Agent Solandros,
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Luke Briggs. I am a Captain within the Fifth Fleet who served as Rear Admiral Evans' first officer on the Florida.
A few months ago, Evans retired from the Fleet, passing this operation on to me. Since then, we have completed the main construction for the carrier, and it is ready for our rendezvous. Name a time and a place, and we will be there. The experimental jump-drive mounted on the Antietam has been transferred and mounted on the new carrier, so this will officially be a stress test. If all goes according to plan, the carrier will send out a distress beacon directed to Juneau Shipyard. By the time rescue crews arrive, all they will find is a debris field resembling an Atlantis-class carrier, and will then follow the signatures of the escape pods to the Osiris, which will show the full crew of the Atlantis on board, with only life support online. They'll see this as a golden opportunity and tow the ship back to Juneau.
At least, that's the plan.
Best regards,
Captain Luke Briggs
