"So today was a 'chase' day. The currently unregistered Battleship Amenhotep's long range scanners picked up a Zoner ship passing through the Omicrons without Order consent. We chased him across Zeta and Sigma-17 until I catched him flying near Planet Kurile. I threw a lucky cruise disruptor at them just as they entered cruise. He stopped and I sent a location privately to the Amenhotep, who uncloaked above the ship."
"Turns out the trespassing ship, which was a Corvo Deep Space Explorer, was tagged as a part of the IPA. I can't quite put my finger on what division of the Zoners that is, but I haven't heard about that. This Corvo was called the Alkemia. Scanning its hold revealed he was carrying an infested human on board. Apparently he was nearby an alien Shrine, of all places. So of course, we ran the biological scanners on his crew for any infestations, and found nothing strange on the crew, save for the 'imprisoned' infested, who the captain promised was locked up in a reinforced prison cell. Strange for deep space explorers to have cells."
"Anyway, we successfully got the Zoner Explorer Ship to jettison the Nomad. The Nomad was successfully melted away with the heavy mortars of the Amenhotep, and another biological matter scan sent back all green reports. After cleansing, we made sure the crew of the Alkemia knew not to enter Order Space without predetermined consent, and left for Omicron Mu. Space is now somewhat slightly safer for today."
Order Recon Report (Encrypted for Order Eyes Only).
"Well, looky what we have here. Now, I know I'm not qualified for reconnaissance, but this was too interesting to turn down. The Core so happened to be flying around Omicron-92 at the time of this picture. Looks like a fighter and what could be a battleship or a battlecruiser. I don't know, haven't seen any of their capital ships yet 'til now. i must've chased them halfway around the Omicrons to get this little snippet while cloaked. I didn't have enough time to scan either of them as they were quick to take their leave. Mu, Epsilon, 92, Beta, Minor, all the way to Delta, where they seemed to hole up for the day. Their signal went dry and I was too low on cloaking batteries to close the gap. Here is their route in order: Omicron Mu, Epsilon, 92, Beta, 92, Epsilon, Mu, Minor, Delta. Now, I don't know what they were doing flicking around like this, but they were up to something. I'm out for now."
#5 here with a little overview of what crap has happened in Mu today.
Okay, where to start? Ah, right!
You know, I took a bit of holidays from all of you freaks and to get a bit warm in my cockpit again, I decided to enter some training simulations.
Heh, not long after some freelancer fool entered Mu. And hey, he even admitted to not have clearance for it.
Right, Admiral Golanski or who else of the High Command is listening - or rather not - Seriously, set up big signs at the jumpholes.
Or are they too expensive to be renewed whenever those Core fools fly into them with their low flight skills?
Eh, whatever.
Well, recruit McCray and I interrogated that freelancer about his reason to enter Mu.
Seems like he wanted to help the Order because he claimed to have find out about cardamine altering humans to a degree where they start to become nomads.
Well...both McCray and I told him...eh, about a dozen times were are not the stupid LPI or other police force in Liberty. The freelancer was quite stubborn.
Already had my fingers on the trigger but McCray had more patience. To be honest?
We should have blown him up right away, could have saved us a lot of time. And I could have had some good target practice again.
Because in the end we found out that he once worked as supplier for the Outcasts. Oh man.. and he always said something about how trustful he was.
To make it short, we McCray and I threw im out to Sigma-59 and reminded him not to enter our lawn again. Not sure if he received the message though.
Shorty after the Osiris class vessel Amenhotep called in backup regarding a Zoner Nephilim that did not respond to any hails.
At first I thought this to be a joke, I mean, it's not the first time we see that kind of capital ship in Mu.
But guess what, in short time we had to witness how the Zoner captain engaged a few Nammus and tried to get away with the nomad remains aboard.
Well, several attempts from us to make the captain surrender met some deaf ears - or the captain was just listining to some sort of music while the Amenhotep and me
yelled at him. Heck, even mortar fire that disabled the shields and damaged its hull did not change anything.
We were almos able to destroy the ship for the sake of security but somehow it was able to cloak away.
So, ladies, I suggest we keep an eye out for that zoner. Might not be the last time we will see him.
High Command, Blood Dragons, and every ally of the Order...
I am Commander Rika Hunter of the Order's Gunship Destiny's Embrace. Today we assisted pilots in the attempt to evacuate a very important person from Liberty to the safety of the Blood Dragons, when we were intercepted in the Coronado System by Battlegroup Auxesia. Not only did they risk the life and shoot down the VIP, but they engaged the Order and, in their incompetence, allowed one of our pilots to be shot down by the Aoi Iseijin, who arrived amidst the chaos. We took a hit and are hiding within the Inverness System with the Atum...but here is not only the proof that Auxesia can't outfly a hathor commanded by a "kid" but they are not above telling the Nomads, the very beings they hate, to attack us.

This is Ensign Frost, reporting from aboard Kyoto Base. The Battleship Mt. Fuji gathered up my fighter and life pod and am currently resting while they make priority repairs to it. Apparently an EPS Conduit exploded ad that is what crippled my ship, thus causing my life pods ejection. Anyhow, the events from earlier tonight were quite numerous, yet I do need to submit my ships log containing the interaction with Xenia Onatopp, the VIP we wound up escorting and subsequently losing to the hands of Auxesian forces.
I will include the relevant files and communications with this hacker if that is what they truly were. We had no real solid answer on whether they were affiliated with the Lane Hackers or if they were simply working for them. However, the most pertinent bit of information comes in the form of a Data Breach on Pueblo Station Onatopp claims originated in Alaska. While this individual claims they were unable to decrypt what little of the data stream they managed to record before the hack was interrupted, They did say that they managed to get a single word, Harmony.
[01.08.2016 22:56:14] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Well.
[01.08.2016 22:56:23] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: This is a bit...awkward.
[01.08.2016 22:56:36] Order|Jessica.Frost: How so, Pilot?
[01.08.2016 22:56:44] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Ah, just ignore me.
[01.08.2016 22:56:49] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I've had a bad week.
[01.08.2016 22:57:13] Order|Jessica.Frost: Sorry to here that, the navy giving you grief?
[01.08.2016 22:57:24] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Indeed.
[01.08.2016 22:57:31] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I had to run for weeks now.
[01.08.2016 22:57:51] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: They only ones that lend a hand to help me are the rogues and the junkers.
[01.08.2016 22:57:57] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Who would had thought, huh ?
[01.08.2016 22:58:37] Order|Jessica.Frost: Well, you have a Rogue vessle, so I assume they did... but, whats with your callsign?
[01.08.2016 22:58:53] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Its a ... alias.
[01.08.2016 22:59:02] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I can't show my real name anymore.
[01.08.2016 22:59:08] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Not after what I've done.
[01.08.2016 22:59:10] Order|Jessica.Frost: talking with a strangely IFFEd Rogue.
[01.08.2016 22:59:18] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: They are scanning for me.
[01.08.2016 22:59:24] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Ensign Mitchell, ready to assist.
[01.08.2016 23:00:11] Order|Jessica.Frost: What is it you have done, Pilot that would cause the Navy to be after you?
[01.08.2016 23:00:32] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: You see, just a couple of weeks ago, my life was normal.
[01.08.2016 23:00:39] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Well, normal for me anyway.
[01.08.2016 23:00:44] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I worked for Ageira.
[01.08.2016 23:00:51] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I was an ecryption specialist.
01.08.2016 23:01:16] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I usually had to make sure some ... "sensitive" files were heavily encrypted.
[01.08.2016 23:01:38] Order|Jessica.Frost: Ageria, huh? and the Navy is after you for something regarding them?
[01.08.2016 23:01:41] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: But, I didn't do just that.
[01.08.2016 23:01:55] Order|Jessica.Frost: what kinda rep you got on that ship, michi?
[01.08.2016 23:01:59] Order|Scott.Mitchell: For an encryption specialist... Rogues seem to be low.
[01.08.2016 23:02:03] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: You see, I've....I've been giving the Lane Hackers intel.
[01.08.2016 23:02:22] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I've been feeding the intel to the hackers for two years now.
[01.08.2016 23:02:39] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Last month, there was a security breack to Pueblo Station.
[01.08.2016 23:02:41] Order|Jessica.Frost: I've heard that Lane hackers tend to come from Ageria backgrounds. Is nothing new really.
[01.08.2016 23:03:09] Order|Jessica.Frost: What kind of breach?
[01.08.2016 23:03:10] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Yeah... I am just trying to decipher those junk IFF codes... those show Liberty Rogues.
[01.08.2016 23:03:25] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: The breach was unclear.
[01.08.2016 23:03:39] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: The system just shut down and all datacenters were locked down.
[01.08.2016 23:03:42] Order|Jessica.Frost: were you able to find the source?
[01.08.2016 23:03:46] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Yes.
[01.08.2016 23:03:56] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: A system I though were just rummors.
[01.08.2016 23:04:11] Order|Jessica.Frost: *raises eyebrow* What system?
[01.08.2016 23:04:28] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: You know, I've spent a lot of time hacking the neural net.
[01.08.2016 23:04:35] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I've read a lot of crazy stories.
[01.08.2016 23:04:42] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: But never though they were real.
[01.08.2016 23:04:45] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Alaska.
[01.08.2016 23:04:47] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Zone 21.
[01.08.2016 23:04:50] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: They are real.
[01.08.2016 23:05:04] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Alaska huh? You dont have to say that to us.
[01.08.2016 23:05:14] Order|Jessica.Frost: Heh, very true.
[01.08.2016 23:05:15] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Yeah, I figgured that much by now.
[01.08.2016 23:05:25] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: To be honest, I don't know what to belive anymore.
[01.08.2016 23:05:33] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Are you even...you know.
[01.08.2016 23:05:34] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Yourself, for the start.
[01.08.2016 23:05:35] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Terrorists ?
[01.08.2016 23:06:10] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Depends who you ask. We see ourselves as the only lawful entity in Sirius that gives a crap about Nomads without any facade.
[01.08.2016 23:06:21] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: *She sighs*
[01.08.2016 23:06:39] Order|Jessica.Frost: Yes Pilot, Nomads are real as well, in case you had doubts.
[01.08.2016 23:06:46] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Well, since you didn't just atomize my hull on the first sight, I might as well believe you.
[01.08.2016 23:07:14] Order|Jessica.Frost: Tell me, pilot, you said the data breach originated in Alaska, correct?
[01.08.2016 23:07:19] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Yes.
[01.08.2016 23:07:28] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Just before everything went down.
[01.08.2016 23:07:38] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Perhaps that's why we're here...
[01.08.2016 23:07:44] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Exactlly 2.034 seconds, a very small data stream came from there.
[01.08.2016 23:07:51] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Through subspace.
[01.08.2016 23:08:09] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I've tryed to recover whatever was in that data package.
[01.08.2016 23:08:22] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Are you in posession of that data package with you?
[01.08.2016 23:08:41] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I could only get some lines of codes that I've translated. No way I would carry that on me.
[01.08.2016 23:09:07] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: After that, Ageira must had known.
[01.08.2016 23:09:12] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Perhaps Wedjat could make something out of it.
[01.08.2016 23:09:22] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Because they set up a trap for me and I fell right in it.
[01.08.2016 23:09:31] Order|Scott.Mitchell: I've spent considerable ammount of time on Bayonet class interceptors but I am not an expert...
[01.08.2016 23:10:06] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: There is nothing to figgure it out.
[01.08.2016 23:10:11] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Shame.
[01.08.2016 23:10:17] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: There was just a word after the translation.
[01.08.2016 23:10:25] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: "HARMONY"
[01.08.2016 23:10:36] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Hmm...
[01.08.2016 23:10:38] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I couldn't make any sense about it so I've sent it to the lane hackers.
[01.08.2016 23:10:57] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Next thing you know, Ageira agents are rushing towards my room.
[01.08.2016 23:11:09] Order|Jessica.Frost: Ensign... wasnt there some chatter about the Harmony in the past few hours?
[01.08.2016 23:11:28] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Liberty tacnet is hot with activity and it is not because of Gallic invasion.
[01.08.2016 23:11:44] Order|Scott.Mitchell: The Order has some data on "harmony" however it is classified beyond my level of clearance.
[01.08.2016 23:12:02] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: The lane hackers seems to know what is all that about.
[01.08.2016 23:12:08] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: But they can't just take me in.
[01.08.2016 23:12:16] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I mean, they already did more than enough.
[01.08.2016 23:12:43] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: They warned me to leave, and they offered a contact in Pennsylvania for me to lay low.
[01.08.2016 23:13:12] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: They still can't fully trust me, so I need to gain their trust first.
[01.08.2016 23:13:23] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Their one hundred percent trust.
[01.08.2016 23:13:38] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: One rogue mission, and one junker errand at a time. Saddly.
[01.08.2016 23:14:01] Order|Scott.Mitchell: After all that dirty work you did for them...
[01.08.2016 23:14:18] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Well, it is understandable.
[01.08.2016 23:14:26] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: After all, even I would do the same.
[01.08.2016 23:14:33] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: What if I would be a double agent ?
[01.08.2016 23:14:53] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Made by the Navy and Ageira to look like I was a spy.
[01.08.2016 23:14:58] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: To infiltrate the hackers.
[01.08.2016 23:15:17] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Making few errands for criminal elements in Liberty is enough to make up their mind? Any LSF undercover could do that.
[01.08.2016 23:15:51] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Well, who knows what is their plan.
[01.08.2016 23:16:06] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: But I sure as heck didn't even heard of a spy infiltrating the hackers, did you ?
[01.08.2016 23:16:10] Order|Jessica.Frost: The lane hackers have their ways of determining rather or not someone is truthful with their background.
[01.08.2016 23:16:56] Order|Scott.Mitchell: I dunno... we milked Hackers for hardware for years... speaking of my previous line of work.
[01.08.2016 23:17:02] Order|Jessica.Frost: I could say there was never a time when this happened, but I would rather keep my past with the hackers out of this.
[01.08.2016 23:17:26] Order|Destiny's.Embrace: Rika: This is Destiny's Embrace, we're inbound.
[01.08.2016 23:17:35] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: So their methods must work then.
[01.08.2016 23:17:51] Order|Scott.Mitchell: Doubtful, especially after they were removed from Vespucci alltogether.
[01.08.2016 23:17:57] Order|Jessica.Frost: If you are truely not an infiltrator, then I can say with utmost certenty, that they will know.
[01.08.2016 23:18:52] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Pretty sure there is a reason behind their way.
[01.08.2016 23:18:52] Order|Jessica.Frost: Vespucci was a special case, Mitchell.
[01.08.2016 23:19:00] Order|Scott.Mitchell: If you say so.
[01.08.2016 23:19:09] Order|Jessica.Frost: I do.
[01.08.2016 23:19:46] Order|Destiny's.Embrace: Rika: linking to the Ghost Eye....done.
[01.08.2016 23:20:01] Order|Scott.Mitchell: It's a shame you cannot provide any more data on that package you have attempted to decrypt...
[01.08.2016 23:20:15] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: Well ...
[01.08.2016 23:20:20] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I don't know.
[01.08.2016 23:20:24] R~LH~Xenia.Onatopp: I might but...
[01.08.2016 23:20:24] Order|Jessica.Frost: Pilot, I do not believe we asked for your name.
[01.08.2016 23:20:25] Order|Destiny's.Embrace: *The overhead hologram crystals warm up, displaying the the holographic figure of Jeremy*
[01.08.2016 23:20:33] Order|Destiny's.Embrace: Jeremy: I believe Harmony was involved?
The rest, as I have read has been commented on by Commander Rika Hunter. As for my current status, I will be remaining on Kyoto until my fighter is fully repaired. Should only take a few days.
"So I was enjoying a nice dinner at home when I get word saying that hostile capital ships entered Omicron Mu. I dropped my fork on the ground and shouted 'What?!', and ran to my fighter to undock, hurriedly as I can, I was in my pajamas. By the time I undocked, the two warships were already dead. The Amenhotep and The Oblivion already took care of it. I talked with them for a bit until we picked up a strange entity on the scanners. A Nomad by the name of Elune. The captain of the Amenhotep describes fighting this Nomad in Omicron Iota, but it got away. So, again it showed up, and got away again before we could cruise disrupt it. Later on, we detected that it got destroyed by unknown means. After which, I went back to my dinner, the Amenhotep guarded Akabat, and The Oblivion went for a repair. Amber out."
Reporting the destruction of Liberty Battleship Overlord class LNS-Thunderbolt, Kusari Battleship Izumo, and one Spacial called The_Hubble.
We received reports of the crew of both LNS-Thunderbolt and the crew of the Izumo were in fact infected and was planning an assault on Omicron Mu. Commited to the Order cause and the the protection of humanity Battleship Amenhotep, Battleship The.Oblivion, Order|Anubis, and Battleship Order|CV-Osiris engaged these hostile forces and destroyed them with no remorse or mercy. The.Oblivion made use of his agility and led both battleships on a chase witch opened up an attack from their flanks as the Amenhotep opened fire along with the CV-Osiris. The.Oblivion obliterated The_Hubble with one sweep of his battleship razors and evaded enemy motor strikes. Oblivion took minor haul and weapon damage, he will be repaired at Sicca without delay and put back out on patrol. As for the Amenhotep and Order|CV-Osiris we remained undamaged and is back out on patrol. Amenhotep is currently guarding Akabat and is awaiting further orders.
1011:10:0010:1001 Sender ID: Captain Aelita Stone
Location:Wedjat Facility Jordania Subject: Update...something seems wrong.. 1011:10:0010:1001 "Good day admirals, sorry about this late report, as you may already know, I was in the hospital; out cold, for the last few weeks after my sister Milly pulled her escape. To give you an update on what happened, I went down to her prison cell level to personally speak with her one on one and...she just used me to escape her holding cell. I heard there was a few people hurt in her escape, and now I've been informed that my fiance Jeremy's mother was kidnapped."
"While at the moment I can't confirm if its her or not, I have noticed that the tracer for the Lyoko has gone completely missing from Order space, and is now resting somewhere down in the Tau sector of Sirius, and have noticed that Ghost team Psi and Echo have gone missing as well...it seems Milly took enough for two squads with her in her escape; and from what I've been told, she also stole some munitions of Kemwer with her as well...it actually seems she took her own militia force with her..."
"I'm not going to say my sister is the cause...but this seems to highly connected to just let it slip, not to mention, if it is her, that she went after Jeremy's mother and now is back with the nomads...this seems like something she'd do, though it's hard to tell."
"Something that I'm also struggling to find now is two missing DNAB's...sir, those were suppose to be under Defcon lockdown after the stuff Kelly did, we have to find them before she, or whoever took them, use them for something that they were never planned to be used for...I'll upload the DNAB's information file to your private comms, its...something that was in development for a while...and now two of them are missing.."
"I'll wait for an update from either you or Jeremy on what I should do...I'm not about to let these devices and my sister slip away again...not again...never again..."
"Well, today was rather interesting. I decided to go for a little fly down into the wilds of Bretonia's Border Space, Inverness, when I came across three Order Fighters and four Auxesian ships. They were all squawking about something, but I couldn't really understand because I had only come up for half of it. Apparently they were, uh...confronting Order ships because of the death of someone named "Jenkins"? I don't know. But they weren't very friendly until what seemed like their boss, Raven, showed up. There were no shots fired, save for being cruise disrupted by the Auxesians (Kally can confirm). A member of the Secondary Fleet engaged the Auxesians, but failed. Raven ejected from her ship and came back in a warship. For the most part, this chat turned less hostile thanks to Vizier-One and another member of the Secondary Fleet (not the one that attacked Auxesia). After a while, Kally and Vizier-One docked with the Atum. I stayed out for a bit and the Auxesians stopped a Gaian Guard shortly, before leaving themselves. After which, I took my own lead back to where I'm currently stationed."
Things have been idle within the training sessions, but when flying solo around Mu, several things have uh...happened. The first, being an Other appearing before me, smaller than a 'Purifier' but similar in power, much like a lesser mindnode. Anyway, uh...the Other attempted to extend the 'gift' of making me a Follower, and was then attacked by the gunboat patrols that return to Thebes. It retreated after considerable damage.
The second matter is a member of the secondary fleets approached me after a training course, claiming to have a tip about the Corsair Naval Fleets preparing to stage an attack on the Maltese within Alpha. While I doubt this mans claims, uh, it might be worth looking into.
