I am a long-absent Supreme Commander, Executive Commander, Grand Admiral, Fleet Admiral, and Captain in the mighty Hellfire Legion. I have returned, and am on an urgent mission from Drake Thastus to return the Legion to its former glory, and to claim the galaxy for its own. Only then will I be able to rest.

As you already know from pilot Aaron's report, we patrolled Omicron Alpha today. Everything seemed normal until we patrolled the Siniestre Cloud. We founds a large field of Outcast ships, deactivated and pilotless... But they were still intact! Then we ran into several Nomad fighters, and after dispatching them, detected something huge in the Unknown systems.
We went to investigate, but were intercepted by a huge Nomad fleet, larger than any I have ever even heard of! They ignored us at first , but when we tried to continue into the system, they blocked us and opened fire. We barely managed to escape with our lives.
Anyways, the HFC Silverblade has not contacted me in a week, so I assumed it was them, but... looking back at the scanning records, it was way too big. It was larger than a planet... so huge, in fact, that it was off the charts.
Something is going on. First, I'm attacked by a Junker Bartender, of all things. Next, I get word that my brother, a high-ranking official in a group called The Mercenarys, has vanished. After that, our Supreme Commander goes off on a mission to fight some unknown threat, and vanishes. Then you tell us to start scanning the Omicrons and Unknowns (I'd still like to know what that's about by the way.). Then the HFC Silverblade goes missing... Entire cruisers don't just go missing by themselves. And then, we detect a huge, moving object in the Unknown systems, and when we try to investigate, we are attacked by a huge Nomad force, larger than even those fleets that the Order had to fight off in the Nomad Wars. So yes, something is going on. There's something out there. A threat, it sounds like. Perhaps a new Nomad invasion? Mabye they have managed to create some sort of super-powered huge ship... Or super-station. Who knows? But anyways, I believe we need to stay on full alert. I would like to to send some expeditionary Automated Scouting Satellites to scan the Unknown systems. What do you think?
We have another enemy of the Legion... "~Tauri~Seras" corsair affiliated. He engaged the legion (myself and MicroIce), after previously threatened us. Here is the proof of his threats.

It is time i told you what this is about. I received this message from Drake a long while ago, and I feel something is coming along.
You have my permission to launch the Remote Probes, and I will send out the Renegade to attempt to find the Silverblade. Her cloaking technology will benefit us in the coming days.
Do not tell the recruits, simply tell them to assist the Renegade in anything she asks. The search party is in capable hands.
This is concerning, as I have never heard of a fleet this large. We may have to abandon the SA for now, and focus our efforts on the Nomads. I wish youropinion on this, as I have received intel that the SA may negotiate. I trust they will not be hostile for quite a while.
For the Legion! Kaine out.
OOC: I'll be on a lot more now, and as soon as I finish my Vespucci defense Outcast Dred, I'll be able to take the Atlas out to the Unknowns. It is a Nomad Fleet killer now, I mounted a pair of flak on it, and the splash damage kills the fighters and GBs instantly.
My laptop is working marvellously, so I'll be taking a lot more active role in-game.

A threat. This is starting sound almost like a Holovision show. Originally, I believed th- Hold on a moment, I'm getting a top priority transmission.
Hm... yes... so that threat is taken care of. But what was he doing kidnapping Relden? And where's Relden now? WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T KNOW?! Honestly, I expected more from The Mercenarys... Well fine, bring him to Mactan and I'll have a little "chat" with him. Denelo out.
Oh, my mistake, I left this transmitter on. Well, as you may have gathered from what I said, my brother's kidnapper has been captured. And do you know who he is? He's that same Junker who attacked me a few weeks ago and stole that data chip. I remember that I had to type all my messages for a week after that... my jaw is sore just thinking about it. But anyways, his name is Carlos Emiliano. He apperently snuck back into the same ship that he snatched my brother from, and managed to place antimatter bombs on the Main Fusion Converter. After the ship was towed back to Norfolk (By the Southern Alliance, it seems), they fixed the problem and added extra security. But apperently that Junker is insane... he tried the same thing again.
So they now have him on the Prison Ship San Quentin in the Omicrons, and are extracting information from him. He hasn't talked yet though, so they're now cutting through Omicron Alpha and Unknown to head back here. I will place him in Monterrey Base's top security prison, if you do not mind.
Now, back on our original subject, I will launch remote probes from the HFB Silverstorm and the HFGB Silverfire. I will also order a greater number of patrols around the Unknown Jump Holes in Omicrons Alpha and Delta. Shall I warn the Outcasts and Corsairs that they should pay extra attention to their respective Unknowns, or do you think that it would be wiser to not warn them?
And we should warn the Order I believe. They are experienced with this kind of thing, and would know what to do.
However... hold on. In the Supreme Commander's message, he mentioned the help of the NOMADS, of all things... that would mean... that whatever it is, we are not fighting Nomads. We are fighting something bigger, stronger, and more unknown.
As for the recruits, I will not tell any of them. You are right, we would not want to panic them.
The Southern Alliance... that will be more difficult. I hear they do not want to negotiate. Perhaps we should talk to them... not on open comms of course. In a private comm channel, for only the Southern Alliance leaders, you, and I. (OOC: PM + CC or Diplomacy thread in the RP section... which one do you want?)
And the Nomad Fleet: It consisted of 5 Battleships, several Cruisers, over 50 Gunboats, and thousands of fighters. (OOC: in reality it was just about 10 fighters, but this is better for the RP story... after all, 10 fighters isn't a "huge fleet":P)
Finally, I am CCing some more orders to you based upon this new evidence.

I am submitting new orders to everyone. Also, if the Renegade asks for assistance in anything what-so-ever, do as they say, and consider it a top-priority mission vital to the survival of the Legion. Also, if you notice anything odd, report it to me or Executive Commander Kaine right away, and please, at least for a while, do not question any orders, not even if you're respectful about it. You will understand later.

Continue scouting Omicron Alpha, and concentrate your patrols around the Unknown Jump Hole. Concentrate all your scanning power on the Unknown system that is connected to Omicron Alpha, and make sure you and all of your Radar officers examine it closely for any possible oddity.

Direct all patrols at the Unknown Jump Hole in Omicron Delta. Make sure not to miss a single detail, and make sure that nothing comes in or out of that system without you being aware of it.

Re-submission of orders
You and your two friends begin top-priority scans and incursions into the Omicron Major and Lost systems. Scan the systems, and report anything odd to either myself or the Executive Commander at once.

Move to Omicron Delta and begin patrolling around the Unknown Jump Hole. Also, be sure to go in and scan whenever possible. Do not engage any hostiles while inside the Unknown system, unless you find it impossible to escape.
I have so far been unable to identify the encryption and decipher the message.
What's even more disturbing, though, is that a nearby fellow Hacker ship helped me triangulate the source of the message to inside the ice cloud. I went in to investigate, but when I arrived at the origin of the message, there was nothing. Nothing! Not even ion trails from thrusters!
Perhaps it's nothing, perhaps I'm just being paranoid... But I thought you should know.
Sid Welsh out.
