I never caught your name - or simply we were not introduced to ourselves. You may remember me as that lone LSF Guardian vessel around the Freeport 11 in Delta. The problem is, I'm no longer LSF agent - more likely a rogue agent in this case. After meeting with someone named Jessica Snow(?), I took a risky decision to leave Liberty for good and keep it low profile. You can say why it is really an issue for someone like me.
All this, because I have learnt that LSF was not even thinking about keeping me alive and pushed me into Omicrons on purpose, as they seemingly knew about the strange anomaly and I was sent to die. With shattered reputation with Lane Hackers and Liberty Security Force, it is pretty understandable why I simply left Liberty for good. Perhaps time would heal the memories of my double "betrayal" - at least in case of Hackers. Perhaps, after a few long years...
Now. I tried to contact our Order friend as well, name's Strom Thurmond. However, all I got as reply was an automated message - which I deducted means that the person behind that name is unavailable for time pretty close to eternity (in simpler words - dead). I'm not sure what to think about it nowadays. All I can think about is to contact someone I knew before.
As I said, I would be around Freeport 11 or around the Edge Worlds for now, time to time hitting certain places around House Space. Well, for now I'm just around Freeport 11, as I am going to assemble the exploration team, seeing no other way to do anything with my current renegade status. I'm awaiting a few replies, including your own.

ID:Ezrael Vertiga Location:Core Mako Battleship "Apahanta", Omicron Rho Subject:About THAT incident ENCRYPTION:PIECE OF CAKE FOR A HACKER
Oh, believe me, I remember you.
I am Ezrael Vertiga, Captain of Core Mercenery Battleship "Apahanta". Sorry I forgot to introduce myself.
Oh boy, that was a sad day in Delta. Those AI drones, right? Shot down one snub after another. The Zoner lady Natasha Kurylenko and I tried to capture as many escape pods as possible, but in the end, that Order pilot didn't make it. It saddens me. Usually, the most pilots are able to escape death thanks to those very safe escape pods, but those AI weapons hit it so hard, he instantly died. It's a shame with those AI ships. Usually they have a good reason to attack, but those seem to have been manipulated in some way. That never happened before, at least to me. I know several AI ships, even a harvester cruiser, which were peaceful and able to communicate in a human-ish way.
Anyway, those AI drones noticed us, trying to rescue those pods, and decided to open fire at my ship. They forced us to do an emergency docking at Freeport 11 and also shot down Kurylenko's fighter. They were simply too swift for our Solaris and Flak guns. Just three drones, outmatching a Core Battleship... I'm lucky Nodtviet didn't hear about that.
Whatever.
You know, my ship was recently damaged in a battle with some nomad capital ships in the Kiribati Field near the freeport. Those mechanics at Alabama Ship Yard are doing their best to fix everything. I guess me and my crew can patrol Delta in a few hours again. It's our main task here, for now. To be honest, I don't care if you are or were a lane hacker, LSF or else. I welcome any human and AI that behaves peacefully in the omicrons. You know, I'm here in the omicrons to defend Yaren Base, Battleship Bellona and Freeport 11 in case of nomad attacks. I'm not here to fight humans... until it's inevitable.
So, I guess we will see each other out there. Try to stay alive!
