Greetings.

IMG had sent a distress signal mentioning something about the Nomads, so I went to the Omega 3 system to lend them a hand.

They had wiped out the Nomads by the time I arrived, but instead, I found something else, or rather, someone.

A man named Sidonis flying a OSC shuttle with an interest in Nomads.

He asked to tag along with me on our way to Omega 3.

At the Freeport 1, we found an agglomeration of Freelancers, a Gaian, an Hessian affiliate, a Corsair, and...our old pals, Auxesia.

I did a cargo scan on the Auxesian gunboat, and I found some interesting stuff.

I inspected this cargo further, gathering all the readings that I could.

Another freelancer was in the possession of another of such devices, it appeared to me that Auxesia tried to buy it off her, but she wouldn't sell it, even for 250 million credits, if she refused such a sum, that means that whatever this is, it must be extremely valuable.

Another individual on the scene also had some very expensive cargo, looks like we intruded upon a high ranked meeting around Freeport 1.

The Auxesian didn't seem bothered by our presence there, and continued to talk about the Nomads, so we listened.

The Auxesians seem to prefer using artificial intelligence to do the work for them, maybe this is why it didn't care, or even realized we were listening, can't always rely on those.

But the AI was mentioning the Nomads having the ability to artificially generate jump holes as a means of travel, the same thing me and Jimmy discovered in the alien system a while ago.

Apparently Auxesia finally caught up to our discoveries, and now they are in possession of what appears to be the technology to do it, we might want to consider acquiring some ourselves if we care about keeping up the race.

The curiosity got the better of us, and we followed the Auxesian gunboat to figure out where it was bringing this thing, we had to give up the search when the Auxesian entered Vespucci.

We did not pursue further.

In Coronado, we encountered a Liberty dreadnought, LNS-Montana that was being detained by the Cryterian Military.

Apparently the admiral on board was acting weird, lying to the Cryterians, and what sounded like some fight going on aboard the command deck, apparently high ranked Navy members aboard were not agreeing to the admiral's commands.

The Cryterians took the ship in custody and brought it to the Sabah shipyard where they boarded the ship.

After listening in on some contradictory comments made by the personnel aboard, I assume that at least part of the crew is Nomad infected, but this is a baseless assumption therefore, we kept our mouths shut.

I believe mister Sidonis could be an asset in our research regarding the Nomads.

I will create a channel between me, him, mister Wallace and mister Aetius in which he will receive the needed instructions and hopefully become an asset.

Ivan Norovich out.
