Kaigun Gensui Okamoto, on behalf of the engineering team currently on board the Nagato.

The last weeks were surprisingly calm and gave opportunity for a wide array of field trials. I am pleased with the modifications of the Nagato, despite the eerie feeling creeping up everyone's spine when they enter the engine decks. The engineers of Kure discovered one massive flaw to these experimental arrays however: Ichigaya's team reconfigured the Nagato's shield generators in a way disallowing the purposeful disabling of the shields themselves and added two emergency power generators drawing from the main reactors to maintain a miniscule energy field polarizing the hull even in the event of a critical shield failure.

Our engineers explained to me that in the scenario of both emergency generators also failing, the excess energy generated by - as it turned out an Alien Artifact - will accumulate to a point of critical overload. Should this excess energy not be removed somehow, the entire engine array would be ripped apart in an explosion likely strong enough to render the rest of the Nagato mere debris as well.

Beginning tomorrow, Kure's engineering team will start to examine alternative ways to release potential excess energy through various means. This step shall be noted as "Trial Phase II".

This is all.
In service of his Imperial Majesty and the people of Kusari,
Kaigun Gensui Okamoto
