Recently, I accosted a Universal Shipping Mastodon near the Cortez jump hole in California. Her captain proved unresponsive (and later, suicidal and fluent in gibberish), and so the tedious task of destroying it in a Scimitar began.

One of your pilots, Marc Riviera, was nearby and moved to assist. While a Mastodon is far from a dangerous opponent, I was still surprised - and grateful - to see a Dagger engaging. Every extra gun helps.

His performance was quite impressive given his ship and, I assume from his equipment, the fact that he only recently joined your band. Unfortunately, few of the scientists aboard the ship could be rescued in time. A scan did pick some up in Riviera's hold, so perhaps he was more successful than I; I hope they made it to Mactan safely.

Your recruit shows considerable promise. Keep an eye on him.
