility of acting as a platform for Enclave operations in the Duchy.

Commandant Julie Lapierre of the Enclave Defence Authority to Venator Onyx Statuette of the Tehnocracy of Auxo. Amiral de Lusignan allowed me to use this frequency for my request. Allow me to briefly get you up to speed. the following information is considered classified and should not be shared with anyone except high command ranking officers.
Battleship Embrun was a GRN Valor-type warship, lost in Newcastle in 742 AGS. Since then we heard no single word from the ship, but as well our scouts did not find a single piece of the wreck of the ship. The crew and the ship were considered MIA. We had a similar case with another Gallic warship - the Charente. For several weeks the ship was lost in the Omicrons and when she returned to Gallic space - the case of the alien infestation was confirmed. The ship was destroyed by the Enclave forces.
Presumably, the object Hypnos and battleship Embrun is the same thing, that was spotted in the system of Languedoc. We are concerned the warship's crew may be infested and therefore we are looking toward checking them for alien infestation. Allow me to say, if your kitty goes outside and plays in a sandbox, you will wash its paws after coming home regardless so that it does not bring worms. The same stuff is with aliens and their infestation. So, are you capable to provide such a check-up and if you can - how accurate it will be?
The Embrun was last seen in the Tau-117 sector, also known as the Drake system. Our vessels and observers last noted the presence of the Embrun right next to the Alien Gate anomaly, next to the infested forces. Naturally, we suspect them of being subservient. The Drake system has long then collapsed since the infested forced another sector jump. Although, scoutings reported a sudden appearance of alien activity in the Alberta Sector a few months ago. Hypnos may be our suspect's last location and all signs are pointing to it...
But to answer your query, we are fully capable of determing whether an individual is infested or not. It is a matter of whether you desire said individals to be preserved. The parasite will usually kill the host to prevent capture and eliminate trace. Truthfully, we have theories on how to 'disinfect' an individual - but we fear they may be long lost due to biological morphing for their 'new pilot' - We haven't had any opportunity to reverse the neurological changes of any infectee yet, but we would be eager to try such with our nano AI technology.
If you wish to capture them, play dumb and assume the worst - assume they are hostile, always keep a weapon trained on them. They will take any opportunity, any lie, any trick, any reasoning - emotional or logical - to deceive you. They are infected, they are effectively dead. Keep it in mind, do not let any personnel near them.
If they have converted interior parts of the ship, it may be worth preserving some of the components for research. If you manage to capture a live, 'infested' specimen of a vessel, it may be worth keeping it in mind. You never know when you'll need an edge in the fight. Of course, it is up to you if you wish to restore the vessel to its original state, should you be able to capture it.
All in all, I personally advise you simply eliminate all of the crew for ultimate safety, you cannot have a risk like such in a time of war. Utilising neuro-gas may be effective for initial sterilization of the Valor.

Such news about the Embrun is raising concerns. We did not find any information about the system of Tau-117, also known as Drake, in our archives. If your information is complete we can have no doubts the Embrun's crew was and remain infested by alien drones or whatever you call them. The Enclave cannot allow this ship to be destroyed and therefore a cleansing is required. However, despite all the dangers, we are interested in performing research efforts on infested humans. I do believe the Auxo may be interested in such as well. Therefore, we are interested in assisting you in field tests of disinfection with the help of your nano AI technology
On a side note, we've spotted Order vessels sneaking in the vicinity of our defence perimeter. It seems like they are interested to put their nose where they are not welcomed.
It does not come to me as a surprise that the Order are incapable with restraining themselves when it comes to their arrogance. They are known to act without much forethought and utter disregard for other organisations authority. It is likely within their interests to destroy it.
Originally, our organisations were perhaps once destined to collaborate against the Core threat, but that changed quickly when their 'Grand Admiral' backstabbed us, blinded by his inflated ego. And they turned our previous Crayter, but dumb, allies against us in favour of their insane genocidal agendas. They have worked together with the Crayter forces to flush out the Tau-117 system and have forced the sector to jump. Instead of finishing the job, they idiotically allowed them to escape by distracting themselves with their usual 'blah blah - left behind, for humanity' nonsense, instead of focusing on a strategic target. Take heed, do not allow them to blind you with these ideals of 'Human' pride.
Make of these data images as you will, we have the visuals of the Embrun in these recon images. And yes, the Order is utilising a Bretonian Dreadnought. How they got it: I don't know, it wouldn't surprise us if they were dabbling with Bretonian Intelligence, considering they are good friends with both Crayter, and seemingly made some talks with the SIS. I don't particularly care how they obtained it at this moment of time.
All I can advise is to be weary of them and watch for their deception. Do not worry, we will try keep our conflict with the Order and the Core away from Enclave space, but some of our kind might take an offense to keep them unharmed, considering they're very much interested in genociding us.
Keep an eye on the Embrun, they might decide to burn it and waste this chance to study them. If they try to destroy one of the few rare opportunities to learn against our alien opponents, feel free to call us for assistance. We will gladly jump some vessels to deploy drones to remove them.
News of your return to your home has been reached. On the behalf of the Directorate, we would like to congratulate you on your success.
Despite the good news, there are still some uncertainties. We would like to inquire what will become of our future relations, including potential trade arrangements?

Hello, Keeper.
Admiral is currently occupied with an important meeting. I was appointed to answer this message.
Your knowledge is correct, the Gallic Royal Enclave was merged into the Confederacy and altogether we are reforming the Gallic state into something new, unseen before. The Authority, however, is no more. Majority of our officers became the members of the Gallic Navy, with small part forming a new intelligence agency. The Security Bureau shall operate under command of Admiral de Lusignan and our intentions thoughout that period have no changed. Maintaining positive relations with the Technocracy is still regarded as the most favourable outcome.
