Tertiary Encounter, November 6th, 823 A.S

A sensor ping occurred within New York during standard operations in which The Curator, Keeper and Venator McAllister (who has since been added to this case file for review) moved to investigate another hyperspace reading. With no fixed location, a 'follow-up' was speculated, and thus the Detroit Debris Field was investigated at the location in which anomaly K751 was detected.

The encounter occurred when the vessel begun to speak and revealed its self with several well armed escort craft. Legion assets investigated closely, as we had already recovered the necessary scans in our previous encounter. The commanding officer of the Bustard-Class identified himself as one Saint Brutus, and referenced another individual known as Saint Andrew.

The individual "Saint Brutus" was rather vague as to his intentions, origins and destination. In the final few minutes he noted that this would be 'the last time we meet' which implied he had no intention of encountering us again. This is of course relating to his decision to give away his position and decloak to speak to us. In any other circumstance with any other party not present, it's likely his vessel would come under fire. Noted in the few times this carrier was encountered was its lack of shielding, yet "Saint Brutus" claims their hull is more than capable of withstanding any assaults, despite the minor damage it had already received. They turned down an offer to receive field repairs.

Observing the mannerisms and naming conventions of "Saint Brutus" and the mentioned "Saint Andrew' leads me to assume that 'The Cult' is in fact a religiously motivated organization. Keeper Revenant's theory in related to the 'Gatekeeper' technology located in Omicron Zeta might have a direct correlation to the particle beam weaponry which the Bustard-Class used to disrupt and seal K751, given similar properties and function. However the Gatekeepers weren't intended to disperse and remove the anomaly, but rather prevent people from using it, while the weaponry used by the Techa Vindicata completely disrupted the anomaly. Given the vessel later returned to ensure their work was finished, this isn't the first time they've performed such a task.

Observing their speech and hearing what they've said has left the idea that they're xenophobic. They've no intention to make friends or enemies. Given their technological prowess I have no doubt that any enemy they make would be in for a fight. Their motives remain unclear, and it's obvious that "Saint Brutus" answers to someone else, given how he mentioned he had a task to accomplish. In cultist society, tasks are handed down to followers of the cult's ideals rather than people in a seat of power. Prophets, so to speak, would avoid entering the field for mundane duties or tasks.

Looking over the listed theories, it's entirely possible given our own technological secrets to attempt to draw out 'The Cult'. Making use of our more advanced and secretive projects could attract their attention if technology is what they're after. It may be, given their possession of components relating to item #3287 that further experimenting with said items might possibly be sacrilegious to them. They've proven capable of sealing anomalies, and if the item does what we assume it can do, then we have our bait.
