As you probably might be aware, Wisp has funded a startup project on Cambridge Research Station called Kellis Biotech. They manufacture, amongst other medical equipment, Med-Stasis Bands.
Until the 31st of January all Med-Stasis Bands shipments to the following locations will receive $1000 per unit bonus.
Sender: Simon White, Wisp Innovations Recipient: Wisp Innovations Communication Centre Subject: Med-Statis Bands Delivery
Greetings,
Today I took a party of Med-Statis Bands to Crete. Everything went as planned, I didn't contact any hostiles on the way. I plan to spend the next few hours on Crete, then I will be on my way home.
Sender: Simon White, Wisp Innovations Recipient: Wisp Innovations Communication Centre Subject: Med-Statis Bands Delivery
Hello,
I delivered another party of Med-Statis Bands.The route through Omegas is clear or only Corsairs are inbound. They paid me with artifacts again, and I am not really comfortable with them on hold. If this happens next time, I won't visit Gamma again.

Sender: Johnatan Clark, Wisp Innovations Recipient: Wisp Innovations Communication Centre Subject: Introduction
Hmm, well I was never good with introductions let alone official ones so I'll try being as casual as possible. Good day employees of Wisp Innovations, my name is Johnatan Clark. I am a graduate of the Cambridge medical institute. I am also an ex military medic. And now I will be acting as the new CEO of this institution of ours. There are many ideas to help the rise of our company, and I will try my best to work for the good of it. I hope we can get along and realize those ideas together.
So during my rather normal patrol across the Taus I stopped by Singapore Shipyard and to my surprise the station was servicing a Liberty dreadnought Cincinnati, accompanied by a Corvo. I didn't go particularly in-depth on what it was doing here, but from what I grabbed they were a part of some research group that fights Nomads. How a research group acquired a battleship is beyond me, though. The captain also showed surprising knowledge of the Rogues' and Outcasts' relationships. There also was a Zoner there from a group calling themselves Pravda, with very similar goals.
You can find the conversation logs attached to check the conversation fully. I expect them to be interested in a contact with us soon.

[15.01.2016 21:49:20] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Good evening.
[15.01.2016 21:49:33] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Well, this is a bit of an unusual sight.
[15.01.2016 21:50:03] The.Artemis: ?: PEOPLE!!!!!
[15.01.2016 21:50:05] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Yes. I'm sure it is, Piilot.
[15.01.2016 21:50:32] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: I wasn't aware that the IMG are servicing Liberty warships here.
[15.01.2016 21:50:42] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Have the Navy devised a cunning plan to backstab the Gallic or what>?
[15.01.2016 21:51:06] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Well. It's not something that anybody should be knowing about.
[15.01.2016 21:51:23] The.Cincinnati: Mav: We were given permission to be serviced here by the IMG themselves.
[15.01.2016 21:51:32] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Secure line and all.
[15.01.2016 21:51:41] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Hm...
[15.01.2016 21:51:57] The.Cincinnati: Mav: What brings you out here pilot?
[15.01.2016 21:52:03] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: My work.
[15.01.2016 21:52:12] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Do tell.
[15.01.2016 21:52:34] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Wisp Innovations Security Division, to make a long story short, we kill Outcasts.
[15.01.2016 21:52:56] The.Cincinnati: Mav: That's a long story short alright. What is Wisp?
[15.01.2016 21:53:05] The.Artemis: ?: id say
[15.01.2016 21:53:11] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: We are a subsidiary of Cryer.
[15.01.2016 21:53:30] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Specializing in research, logistics and exterminating Cardamine presence throughout Sirius.
[15.01.2016 21:54:01] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Hmm. That's quite some specialty. I bet you're out for rogues too.
[15.01.2016 21:54:22] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Yes, although you don't see them quite as often out here in the Taus.
[15.01.2016 21:54:33] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Over in Liberty though, yes, if they are a threat.
[15.01.2016 21:54:41] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Oh so you're Tau based?
[15.01.2016 21:54:53] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Sorry for interrupting your talk, but I'm glad to hear that someone is doing roughly the same thing as we.
[15.01.2016 21:55:01] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: We have security squadrons in key points of Sirius.
[15.01.2016 21:55:05] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: In the Taus, Sigmas and Liberty.
[15.01.2016 21:55:25] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: As the northern Sirius is the main artery through which the orange menace flows, and Liberty is its most common-
[15.01.2016 21:55:27] [W]-Albedo.1: -destination.
[15.01.2016 21:56:06] The.Cincinnati: Mav: I'd venture a guess as such, Pilot. we used to get Malta capitals through Liberty some time ago.
[15.01.2016 21:56:17] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Strangest thing, some rogues put an end to that.
[15.01.2016 21:56:27] The.Cincinnati: Mav: It was an un-easy alliance but it had to be done.
[15.01.2016 21:56:35] The.Artemis: ?: a pain they were.
[15.01.2016 21:56:41] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: I beg to differ, as I personally witnessed several Maltese capital ships in Liberty not that long ago.
[15.01.2016 21:56:51] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: And I only saw Rogues assisting them.
[15.01.2016 21:57:14] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Must be the new Generation of Rogues who don't know any better.
[15.01.2016 21:57:36] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: I wouldn't really understand Rogues shooting Outcast capital ships in Liberty though.
[15.01.2016 21:57:39] The.Cincinnati: Mav: I see you pilots out there. Pravada ships.
[15.01.2016 21:57:43] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: That makes absolutely no sense.
[15.01.2016 21:57:56] The.Cincinnati: Mav: I would. When you hear the explanation, You'd understand.
[15.01.2016 21:58:11] The.Artemis: ?: from what i heard the rogues dont mind them being there, just dont bring their caps in their turf
[15.01.2016 21:58:29] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Greetings here to brave pilots who is also fighting the orange poison.
[15.01.2016 21:58:40] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Well, I'm used to the entirety of Sirius being completely unreasonable.
[15.01.2016 21:58:53] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Dragons, GRN and Mollys are the finest examples I've seen.
[15.01.2016 21:58:57] The.Cincinnati: Mav: That's about the Sum of it. Rogues have an agreement to allow Cardimine into Liberty. However the rogues didn't
[15.01.2016 21:59:13] The.Cincinnati: agree to the Maltese bringing warships within their zone.
[15.01.2016 21:59:54] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Orange heavens is what they call it.
[15.01.2016 22:00:03] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Makes me curious why a Navy captain is so well informed.
[15.01.2016 22:00:23] The.Cincinnati: Mav: However we're here for repairs so we can fight a battle larger than the Cardamine itself.
[15.01.2016 22:00:28] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Aliens' hook, that's how we call it in Pravda.
[15.01.2016 22:01:08] The.Cincinnati: Mav: We're informed because we sat down and talked with a rogue about why they were against the Outcast ships.
[15.01.2016 22:01:16] The.Cincinnati: Mav: His ship callsign was Texas.Red.
[15.01.2016 22:01:36] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: *shakes her head* That looks like outright not doing your job properly.
[15.01.2016 22:02:13] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Well. We weren't going to waste resources to shoot a bomber. We're not only informed, but logical, Pilot.
[15.01.2016 22:02:45] The.Artemis: ?: yeah. bomber vs dread. good luck
[15.01.2016 22:02:55] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: *smirks* Flying a battleship without cover. I wouldn't call that logical, really.
[15.01.2016 22:03:10] The.Artemis: ?: thats how liberty was. thats one reason why we left
[15.01.2016 22:03:27] The.Cincinnati: Mav: We can't service a ship while in cloak procedure.
[15.01.2016 22:03:34] The.Artemis: ?: no back up, betrayal, ect.
[15.01.2016 22:03:35] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Seems logical enough.
[15.01.2016 22:03:59] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: To be honest, even a carrier can be used without cover, only with it's own squadron. But one must be an ace to do so.
[15.01.2016 22:04:48] The.Artemis: ?: ive seen this Texas.Red take on 2 OC caps. and won
[15.01.2016 22:04:56] The.Cincinnati: Mav: It was just one bomber. We could have killed him. He could have killed us. We called it "Neutral talk".
[15.01.2016 22:05:02] The.Artemis: ?: by himself
[15.01.2016 22:05:05] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Yeah, he was quite the pilot.
[15.01.2016 22:05:36] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Hm.
[15.01.2016 22:06:39] The.Cincinnati: Mav: One thing sets us apart from the Maltese. We weren't high on the orange.
[15.01.2016 22:07:02] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Maybe it's the reason why he was able to take on both those ships.
[15.01.2016 22:07:17] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Mr. Mav, I wish to ask you, where and how overtly do you fight Outcasts and Nomads, and if we can help somehow.
[15.01.2016 22:07:58] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: We at Pravda have a battlegroup in lower Omegas and Omicrons. We often put stop to Nomad incursions and Cardaminde-
[15.01.2016 22:08:01] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: *raises an eyebrow* From what I can understand, there are quite a few groups that we encountered that particularly-
[15.01.2016 22:08:03] [W]-Albedo.1: -dislike Outcasts.
[15.01.2016 22:08:10] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Yet they all are separated.
[15.01.2016 22:08:11] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: -smuggling.
[15.01.2016 22:08:25] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Well, Covertly, I can't tell you anything about the group The Artemis and I work for except that we're a research group.
[15.01.2016 22:08:36] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: We are working on uniting them. Just for your information.
[15.01.2016 22:08:47] The.Artemis: ?: uniting who?
[15.01.2016 22:08:52] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: A-ha.
[15.01.2016 22:09:13] The.Cincinnati: Mav: But we have a little beef with the nomads and anyone who sees Nomads as an ally.
[15.01.2016 22:09:32] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: All groups who fight Nomads and Orange Hook, from Order to IMG.
[15.01.2016 22:09:57] The.Artemis: ?: ah. would be smart. since the nomads want to just kill us all.
[15.01.2016 22:10:10] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Everyone except the Outcasts and Commune.
[15.01.2016 22:10:15] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: As you probably know, IMG is building a rehabilitation center for Cardamine addicts.
[15.01.2016 22:10:30] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Is that so? I know it now.
[15.01.2016 22:10:30] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: We are humbly assisting with it, yes.
[15.01.2016 22:10:56] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Exactly. I bet that Nomands treat Sirius as "their own space", and think about humanity as "intruders".
[15.01.2016 22:11:13] The.Cincinnati: Mav: I hate to cut you gents short. I'll leave you to talk to the captain of the Artemis. I have business to attend to below-
[15.01.2016 22:11:15] The.Cincinnati: deck.
[15.01.2016 22:11:46] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: At least, that's what I understood from frequent encounters from them. However, it seems to be just an excuse-
[15.01.2016 22:11:56] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: -to their predatory instincts.
[15.01.2016 22:12:10] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Nomads wouldn't be that big of a problem if it weren't for all those sick people that think they are some kind of-
[15.01.2016 22:12:13] [W]-Albedo.1: -saviours or whatever.
[15.01.2016 22:12:45] The.Artemis: ?: i would have to agree. its a pain.
[15.01.2016 22:12:59] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Jellies were always telltaling something about "bringing light" to the "darkness"... until we fed them with Mortars.
[15.01.2016 22:13:15] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: I couldn't argue that Mortars are pretty bright things.
[15.01.2016 22:13:27] The.Artemis: ?: *laughs*
[15.01.2016 22:13:51] The.Cincinnati: *Maverick comes rushing up from the deck*
[15.01.2016 22:13:53] The.Artemis: ?: razors are kind of bright too. i helped kill a big one in new london
[15.01.2016 22:13:58] The.Cincinnati: Mav: WHO FIRED THAT?!
[15.01.2016 22:14:03] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Me too.
[15.01.2016 22:14:22] The.Cincinnati: *crew member speaks up and explains to the captain*
[15.01.2016 22:14:30] The.Cincinnati: Mav: Keep the damn cap on it!
[15.01.2016 22:14:43] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: If you remember a Zoner Carrier with callsign Pravda|TARKR-Kuznetsov...
[15.01.2016 22:14:45] The.Cincinnati: *Maverick walks back off deck*
[15.01.2016 22:15:24] The.Artemis: ?: name sounds familiar
[15.01.2016 22:15:28] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: I was in command of that carrier when Nomads attacked New London. My Mortars helped to rip off more than-
[15.01.2016 22:15:54] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: -half of the "hull" of their huge ship... how it is... "Ishtar" or something like that.
[15.01.2016 22:16:17] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: I don't recall that, though that situation was such a mess that it was difficult to discern people.
[15.01.2016 22:16:21] The.Artemis: ?: yeah. i got the final shots off on it *laughs*
[15.01.2016 22:16:27] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: And I was also being distracted by some Hackers and Mollies.
[15.01.2016 22:16:51] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: I'm glad to see a man with which I fought side-by-side.
[15.01.2016 22:17:04] The.Artemis: ?: aye. me too.
[15.01.2016 22:17:13] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Er... Woman.
[15.01.2016 22:17:29] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Not like it matters much.
[15.01.2016 22:17:51] The.Cincinnati: Sylus: His name is Ivan. Most call him Monty.
[15.01.2016 22:18:21] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Ivan? Hmm. From where he is?
[15.01.2016 22:18:43] The.Cincinnati: Sylus: No clue. He doesn't remember much.
[15.01.2016 22:18:44] The.Artemis: Monty: dont know.
[15.01.2016 22:18:58] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Name sounds a bit like Coalition.
[15.01.2016 22:19:01] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Ivan sounds very familiar.
[15.01.2016 22:19:26] The.Cincinnati: Sylus: *chuckles* Don't get it twisted now.
[15.01.2016 22:19:32] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Yes, it is. Just like Andrey Gumilev... but hey, leave those drunken bears in their Omegas.
[15.01.2016 22:19:35] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Old Nick, our head of research, is also from those parts.
[15.01.2016 22:20:03] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: They are not real communists, they just worship red flags and vodka.
[15.01.2016 22:20:17] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Communism is overrated.
[15.01.2016 22:20:25] The.Artemis: Monty: i like vodka...
[15.01.2016 22:20:35] The.Cincinnati: Sylus: Do you like red flags?
[15.01.2016 22:20:39] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Survival of the fittest is the only law that applies in the end.
[15.01.2016 22:20:47] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Bratishka... (Automatic translation: "Bro").
[15.01.2016 22:20:49] The.Artemis: Monty: dont care for any flag. just fabric
[15.01.2016 22:21:05] The.Cincinnati: Sylus: Well. That's.... Generic.
[15.01.2016 22:21:05] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Yep.
[15.01.2016 22:21:27] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Do you know how to distinguish a real communist?
[15.01.2016 22:21:39] The.Artemis: Monty: i dont, no.
[15.01.2016 22:21:59] The.Artemis: Monty: im just a pawn who does what he is told *Laughs*
[15.01.2016 22:22:27] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Real communist thinks about humanity first, ensures it's safety second, and only in third turn he thinks about-
[15.01.2016 22:22:38] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: -spreading socialism or making a revolution.
[15.01.2016 22:23:08] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: We're getting dangerously close to politics here.
[15.01.2016 22:23:41] The.Artemis: Monty: yeah. i try to listen and remember stuff like this but it ends up flying off into the distance.
[15.01.2016 22:23:44] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: *stretches and yawns* Well. That's a good sign to start heading home.
[15.01.2016 22:23:53] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Back to business, do Outcasts interrupt your convoys to Falkland?
[15.01.2016 22:23:54] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: It was nice meeting you, gentlemen.
[15.01.2016 22:24:07] The.Cincinnati: Sylus: Agreed. You take care, Cryer.
[15.01.2016 22:24:14] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Ours? No. Not that I heard anyway.
[15.01.2016 22:24:31] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: I won't believe that Cryer is not involved into project New Life.
[15.01.2016 22:24:34] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Even if they did, they would have a slight surprise, as on Falkland we currently station four fighters, two bombers and-
[15.01.2016 22:24:40] [W]-Albedo.1: -a gunboat.
[15.01.2016 22:24:56] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Anyway.
[15.01.2016 22:24:58] [W]-Albedo.1: Jera: Farewell.
[15.01.2016 22:25:04] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Well, if you get into a trouble, send a message to any Pravda vessel. We have a carrier here.
[15.01.2016 22:25:09] Pravda|Energiya[1TW]: Gumilev: Farewell then.
The Virgil bacteria have been successfully delivered to Atka Research Station this afternoon and are ready to be unloaded. You can find the cargo manifests attached.
Sender: Jera, Wisp Innovations Recipient: Wisp Innovations Communications Centre Subject: Encounters at Tomioka
It appears that the Dragons are attempting to gain solid foothold in the Nagano system. Earlier today they assaulted Planet Tomioka, with the support of several Golden Chrysanthemums. We managed to dispatch two of them, while I chased the third all the way to Omicron Alpha - it was kind enough to guide me almost under Malta Docking Ring.
After I came back to the brawl, the BD forces had become considerably stronger and after a while all of our ships were destroyed. Fortunately all the escape pods were intact and we managed to reach Falkland safely.

Sender: Jera, Wisp Innovations Recipient: Wisp Innovations Communications Centre Subject: Liberty evening.
I spent the last couple of days in Liberty. Through some roundabout means I managed to get some information on a Hellfire Legion base in California and to verify it I made my way over there. At the base I met Dr. Thorn, the same that requested the medical equipment from us and Kellis, as well as a Hellfire Legion battlecruiser and a Sisters of Light Chrysanthemum ship. The GC wasn't carrying any Cardamine so it wouldn't be wise to attack it there.
The only meaningful thing to come out of this encounter is that the Legion might be interested in acquiring some Stabiline and other medicals. I told the man to contact our Logistics should they be interested.
Later I waited for Dr. Thorn and escorted her to Bretonia. She seems to be a trustworthy person that could perhaps help us on Vergil - but that I'll leave for Nick to assess as it's his pet project. She'd have my reccommendation though.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: *raises an eyebrow* A lost miner? Heh..
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Also.. afternoon, Cryer. I see you on radar there.
Dr.Thorn: *looks at her console, and nods slowly* Intruiging.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Feel free to approach.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Eh.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: EH.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: *coughs*
\W/~Minami.Mi.: I remember this transponder...
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hokkaido, a few months ago...
[W]-''Jera".: Good that you do.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Some history there?
Murks: where is erie
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Fly to the big desert planet over there.
[W]-''Jera".: But you're going to excuse me for not wanting to talk to terrorists.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Lane to New York, jump.
[W]-''Jera".: Anyway, greetings.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Lane to Westpoint, and then Pennsylvania.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hm. Sure. Sure.
Dr.Thorn: This is a strange place for a Cryer vessel... *looks at her curiously*
Murks: ok
Murks: bye
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Even though I am here as guest and not as...how you call it 'terrorist in duty' or so.
[W]-''Jera".: I show up all around strange places.
[W]-''Jera".: Yes, this is exactly why you aren't getting shot yet.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: How lovely.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Nobody is shooting at anyone.
[W]-''Jera".: *looks at the Bounty Hunter rookies around*
[W]-''Jera".: Really.
Dr.Thorn: *leans her chair back, puts her feet up and closes her eyes, listening*
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Nobody worth mention is shooting at anyone. Better?
[W]-''Jera".: Well.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Let the poor rookies their training..
\W/~Minami.Mi.: So yes.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Whatever.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: What brings you here, Jera?
[W]-''Jera".: Eh. A Xeno on Ouray lost a card game.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: *Locklear raises an eyebrow*
[W]-''Jera".: Had no money left to bet, decided to bet the location of your little base here, as he had apparently been here before.
[W]-''Jera".: I /may/ have overheard.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Could've just asked. The Legion has always accepted Liberty's corporations with open arms.
[W]-''Jera".: Wisp is not precisely a Liberty corporation.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Though, Cryer operates mostly in the borderworlds.
[W]-''Jera".: We have fingers in many pies and pay taxes almost everywhere, but our headquarters is in the Sigmas.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Fair.
Dr.Thorn: Ah, Wisp. *smiles slightly* Sometimes, the best way to learn things is throwing the 'house shackles off'...
Dr.Thorn: sp to, ur, speak.
[W]-''Jera".: Politics gets in the way of many things that it should not be concerned with.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: That is most certainly a true thing.
Dr.Thorn: *nods slowly in agreement*
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Speaking of.. we had some relations going with Cryer Solutions, but they've been rather silent of late.
[W]-''Jera".: We aren't... uh... in close relations.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I'd been meaning to contact Wisp to see if you would be interested in picking up the pieces.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hm.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I know, corporate rivalry and all.
[W]-''Jera".: Depends on the pieces.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: The Commonwealth is very interested in Stabiline.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: *raises an eyebrow* Huh..
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: And you'd have a fair market for Synth Weed among Legionnaires as well, I believe.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: We also have an entire planet of undocumented species, both plant and animal life.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I don't believe any scientist in their right mind could pass up the opportunity to study that.
[W]-''Jera".: I'm no scientist, though.
Dr.Thorn: *raises an eyebrow*
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I didn't mean you personally.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: A mercenary fits better.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Right?
[W]-''Jera".: And our research teams are currently occupied by a more... important matters, so to speak.
CONSOLE: no, it's so minor it doesn't need any log. It's just some refactoring for better perfs.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Ech, aliens. Aliens again.
[W]-''Jera".: *shakes head* Not really.
[W]-''Jera".: Even though the details aren't open to the public, it doesn't involve aliens.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Well if it's not aliens, what the hell else?
Dr.Thorn: *scratches her head*... Sigma's is more interesting for much /smaller/ concerns, no? *opens her eyes*
\W/~Minami.Mi.: A new drug eh?
[W]-''Jera".: Possibly.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Oh.
Dr.Thorn: *smiles, then leans back and closes her eyes again*
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Keep that stuff away from me then. Thanks. I even denied Cardamine. So I have no use for a synthetic drug.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: None the less, I'd ask that you relay my offer to your superiors.
[W]-''Jera".: I will look into that.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I wouldn't even be adverse to you setting up a research base within Commonwealth space.
[W]-''Jera".: *shakes her head* Maintaining more than one installation is currently beyond our capabilities.
[W]-''Jera".: And Atka is enough of a hassle as it is.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I see..
[W]-''Jera".: Considering all the Outcasts and... other terrorists in the Sigmas.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Like...Corsairs? Or...mhm...
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hogosha?
Dr.Thorn: *grins* It's a busy part of space... surprised some strings weren't pulled to get some more house-funded protection, no?
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I think the idea is to keep prying House eyes away..
[W]-''Jera".: I'm afraid I can't precisely reveal that information. But I meant neither Corsairs nor Hogosha.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: I know exactly who you meant.
Dr.Thorn: *grins slightly, putting her feet up again*
[W]-''Jera".: Of course you do.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: *coughs* Well, what the other Sisterhood does isn't to 100% my Sisters concern.
[W]-''Jera".: I believe the other Sisterhood is currently in the process of being shot to pieces by our forces in Kusari.
[W]-''Jera".: Their crimes have been far greater than yours are, currently.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: *chuckles* True. I must admit this.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: And then they manage to become weak from the inside..
[W]-''Jera".: Great enough to warrant a Sirius-wide KOS status in fact. But that's beside the point.
Dr.Thorn: hmm... *shrugs* didn't know that.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: *yawns* The Sisterhood of Light exists longer then they do. And will keep existing even when they fall apart.
[W]-''Jera".: And will continue to spread Cardamine throughout Kusari and Liberty, of course.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Oh? Didn't you know that Cardamine and the Outcasts aren't what -we- see as the strongest ally?
[W]-''Jera".: That's irrelevant.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hmh. For sure the majority of the movement somehow has ties to the Nacion Maltese. No way one could deny it.
[W]-''Jera".: *shakes her head* Please.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Everyone, has more or less.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Less in my case.
[W]-''Jera".: I'm not being paid for looking into motifs of every single GC.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: For sure not.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: You are being paid for shooting down any under Chrysanthemums colour. Even the civilians that life inside our movement.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: But I will not judge you for it.
[W]-''Jera".: Not precisely.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: You need to survive somehow like everyone.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: So yeah.
Dr.Thorn: *raises an eyebrow, frowning slightly*
[W]-''Jera".: And it's that transponder again.
[W]-''Jera".: Again in rather interesting circumstances.
Dr.Thorn: *nods her head slightly*Raven.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hm. I remember it from somewhere...
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hokkaido, the Nomad issue..
A/)-Sapphire.Raven:: *gives a slight wave to Thallia*
\W/~Minami.Mi.: One of them who was there back then? Whatever, one of them who helped us in Hokkaido. So doesn't matter for me.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Kon'nichiwa....though.
A/)-Sapphire.Raven:: Hm.
Dr.Thorn: It's quite the gath...ga...gathering.
A/)-Sapphire.Raven:: Fascinating.
[W]-''Jera".: Rather.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hm.
A/)-Sapphire.Raven:: I wonder what brings you here today, Madam...?
\W/~Minami.Mi.: *yawns* Eh?
A/)-Sapphire.Raven:: The last time I saw one of your vessels, it was by the "Great Admiral" himself - up in Kusari.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Well yes. I -had- a planned meeting with someone in Magellan.
A/)-Sapphire.Raven:: Aha...
Dr.Thorn: *smirks slightly and crosses her arms*
\W/~Minami.Mi.: By...accident I met Locklear-san here.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: And yeah, he invited me for a little talk..
A/)-Sapphire.Raven:: Uh-huh.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I wasn't expecting such a crowd, to be fair..
[W]-''Jera".: Expect the unexpected.
[W]-''Jera".: Though I will show myself out, I still need to get to New London today.
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Hmh, I wonder how big this gathering here will grow..
[W]-''Jera".: Besides the presence of a terrorist is not precisely to my taste.
[W]-''Jera".: Anyway, Mr... uhh... Locklear?
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Yes?
[W]-''Jera".: On the subject of your requests to Wisp.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Consider them invitations.
[W]-''Jera".: I would suggest contacting the Logistics directly, saves everyone paperwork I presume.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Most likely.
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: I'll do so then.
[W]-''Jera".: Um. Anyway. Yes.
[W]-''Jera".: Farewell, ladies, sir.
A/)-Sapphire.Raven:: Farewell...
[HF]-HFBC-Invictus: Locklear: Sayonara, Auf Wiedersehen, and so on.
[W]-''Jera".: *smirks*
Dr.Thorn: *scratches her head* ... bye
\W/~Minami.Mi.: Whatever. Sayonara...hah.
(...)
Dr.Thorn: *bows her head* Ms.Jera.
[W]-''Jera".: Dr Thorn. *she greets her with a nod*
Dr.Thorn: *bows her head* A pleasure. I found that crowd... difficult to talk through. I aprpeciate you waiting up.
[W]-''Jera".: I expected you to follow me soon, I had a look at the transmission between you, Clark and Crown.
[W]-''Jera".: I expect you are heading to Cambridge?
Dr.Thorn: I had gathered as much. *smiles slightly* Indeed.
[W]-''Jera".: *rubs her chin* If you don't mind me asking, Doctor... What is your field of expertise?
Dr.Thorn: hmm... *pauses in thought* Whilst being a trained medical practitioner, my main focus in computer science.
Dr.Thorn: A lot more /possiblities. in that area. The shades of grey a lot more exciting.
[W]-''Jera".: *seems to be pondering something* Indeed...
Dr.Thorn: *raises an eyebrow* Something weighs on your mind?
[W]-''Jera".: *she hesitates with answering*
Dr.Thorn: *smiles slightly* It is ok. You need not say.
[W]-''Jera".: There is... something that Wisp works on... that you might find interesting.
[W]-''Jera".: And that could help us out as well.
[W]-''Jera".: I suppose here we will part ways, I'm going to New London.
[W]-''Jera".: But... well. On that note.
Dr.Thorn: Very well. Take care Ms.Jera
[W]-''Jera".: I will inform one of my friends in the research team to contact you if he sees fit.
Dr.Thorn: *nods her head* Intruiging, I would like to learn more of what it is thats going on on Atka. *grins*
[W]-''Jera".: *smiles* Good to know that it piqued your interest.
[W]-''Jera".: Meanwhile, I'll be going. The lack of sleep has had the better of me, it seems.
[W]-''Jera".: May the Archangels bless your path, Dr Thorn.
Incoming transmission
Ames Research Station, Kepler
Sender: Sasha Stone, Wisp Innovations Recipient: Wisp Innovations Communications Centre Subject: Kruger attack in Omicron Theta, for some reason
For some reason I was attacked by a Kruger vessel, all the way in Omicron Theta. It seems the ceasefire and the signing of the peace treaty has no meaning to them. The recordings from my vessel were saved and will be sent to the directorate through private communications.
I think that is all..
Sasha Stone, Wisp Innovations
Yesterday during a patrol around the Sigmas I found a few Corsair ships with Brotherhood markings. They had stopped an Outcast and secured his load of prisoners that were safely delivered to Atka. The results of Cardamine test came in earlier today and it seems that unfortunately most of these prisoners inhaled some of the orange menace and will need to use Stabiline for their treatment. The Corsairs left shortly after dropping off the prisoners on Atka.
Today I ventured out to the Taus and along with the IMG we fought several Outcasts there. Two sniffers fewer, nothing particularly notable.
