You have all performed exceptionally well in these troubling times. Rewards are to be commended for these upstanding performances. Individuals: Xarexis, Veoh, for your heroic actions, you have been promoted to Guardian.
Take this time to rejuvenate, recover and heal up. We are still required out there, and with your valuable efforts in harassing them, we have collated enough data to understand what we may be against. Our science vessels have located several potential sites for extraction, we anticipate much action in the coming weeks.
Be ready to deploy from your rejuvenation period when duty calls.
Designated entity marked as "XB-OBS-001" also nicknamed as Destiny's Eye has come back onto record as of the late. Pilots who encounter a being composed of pure energy dissipating into mist are to report all sightings and utilize neural interfacing to record mind activity. Ensure you write down the location of the sighting and the manner of the encounter.
Old data has been recorded upon the sightings, including the visuals of the creature. You may look at the references here:
Confirmed sightings pre-June 828 A.S: New York, Pennsylvania, Omicron Delta, Omega-3, Newcastle, Zurich, New London, Hokkaido, Inverness.
Rewards are available for those who report in sightings. Stay vigilant, perhaps there is something going on, now that they re-appear. Inquiries with the Vagrants may be prudent.
During my expedition for suitable worlds for Project Winter, it appears my little drone friend discovered an Outpost within the southern fringes of the Edinburgh. It may be prudent to sell this location data for some monetary gain.
In addition, the Ousia department has validated and authorised one vessel for area examination. Authorisation signature forwarding.
Patrol team, rota 24-673 - evening team reporting in.
We have discovered a facility looming over the derelict remains of the Insurgent shipyard that was previously destroyed. Affiliation remains largely unknown. It may be worth a security check to ensure they're not harvesting off of local resources.
"XB-OBS-001" as well as several Order and Core vessels have been detected within the Omicron Delta region, conflicting over a facility titled Apollo Station. In addition, Phoenix assets have been observed by Expedition units, flying towards the scene of conflict with repair vessels. Further investigation is required.
We shall harass the facility, to test the responsiveness of both the Core and the Order. Do not destroy the facility, prolong the conflict as long as possible. Collate all data upon our foes assets. Verify the intentions of the Phoenix, so that we may analyse their probable involvement in the upcoming future.
Templar reporting in. I regret to inform that the Phoenix Zoner group has potentially been compromised by the Order's ideals, they seem to believe that Navarch Valentine's assault group is infested, and by association, all of us.
Although the upset individual refused to elaborate, the Core had stepped in to demand some synthetic crystals off of the Phoenix right outside their own facility, I swooped in to snag one drop of Artifacts. The rest were securely transferred to the Core. Shortly after, the Core opened fire upon me, as well as the Phoenix. The two fighter craft were successfully disabled, and the Transport was heavily damaged, my extraction was successful before more Core vessels arrived. Data logs provided. It may be prudent to investigate the purpose of these spineless "Zoners" and to forbid their vessels operating near any of our regions.

This is Supreme Navarch Hachette reporting to Primary database. I was to oversee the Cepheus' refitting and weaponry calibration tests at the Citadel before moving to forward field command and real time combat testing of the vessel, namely in the deep Omicrons. My own handling of this crude vessel was also put to the test, it lacks grace and subtlety, it is more of a wedge than a scalpel, still, I managed.
I partook in multiple operations in the heart of Omicron conflict, the star system known as Zeta, and a couple minor excursions into neighboring Delta. The majority of said operations were spearheaded by Navarch Valentine's assault group until I was finished familiarizing myself with the Cepheus. Our first excursion landed us in Zeta, where we made contact with the zoner group known as Phoenix, who were engaged in conflict with vessels likely commanded by infested individuals who fought alongside minor nomad combat morphs. We were forced to dispatch a few Core stragglers prior to further communication. Achlys actual saw an opportunity to remove dangerous materials from the hands of Phoenix before they could be handed over to the misguided and tyrannical Core, or worse, Zoner researchers who have no loyalty and no goal. The spark of conflict was quick to ignite an execution after Phoenix jettisoned the material and proceeded to burn it before our eyes to taunt us. However I am no stranger to putting down dogs beset by mange masquerading as humans, so I quickly entered the fray ahead of the Achlys who lay down heavy supporting fire from afar while I used the Cepheus' close range weaponry to riddle pockets in the hull of the Phoenix capital vessels. I was tasked once again with repurposing the Cepheus' large weaponry on disgusting, insignificant roaches pretending to fit the role of bombers. Unfortunately, one must make do when manpower is lacking.
The result of the conflict was several destroyed Phoenix and Core vessels with the Phoenix flag ship marooned on the Core station, thus reaffirming that the motley band of peasant scum is indeed in bed with the Core. There were brief skirmishes with the Core in the northern region of Zeta, and the central region of Delta shortly thereafter, nothing else of note took place.
The Eidolon has completed a second run to the decaying City in Knossos, obtaining another hundred units of Relics. The first batch was obtained by Hachette. In addition, the Research Vessel Corvus has obtained both samples of Azurite and Relics, interdicted from a Universal vessel.
It has come to our attention that the one known as the "Edwards" in command of the LNS-Akhetaten has been arranging more meetings with the local Order branch, known as "S8". Observations of his movement and contacts are necessary. External assets are to be considered for such a task, due to his presence in Liberty.
Quote:[06.08.2021 22:01:29] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Gunnery, if the Core or Auxesian vessels come close, splash them.
[06.08.2021 22:01:29] 5th|Charlotte.Wilkes: A good day to you.
[06.08.2021 22:01:37] A/)-Zircon: Oh?

[06.08.2021 22:02:39] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: How lucky.
[06.08.2021 22:02:42] A/)-Zircon: I am unphased by such.
[06.08.2021 22:03:14] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Sysops, on my mark.
[06.08.2021 22:03:34] A/)-Zircon: Such persistance.
[06.08.2021 22:03:36] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Mark.
[06.08.2021 22:03:38] A/)-Zircon: One would ponder why they are here.
[06.08.2021 22:03:47] A/)-Zircon: No doubt to enact terror.
[06.08.2021 22:04:14] LNS-Resonance: Adams: My apologies, Fleet Admiral. We are currently staying in this position, awaiting further orders.
[06.08.2021 22:04:18] Oracle|Diana.Rivera: Whoever is responsible on the Akhetaten, I do recognize this design from way back in the day. It does ring a bell.
[06.08.2021 22:04:28] 46th|Delta-13: Copy, must just be me. *slams comms unit* Ahh...fixed.
[06.08.2021 22:04:44] 5th|LNS-Akhetaten: Edwards: And what about the design, Miss Rivera?
[06.08.2021 22:05:04] Oracle|Diana.Rivera: I'm curious. It looks ... different. The Order has adapted it, no?
[06.08.2021 22:05:06] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Edwards, kindly be in touch concerning the encounter.
[06.08.2021 22:05:18] A/)-Zircon: Hm.
[06.08.2021 22:05:21] 5th|LNS-Akhetaten: Edwards: Kindly be in touch?
[06.08.2021 22:05:28] 5th|LNS-Akhetaten: Edwards: Will keep that in mind.
[06.08.2021 22:05:35] 5th|LNS-Akhetaten: Edwards: Let us meet some other time.
[06.08.2021 22:05:41] Rook: What an ugly god damn ship.
[06.08.2021 22:05:51] 5th|LNS-Akhetaten: Edwards: Miss Rivera, the Akhetaten has never served for the Order nor is constructed by the Order.
[06.08.2021 22:05:56] =LSF=Fort.Wainwright: RO: Say that again?
[06.08.2021 22:06:01] A/)-Zircon: Yet, more than willing to meet with the Order, hm?
[06.08.2021 22:06:06] Rook: I said.
[06.08.2021 22:06:10] Rook: "What an ugly god damn ship."
[06.08.2021 22:06:11] A/)-Zircon: What business would a Navy Commodore have with the Order?
[06.08.2021 22:06:40] =LSF=Fort.Wainwright: RO: More information about the 5th Fleet meeting with Order operatives? Intriguing.
[06.08.2021 22:06:46] 5th|LNS-Akhetaten: Edwards: That would be none of your business.
[06.08.2021 22:06:57] =LSF=Fort.Wainwright: RO: It is -our- business, however.
[06.08.2021 22:07:03] A/)-Zircon: It is quite my business, Mister The Edwards.
[06.08.2021 22:07:21] Rook: I can testify the 5th fleet was being harassed by an order vessel, rather than meeting with it.
[06.08.2021 22:07:29] 5th|LNS-Akhetaten: Edwards: You are advised to forward your concerns to the Admiralty.
[06.08.2021 22:07:52] =LSF=Fort.Wainwright: RO: We did. And yet, nobody answered. Perhaps it is a good time to re-send the communication.
[06.08.2021 22:08:01] 5th|LNS-Akhetaten: Edwards: That is up to you.
[06.08.2021 22:08:13] LNS-Resonance: Adams: Maybe it is not worth the effort for the Admiralty.
[06.08.2021 22:08:24] LNS-Resonance: Adams: There are more pressing concerns to take care of.
[06.08.2021 22:08:29] A/)-Zircon: Or perhaps the cordial mannerism run deeper than you initially thought.
INTERNAL UPLINK - FOR DIRECTORATE EYES ONLY:
It appears we have some individuals interested in Harbinger's quest. We need to keep an eye on these persons, namely Vincent Abrams of the Ridge, Anna Heinrich and her partner - Luciano Marquez of the Order Overwatch, John Silverstone of the Rusty.Old.Screw and other vessels.
My concerns were affirmed by Eris of the Vagrants, regarding who or what Shamash is. With clarity now in mind regarding the 'first one', we need not fear, but rejoice for opportunity. Vagrants have forewarned to not invoke their wrath, perhaps they may be in potential danger too, we do not know for now.
Regardless ... We are not to intervene at any cost - forget about Humanity, they will persist as always. We will defend ourselves if deemed necessary, but our focuses ultimately remain on path. Perhaps we can dedicate the Research Wing into investing for "pollutant dampeners" to deter both vessels alike, but for now Orion group remains on task for expansion and investment into cryo-tech and dark matter manipulation.
I do not fear Harbinger, but you reserve your rights for distrust.Species only care for their own, this much has been proven. I will not permit us to be manipulated. But their intentions have shown they are not interested within Gammu and the Ascension. For now, we will passive, once again barring the incidence of securing our home.
Oh, and Iseijin have been taking joyful shots at our vessels, do feel free to eliminate them if they are within the way.
In light of these new circumstances, I will require Hachette and Statuette to convene at the earliest convenience to discuss the potentials of the "Mastermind Project".
It has come to our attention that the ZV-Bahamut has been coming back and testing our defence teams once more, blatantly disregarding our sovereignty. And now they have come with pride of friendship with the Order.
Exterminate the vessel and their crew. Enough is enough. Collaborators of the Xenophages will be punished severely.
This is Lazurith speaking. The time I've spent out of my lab has been far more exhausting than I thought.
After returning from Ousia to debrief back to HQ, I took the liberty to poke around our labs. N-not that I don't have the clearance for this, but it would seem that a great deal of arrays, processors and even artifacts were stocked together, along with blueprints for the Liberty Siege Cruisers, waiting and quietly rusting in stasis in our drydocks to this day. Bolstering our home security is in our best interest, and yet far, far down in our priorities at the moment. I would like to request permission to contribute or even supervise the LSC project which has been left in stasis for far longer than it should have, with HQ's permission of course. I've noticed several flaws even by giving a brief look at our studied schematics. I won't go into details, but disassembling or tinkering with Ageira components often proves more dangerous than it should be. I suggest that leaving the project to someone who knows how to minimize any possible Ageira-related catastrophic flaws would probably be wiser than leaving it to wither and rot on its own. Better put our labs back to good use, no?
