Following reception of the distress signal transmitted by the OAV Sekhet Aaru, the Unto Nightfall deployed to the Kepler system from whence the signal was calculated to have originated. On February 27th, we encountered the Overwatch vessel OCV Khem by Ames Research Station and were informed that she, too, had rerouted to investigate the distress signal. Her commanding officer and I agreed to cooperate in this matter.
Following twenty-four hours of fruitless search for the Sekhet Aaru, I contacted the Xeno Alliance for assistance.
Today, March 2nd, at 1451 SMT, we received a message from the Alliance vessel White Sands. They reported to have found the Sekhet Aaru at coordinates F7 in the Kepler system. The Unto Nightfall made best speed to their location, where we were joined by the Alliance fighter Phantom 0. The White Sands further reported that the Technocracy of Auxesia had beaten us to the Sekhet Aaru, having found the ACV Eidolon Wraith already making contact with the lost ship.
The Sekhet Aaru was badly damaged. Its weapons, shield and sensor systems, and drives were all offline. Hull integrity had deteriorated to critical levels. Contact was established with the individual Ka, suspected to be a shipboard AI system. Ka reported that the crew of two - made up of an Agent Ba and itself - were in good health but unable to disembark from the vessel.
I attempted to convince the present Auxesians to leave the Sekhet Aaru to the Order - these requests were, unsurprisingly, disregarded.
Following brief deliberation with the present Xenos, I intended to have the Unto Nightfall come alongside and tow the Sekhet Aaru from her location to Ames Research Station for basic evaluation and repairs, then on to the Xeno base Fort Ramsey in Ontario for proper inspection. However, before we could act on this plan, the Eidolon Wraith opened fire on us, damaging our engines. The Xenos engaged the Auxesian warship while the Unto Nightfall distanced herself from the Sekhet Aaru to avoid the ship taking any further weapons fire. Our intention was to come about and engage the Eidolon Wraith to secure the Sekhet Aaru, however, the sudden appearance of the infested warship Ki'Shar immediately off our starboard rendered the situation untenable.
I gave the order for the Xenos to target and and destroy the Sekhet Aaru in order to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Technocracy or the Nomads. The Xenos scuttled the vessel immediately and joined us in our retreat to Fort Ramsey. The fate of the Sekhet Aaru's crew of two is unknown, however we presume both Agent Ba and Ka KIA.
Superficial scans of the Sekhet Aaru and communications logs from the Unto Nightfall as well as a report forwarded to Section 8 by the captain of the White Sands are attached to this report. While we cannot verify all claims made in Henry Stracke's report, its contents are worrying and should be further analyzed.
[02.03.2023 14:51:02] XA-White.Sands: We have a problem.
[02.03.2023 14:51:17] XA-Phantom.0: Elaborate.
[02.03.2023 14:51:30] XA-White.Sands: I found the missing Order vessel. But I wasn't the first.
[02.03.2023 14:51:32] XA-Phantom.0: Foxtrot-7, reroute Nightfall.
[02.03.2023 14:51:44] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We have picked up your transponder's location and are en route.
[02.03.2023 14:51:45] XA-White.Sands: The Eidolon Wraith is here, and some gunship. I'm assuming it's with them.
[02.03.2023 14:52:00] Unto.Nightfall|S8: The Wraith? Fantastic.
[02.03.2023 14:52:11] XA-Phantom.0: Engagement is authorized, prepared to act with what's available.
[02.03.2023 14:52:18] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We are not equipped to take that ship on.
[02.03.2023 14:52:30] XA-Phantom.0: I have orders to secure that vessel.
[02.03.2023 14:52:34] XA-Phantom.0: I will comply with my directive.
[02.03.2023 14:52:46] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Your dedication is appreciated.
[02.03.2023 14:53:01] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: The current number of lifeforms onboard is zero, aside from myself and Agent ba

[02.03.2023 14:53:41] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Medical aid will not be necessary, though the offer is appreciated
[02.03.2023 14:54:02] XA-Phantom.0: Order Vessel, we advise extending no cooperation to the Technocrat.
[02.03.2023 14:54:20] XA-Phantom.0: We are here under a directive to ensure your vessel is secured.
[02.03.2023 14:54:22] XA-White.Sands: I don't know how much of a choice they'll be given...
[02.03.2023 14:54:31] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: And thus risking further contamination?
[02.03.2023 14:54:38] XA-Phantom.0: I have my directive.
[02.03.2023 14:54:42] XA-Phantom.0: You will either desist or die.
[02.03.2023 14:54:54] XA-Phantom.0: I have already alerted local patrols, your exposure window is closing.
[02.03.2023 14:54:55] Cloaking device off
[02.03.2023 14:55:00] XA-Phantom.0: Consider your options, Technocrat.
[02.03.2023 14:55:10] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: You lack the amenities to resolve this problem.
[02.03.2023 14:55:11] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Sekhet Aaru, this is the Unto Nightfall.
[02.03.2023 14:55:16] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: The radioactive damage has been great.
[02.03.2023 14:55:27] XA-Phantom.0: You will either desist or die.
[02.03.2023 14:55:33] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: But if you wish to insist on blinding yourself with politics, we can continue on that trend.
[02.03.2023 14:55:38] Uzume-[Fae: Now that's quite a threat to speak here.
[02.03.2023 14:55:57] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Operator to Ka, we suggest you do not attempt to restore the vessel, you lack the resources to restore essential

[02.03.2023 14:56:12] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Auxesians, this is an Order matter. We will take it from here.
[02.03.2023 14:56:43] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: It has fallen out of your jurisdiction since the involvement of extraterrestial entities. [02.03.2023 14:56:43] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Can we hope for any reinforcements?
[02.03.2023 14:56:47] XA-Phantom.0: On route.
[02.03.2023 14:56:59] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: I fail to see how that impacts our jurisdiction.
[02.03.2023 14:56:59] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Particularly those of a hyperspatial nature.
[02.03.2023 14:57:21] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: I also fail to see how it places the matter in -your- jurisdiction. [02.03.2023 14:57:38] XA-White.Sands: Something is very wrong with that liner. Their internal computer is apparently five years out of date.
[02.03.2023 14:57:40] XA-Phantom.0: Typical Technocrat agitprop.
[02.03.2023 14:57:46] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: We are more appropriately equipped for such responses and have studied it far longer than you have.
[02.03.2023 14:57:50] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Repeating transmission to Ka.
[02.03.2023 14:58:01] XA-Phantom.0: Belay those instructions Order vessel.
[02.03.2023 14:58:08] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: I advise you head for the pods and seek extraction via your "allies"
[02.03.2023 14:58:09] XA-Phantom.0: You are to comply with the allied force presence.
[02.03.2023 14:58:12] XA-Phantom.0: Confirm.
[02.03.2023 14:58:12] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: The Sekhet Aaru is property of the Order and will be reclaimed by the Order accordingly.
[02.03.2023 14:58:19] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Property, aer
[02.03.2023 14:58:23] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: are they?
[02.03.2023 14:58:37] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Sekhet Aaru, disregard any instructions received by the Auxesians. [02.03.2023 14:58:42] XA-Phantom.0: Nightfall, draw fire from the Wraith and maintain range, we will dispatch the gunship and refocus to target the warship.
[02.03.2023 14:59:08] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We will avoid hostilities unless absolutely necessary.
[02.03.2023 14:59:10] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Messages are acknowledged...we are having some trouble processing. The array is showing as damaged and the signal
[02.03.2023 14:59:12] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: is weak [02.03.2023 14:59:23] XA-White.Sands: I do not favor our chances with current forces.
[02.03.2023 14:59:31] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Agreed.
[02.03.2023 14:59:38] XA-Phantom.0: I repeat, Order Vessel readback instructions.
[02.03.2023 14:59:38] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Ka, you must extract soon. You do not have the resources to repair and maintain that vessel.

[02.03.2023 15:01:22] XA-Phantom.0: This situation is too volatile to contain.
[02.03.2023 15:01:26] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Ames...you mean Ames research station? Processing...we are in the kepler system. [02.03.2023 15:01:36] XA-Phantom.0: We must enforce quarantine.
[02.03.2023 15:01:44] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Engaging in combat will put the Sekhet Aaru at risk.
[02.03.2023 15:01:53] XA-Phantom.0: The Sekhet Aaru must be destroyed.
[02.03.2023 15:01:56] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Ka, verify, when you fell out of the breach, did any other object fall out with you?
[02.03.2023 15:02:11] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: The escape pods are not suitable. Myself and Agent Ba are...physically integrated into the ship [02.03.2023 15:02:13] Unto.Nightfall|S8: I have authority over this situation, Phantom 0.

The second attempt was a success. Or a mixed success, anyway.
Again with the White Sands, we ran a search pattern and this time rather swiftly found the missing vessel, a liner as it turned out. It was in bad shape, most systems offline, and worse still, we weren't the first to come upon them.
The Eidolon Wraith, always happy to make an inconvenient appearance had found them before. They were accompanied by a freelancer gunship, callsign Uzume. It's unclear if they arrived together, but they later cooperated against us.
Being alone initially, I obviously had no way to extract the derelict from the situation by force. I ascertained that virtually all of their systems were offline, and they would have to be towed or repaired. A short while after I arrived, I thankfully did receive backup, Phantom Zero and Section 8's Unto Nightfall arriving.
The Auxo seemingly suspected alien involvement, and it soon became clear why: The behavior of the crew, of which there were apparently only two members, was erratic and disturbing. They were apparently unaware of the Technocracy's existence, and asked for the date, upon which they revealed that their own computer listed as March 2nd, 825. Alien involvement in the situation became clear when a drone of the type seen occasionally, particularly around the Barrier border worlds appeared.
We were able to drive it away swiftly.
Eventually, we received news that Blacktail and the Roanoke would be moving in, which would mean the upper hand against the Wraith and the gunboat. Before they could arrive though, the Wraith opened fire upon the Unto Nightfall, assisted by the freelancer.
However, before we could even really adjust to the combat situation, what appeared to be a Valor-class Gallic battleship uncloaked in the midst of it!
As Section 8 later informed me, this one was a well-known infected warship - more than that it seems, as it had what appeared to be Nomad tissue growing out of it visibly.
With the situation quickly spiraling out of control, we decided to destroy the liner to avoid its capture by enemies, and bailed on the whole mess. Everyone made it out without significant damage.
I'll be honest, I'm not sure what to make of the whole thing. I'm attaching the logs below, which I'll have to go through again myself if I hope to glean anything of value from the whole encounter.
I'm also forwarding this message to Section 8, per their request.

[02.03.2023 14:48:13] XA-White.Sands: Stracke: Hm. This is less than ideal.
[02.03.2023 14:48:40] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: In addition, please verify if you have witnessed any electromagnetic anomalies such as "moving beings of light"
[02.03.2023 14:48:44] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: I can attempt to recover the data once repairs are complete. Current access is impossible due to damage. I am locked out of
[02.03.2023 14:49:00] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: the vessel's higher priority systems
[02.03.2023 14:49:30] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Please confirm your contamination status. Did you - or did you not - come into contact with "beings of pure metaphysical l
[02.03.2023 14:49:32] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: light. "
[02.03.2023 14:49:41] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Moving beings of light
[02.03.2023 14:49:54] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Correct. We do not refer to your average Nomad warform.
[02.03.2023 14:50:17] Death: Glassfin was put out of action by Heimer.Weiss (Gun).
[02.03.2023 14:50:41] XA-White.Sands: Stracke: Sekhet Aaru, what's your mechanical status? Are your engines operational?
[02.03.2023 14:50:44] Death: Heimer.Weiss suffered a self-inflicted catastrophic decompression.
[02.03.2023 14:50:45] /fi xa-
[02.03.2023 14:50:46] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: If you have come into contact with such ... entities, I would recommend that you come with us to remove your contamination
[02.03.2023 14:50:47] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: status.
[02.03.2023 14:50:57] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Your 'colleagues' might kill you instead of attempting to remove the mark.
[02.03.2023 14:50:58] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: No such data is present in the lower priority systems...this unit has not witnessed any such, though Agent Ba
[02.03.2023 14:51:01] XA-White.Sands: We have a problem.
[02.03.2023 14:51:12] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: may have. Unfortunately, Agent Ba is unable to communicate at this time
[02.03.2023 14:51:16] XA-Phantom.0: Elaborate.
[02.03.2023 14:51:28] XA-White.Sands: I found the missing Order vessel. But I wasn't the first.
[02.03.2023 14:51:31] XA-Phantom.0: Foxtrot-7, reroute Nightfall.
[02.03.2023 14:51:41] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Establishing Link...ship's drives are currently offline. However, I surmise that
[02.03.2023 14:51:43] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We have picked up your transponder's location and are en route.
[02.03.2023 14:51:44] XA-White.Sands: The Eidolon Wraith is here, and some gunship. I'm assuming it's with them.
[02.03.2023 14:51:47] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: How many life-forms are still alive on the vessel? We're prepping an emergency response pod for medical goods.
[02.03.2023 14:51:59] Unto.Nightfall|S8: The Wraith? Fantastic.
[02.03.2023 14:52:00] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: with a correct application of nanobots, we will be able to restore partial functionality
[02.03.2023 14:52:10] XA-Phantom.0: Engagement is authorized, prepared to act with what's available.
[02.03.2023 14:52:17] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We are not equipped to take that ship on.
[02.03.2023 14:52:29] XA-Phantom.0: I have orders to secure that vessel.
[02.03.2023 14:52:30] XA-White.Sands: Roger. We'd like to try to extract you from this....situation, but we don't have the firepower right now.
[02.03.2023 14:52:33] XA-Phantom.0: I will comply with my directive.
[02.03.2023 14:52:45] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Your dedication is appreciated.
[02.03.2023 14:53:00] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: The current number of lifeforms onboard is zero, aside from myself and Agent ba
[02.03.2023 14:53:19] XA-White.Sands: The Aaru is immobile. The White Sands could tow it, but....well, you can see the problem with that.
[02.03.2023 14:53:31] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: There are only two survivors?
[02.03.2023 14:53:34] XA-Phantom.0: We are not authorized to tow.
[02.03.2023 14:53:40] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Medical aid will not be necessary, though the offer is appreciated
[02.03.2023 14:54:01] XA-Phantom.0: Order Vessel, we advise extending no cooperation to the Technocrat.
[02.03.2023 14:54:19] XA-Phantom.0: We are here under a directive to ensure your vessel is secured.
[02.03.2023 14:54:19] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: I must query...are we in danger? This 'Technocracy' vessel, we do not recognise it
[02.03.2023 14:54:21] XA-White.Sands: I don't know how much of a choice they'll be given...
[02.03.2023 14:54:30] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: And thus risking further contamination?
[02.03.2023 14:54:37] XA-Phantom.0: I have my directive.
[02.03.2023 14:54:41] XA-Phantom.0: You will either desist or die.
[02.03.2023 14:54:53] XA-Phantom.0: I have already alerted local patrols, your exposure window is closing.
[02.03.2023 14:54:53] XA-White.Sands: Well, the Technocracy are deathly enemies of the Order, so yes. You are definitely in danger.
[02.03.2023 14:54:59] XA-Phantom.0: Consider your options, Technocrat.
[02.03.2023 14:54:59] XA-White.Sands: Do not, whatever you do, allow them to board.
[02.03.2023 14:55:08] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: You lack the amenities to resolve this problem.
[02.03.2023 14:55:10] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Sekhet Aaru, this is the Unto Nightfall.
[02.03.2023 14:55:14] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: The radioactive damage has been great.
[02.03.2023 14:55:26] XA-Phantom.0: You will either desist or die.
[02.03.2023 14:55:32] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: But if you wish to insist on blinding yourself with politics, we can continue on that trend.
[02.03.2023 14:55:36] Uzume-[Fae: Now that's quite a threat to speak here.
[02.03.2023 14:55:46] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: This unit is having trouble...there are no logs on this faction
[02.03.2023 14:55:49] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Wait.
[02.03.2023 14:55:56] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Operator to Ka, we suggest you do not attempt to restore the vessel, you lack the resources to restore essential
[02.03.2023 14:55:56] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Confirm date.
[02.03.2023 14:55:58] XA-White.Sands: Just how long have you been missing...?
[02.03.2023 14:56:02] Death: Scorpiano was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[02.03.2023 14:56:06] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: components and lack the crew for appropriate operation.
[02.03.2023 14:56:11] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Auxesians, this is an Order matter. We will take it from here.
[02.03.2023 14:56:15] XA-White.Sands: March 2nd, 830.
[02.03.2023 14:56:42] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: It has fallen out of your jurisdiction since the involvement of extraterrestial entities.
[02.03.2023 14:56:42] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Can we hope for any reinforcements?
[02.03.2023 14:56:46] XA-Phantom.0: On route.
[02.03.2023 14:56:50] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: That does not compute. Internal chronometer reads 2nd March, 825
[02.03.2023 14:56:58] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: I fail to see how that impacts our jurisdiction.
[02.03.2023 14:56:58] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Particularly those of a hyperspatial nature.
[02.03.2023 14:57:11] XA-White.Sands: That is deeply concerning. We'll have to look into that when at a safe port.
[02.03.2023 14:57:20] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: I also fail to see how it places the matter in -your- jurisdiction.
[02.03.2023 14:57:37] XA-White.Sands: Something is very wrong with that liner. Their internal computer is apparently five years out of date.
[02.03.2023 14:57:39] XA-Phantom.0: Typical Technocrat agitprop.
[02.03.2023 14:57:45] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: We are more appropriately equipped for such responses and have studied it far longer than you have.
[02.03.2023 14:57:49] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Repeating transmission to Ka.
[02.03.2023 14:58:00] XA-Phantom.0: Belay those instructions Order vessel.
[02.03.2023 14:58:07] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: I advise you head for the pods and seek extraction via your "allies"
[02.03.2023 14:58:08] XA-Phantom.0: You are to comply with the allied force presence.
[02.03.2023 14:58:11] XA-Phantom.0: Confirm.
[02.03.2023 14:58:11] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: The Sekhet Aaru is property of the Order and will be reclaimed by the Order accordingly.
[02.03.2023 14:58:18] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Property, aer
[02.03.2023 14:58:22] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: are they?
[02.03.2023 14:58:36] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Sekhet Aaru, disregard any instructions received by the Auxesians.
[02.03.2023 14:58:41] XA-Phantom.0: Nightfall, draw fire from the Wraith and maintain range, we will dispatch the gunship and refocus to target the warship.
[02.03.2023 14:59:07] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We will avoid hostilities unless absolutely necessary.
[02.03.2023 14:59:09] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Messages are acknowledged...we are having some trouble processing. The array is showing as damaged and the signal
[02.03.2023 14:59:11] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: is weak
[02.03.2023 14:59:22] XA-White.Sands: I do not favor our chances with current forces.
[02.03.2023 14:59:30] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Agreed.
[02.03.2023 14:59:37] XA-Phantom.0: I repeat, Order Vessel readback instructions.
[02.03.2023 14:59:37] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Ka, you must extract soon. You do not have the resources to repair and maintain that vessel.
[02.03.2023 14:59:58] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: <:: Attuning system output... ::>
[02.03.2023 15:00:07] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Sekhet Aaru, please transmit a status report.
[02.03.2023 15:00:08] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Unfortunately this unit cannot extract, nor can Agent Ba
[02.03.2023 15:00:17] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: You do not have access to any escape pods?
[02.03.2023 15:00:33] XA-White.Sands: Stracke: Aaru, can you ping Ames? Try to sync your systems to their standard.
[02.03.2023 15:01:00] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Transmitting damage report. Weapons Offline. Shields Offline. Sensors Offline. Drives Offline.
[02.03.2023 15:01:13] XA-Phantom.0: I urge the Commander's directive.
[02.03.2023 15:01:21] XA-Phantom.0: This situation is too volatile to contain.
[02.03.2023 15:01:25] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Ames...you mean Ames research station? Processing...we are in the kepler system.
[02.03.2023 15:01:35] XA-Phantom.0: We must enforce quarantine.
[02.03.2023 15:01:43] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Engaging in combat will put the Sekhet Aaru at risk.
[02.03.2023 15:01:52] XA-Phantom.0: The Sekhet Aaru must be destroyed.
[02.03.2023 15:01:55] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Ka, verify, when you fell out of the breach, did any other object fall out with you?
[02.03.2023 15:02:10] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: The escape pods are not suitable. Myself and Agent Ba are...physically integrated into the ship
[02.03.2023 15:02:12] Unto.Nightfall|S8: I have authority over this situation, Phantom 0.
[02.03.2023 15:02:17] XA-Phantom.0: [...]
[02.03.2023 15:02:23] Uzume-[Fae: I've got a contact, ten clicks away from us.
[02.03.2023 15:02:35] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Confirmed.
[02.03.2023 15:02:37] XA-Phantom.0: I reiterate.
[02.03.2023 15:02:46] XA-Phantom.0: We will be unable to repel the enemy force.
[02.03.2023 15:02:46] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Wild! Gunnery, prepare to fire.
[02.03.2023 15:02:49] XA-White.Sands: Stracke: Hostile reading, unrecognized signature.
[02.03.2023 15:02:56] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: White Sands, Phantom 0, prepare to engage.
[02.03.2023 15:02:59] XA-Phantom.0: Fire in defense of allied force.
[02.03.2023 15:02:59] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: I can access video feeds. One moment.
[02.03.2023 15:03:03] XA-Phantom.0 has set Tkliar as group target.
[02.03.2023 15:03:08] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Protect the Sekhet Aaru at all costs.
[02.03.2023 15:03:09] XA-White.Sands: Stracke: Copy that.
[02.03.2023 15:03:09] XA-Phantom.0: Weapons are free.
[02.03.2023 15:03:16] XA-'Blacktail': Some timing.
[02.03.2023 15:03:33] Tkliar: Your threat to the Light is not well timed. We sense the Light amongst you.
[02.03.2023 15:03:42] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Auxesians, will you assist?
[02.03.2023 15:03:49] Tkliar: Why this humans are shooting at us?
[02.03.2023 15:03:53] XA-'Blacktail': Taking the signal. Moving in.
[02.03.2023 15:04:03] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: If you find yourself incapable of dealing with one mere Gunboat, with a Cruiser class, then you truly are ill-fit.
[02.03.2023 15:04:09] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Attempting to activate weapons...attempt #1 failed. Attempt #2 failed.
[02.03.2023 15:04:23] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Hesitant. No surprise there.
[02.03.2023 15:04:27] Tkliar: This occurance will be investigated.
[02.03.2023 15:04:42] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Sekhet Aaru, we are coming alongside you.
[02.03.2023 15:04:54] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Likewise, you showed restraint. How curious you let the Xenos go first.
[02.03.2023 15:05:00] Tkliar: Chaos will be sought onto Xenos.
[02.03.2023 15:05:08] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: As sensors are offline, I cannot confirm
[02.03.2023 15:05:40] 2023-03-02 15:05:40 SMT Traffic control alert: Tkliar has requested to dock
[02.03.2023 15:05:50] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Report on the status of your crew.
[02.03.2023 15:05:55] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: They are deceased.
[02.03.2023 15:06:08] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: I did not ask from a report from you, Auxesian.
[02.03.2023 15:06:16] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Accessing memory...data of jumphole transit is corrupted, but
[02.03.2023 15:06:17] XA-Phantom.0: Capital-class asset on route.
[02.03.2023 15:06:32] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: You failed to listen.
[02.03.2023 15:06:34] Tip: Are you new to our server? Introduce yourself on our forums in the Welcome Section at Discoverygc.com
[02.03.2023 15:06:38] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Once it arrives, prepare to engage the Wraith and its freelance escort.
[02.03.2023 15:06:41] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: gravimetric anomalies accounted for, unknown contact in slipstream detected.
[02.03.2023 15:06:45] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We will attempt to tow the Sekhet Aaru.
[02.03.2023 15:06:53] XA-White.Sands: Roger.
[02.03.2023 15:06:56] XA-Phantom.0: It would be helpful if you coordinated fire first.
[02.03.2023 15:07:05] XA-Phantom.0: You will be too exposed to tow.
[02.03.2023 15:07:08] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: To Unto Nightfall, crew compliment is at full
[02.03.2023 15:07:12] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Ka, where is your central unit located?
[02.03.2023 15:07:14] FRS-Roanoke: RO: ETA 5 minutes.
[02.03.2023 15:07:26] XA-Phantom.0: Make it 3, Roanoke actual.
[02.03.2023 15:07:31] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: How many crew, Sekhet Aaru?
[02.03.2023 15:07:55] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Two crew. Myself and Agent Ba.
[02.03.2023 15:08:17] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Evacuation of the vessel is not currently possible, correct?
[02.03.2023 15:08:31] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Confirmed.
[02.03.2023 15:08:54] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Stand by, Sekhet Aaru.
[02.03.2023 15:09:01] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: <:: Parameters accepted. Directive: Extract unit Ba and Ka. ::>
[02.03.2023 15:09:06] XA-Phantom.0 has set A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith as group target.
[02.03.2023 15:09:09] Uzume-[Fae: So. Who's ready for escort duty?
[02.03.2023 15:09:17] XA-Phantom.0 has set A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith as group target.
[02.03.2023 15:09:19] XA-White.Sands: Stracke: Oh, we're starting.
[02.03.2023 15:09:23] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Finish them.
[02.03.2023 15:09:24] XA-Phantom.0: Fire in defense.
[02.03.2023 15:09:28] XA-'Blacktail': Roger.
[02.03.2023 15:09:29] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: What is going on?
[02.03.2023 15:09:32] XA-'Blacktail': Locked.
[02.03.2023 15:09:42] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Hawkins: Sekhet Aaru, the Auxesians have opened fire.
[02.03.2023 15:09:52] K'Hara|Ki'Shar: "And so we are here."
[02.03.2023 15:09:54] Uzume-[Fae: I need some cash. Who can hire me?
[02.03.2023 15:10:06] FRS-Roanoke: RO: We are in the system, what is your coordinates?
[02.03.2023 15:10:06] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: We shall.
[02.03.2023 15:10:16] Uzume-[Fae: Very well. I'll take up your offer, Eidolon Wraith.
[02.03.2023 15:10:16] XA-White.Sands: F6
[02.03.2023 15:10:23] OAV-Sekhet.Aaru: Ka: Warning, detecting additional breaches in the hull. Are we being fired upon?
[02.03.2023 15:10:31] Uzume-[Fae: Preparing weapons! Protecting the Auxo vessel!
[02.03.2023 15:10:37] XA-Phantom.0: We cannot repel this force.
[02.03.2023 15:10:45] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Agreed.
[02.03.2023 15:10:47] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Ka, export your central unit to a remote databank unit for extraction. Is your system capable of such?
[02.03.2023 15:10:50] XA-Phantom.0: Blacktail.
[02.03.2023 15:10:54] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Destroy the Sekhet Aaru and disengage.
[02.03.2023 15:11:01] XA-White.Sands: Stracke: What in the world is that....?
[02.03.2023 15:11:03] FRS-Roanoke: E: How many targets?
[02.03.2023 15:11:03] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: Unfortunately, we are all surrounded by a hostile entity, your time is ... exceptionally limited.
[02.03.2023 15:11:03] XA-Phantom.0: Retarget.
[02.03.2023 15:11:07] XA-Phantom.0: Refocus targets.
[02.03.2023 15:11:13] XA-'Blacktail': Affirmative, new lock coming in.
[02.03.2023 15:11:21] K'Hara|Ki'Shar: "Stay away."
[02.03.2023 15:11:22] XA-'Blacktail': Got it. Launch.
[02.03.2023 15:11:29] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Roanoke, targets are a Core battlecruiser and an infected Valor-class battleship.
[02.03.2023 15:11:29] Death: OAV-Sekhet.Aaru was put out of action by XA-'Blacktail' (Missile/Torpedo).
[02.03.2023 15:11:33] K'Hara|Ki'Shar: "Or suffer your consequences."
[02.03.2023 15:11:38] XA-Phantom.0: Bug out.
[02.03.2023 15:11:47] FRS-Roanoke: E: A ***** Valor?
[02.03.2023 15:11:56] A/)-ACV-Eidolon.Wraith: O: That resolves that. Sweep for remains, get away from that abomination.
[02.03.2023 15:12:22] XA-Phantom.0: Return to base.
[02.03.2023 15:12:23] Unto.Nightfall|S8: The Unto Nightfall is en route to Ramsey. We took damage to our engines and require repairs.
[02.03.2023 15:12:43] XA-Phantom.0: You are pre-authorized to do so.
[02.03.2023 15:12:55] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We will inform Overwatch of what happened here. If you have any guncam footage, transfer it. Please.
[02.03.2023 15:13:06] XA-Phantom.0: Negative, blackbox only.
[02.03.2023 15:13:21] XA-White.Sands: I have some images from the early stages of the encounter.
[02.03.2023 15:13:32] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Anything you have.
[02.03.2023 15:13:35] Irony: ?: ooh..that`s a crowd...
[02.03.2023 15:13:56] XA-'Blacktail': Got target confirmations, can't promise any more with the background we're rolled up in here.
[02.03.2023 15:14:16] XA-Phantom.0: I would recommend the Commander's initiatives take priority in any further deployment.
[02.03.2023 15:14:24] XA-Phantom.0: This was a needless risk to personnel and assets.
[02.03.2023 15:14:31] XA-Phantom.0: Roanoke, confirm safe departure.
[02.03.2023 15:14:41] FRS-Roanoke: E: Safe and sound.
[02.03.2023 15:14:53] Unto.Nightfall|S8: This operation will be discussed with the Commander.
[02.03.2023 15:15:13] XA-White.Sands: This will be one confusing report to write...
[02.03.2023 15:15:15] XA-Phantom.0: I do not endorse politics, only strategic sense.
[02.03.2023 15:15:28] XA-Phantom.0: And the Commander's saw us prevail in containing Alberta.
[02.03.2023 15:16:39] FRS-Roanoke: E: I have so many questions.
[02.03.2023 15:17:00] FRS-Roanoke: E: Why was an infected Valor in there, a gallic warship?
[02.03.2023 15:17:23] Unto.Nightfall|S8: The Ki'shar is a known infected vessel. Extremely dangerous.
[02.03.2023 15:17:43] FRS-Roanoke: E: And what about the Core warship?
[02.03.2023 15:17:46] XA-White.Sands: At least everyone except our actual target made it out alright.
[02.03.2023 15:18:08] Unto.Nightfall|S8: The Eidolon Wraith is one of the Technocracy's primary capital assets.
[02.03.2023 15:18:25] FRS-Roanoke: E: Ah, the Technofreaks and infected ships. Makes sense.
[02.03.2023 15:18:30] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Indeed.
[02.03.2023 15:18:47] Unto.Nightfall|S8: It seems they are no longer afraid of showing their allegiance off in public.
[02.03.2023 15:19:11] FRS-Roanoke: E: So... Boss was right.
[02.03.2023 15:19:23] XA-Phantom.0: The Commander has seldom been wrong strategically.
[02.03.2023 15:19:39] FRS-Roanoke: E: No need to brush his ego, he ain't here.
[02.03.2023 15:19:49] XA-White.Sands: It's not entirely clear what the Auxesians' intent towards the lost liner was.
[02.03.2023 15:19:52] XA-Phantom.0: Not an accolade, fact.
[02.03.2023 15:19:55] XA-White.Sands: I'll have to review the logs in full.
[02.03.2023 15:20:04] XA-Phantom.0: Technocrat intent is clear.
[02.03.2023 15:20:13] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Anything you can parse from your logs will be of great interest to us, White Sands.
[02.03.2023 15:20:21] XA-Phantom.0: Perpetuate agitprop, or subvert allied assets.
[02.03.2023 15:20:42] FRS-Roanoke: E: Just murder those assholes.
[02.03.2023 15:20:43] XA-White.Sands: I will forward my report to you.
[02.03.2023 15:20:50] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Very good.
[02.03.2023 15:21:07] XA-Phantom.0: Offensive action against Technocrat vessels is not only authorized but encouraged.
[02.03.2023 15:21:16] XA-Phantom.0: But the instant engagement was not containable.
[02.03.2023 15:21:39] FRS-Roanoke: E: Yeah, no point of commiting suicide.
[02.03.2023 15:21:41] Unto.Nightfall|S8: We will advise Overwatch to deploy assets to Kepler and the surrounding region.
[02.03.2023 15:22:06] Unto.Nightfall|S8: It is likely that the Auxesians will be able to recover valuable data from the Sekhet Aaru's remains.
[02.03.2023 15:22:12] XA-Phantom.0: Overwatch attitude not favorable to proper containment.
[02.03.2023 15:22:18] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Perhaps a joint operation will succeed in recovering such data.
[02.03.2023 15:22:22] XA-Phantom.0: The Commander petitioned their equipment in blockading Inverness.
[02.03.2023 15:22:34] XA-Phantom.0: They acknowledged his request. No further.
[02.03.2023 15:23:01] FRS-Roanoke: E: Well, perhaps your local friendly agents will have more luck.
[02.03.2023 15:23:09] XA-White.Sands: Blockades are virtually never worth the expenditure in resources.
[02.03.2023 15:23:32] XA-Phantom.0: Persistent blockading crippled Legion effectiveness and strike distance.
[02.03.2023 15:23:36] FRS-Roanoke: E: Depends on the circumstances.
[02.03.2023 15:24:32] XA-Phantom.0: Denial of support from foreign corporation, designator ALG and various external interests ensured an unstable Insurgency.
[02.03.2023 15:24:51] XA-Phantom.0: And an unstable Insurgency proved unable to mount proper resistance.
[02.03.2023 15:25:06] FRS-Roanoke: E: Luckily, we don't have to worry about Inverness. There are plenty of tin soldiers in Coronado to clean it instead.
[02.03.2023 15:25:13] XA-White.Sands: Well, the Insurgency didn't really have a sustainable economy to begin with. But that's another story.
[02.03.2023 15:25:31] XA-Phantom.0: Coronado is a viable equalizer.
[02.03.2023 15:25:46] FRS-Roanoke: E: I never heard about a profitable navy. Soldiers are always a money sink.
[02.03.2023 15:26:13] XA-White.Sands: Which will become a problem if you're trying to run a nation that's really just a military.
[02.03.2023 15:26:39] XA-Phantom.0: Topic merits no further conversation.
[02.03.2023 15:27:09] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Phantom 0, I would request that Phantom Wing redoubles its patrols of Kepler.
[02.03.2023 15:27:21] XA-Phantom.0: Unable.
[02.03.2023 15:27:30] XA-Phantom.0: Wing is deployed at capacity.
[02.03.2023 15:27:55] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Then I will petition the Commander to deploy additional units to assist you with your assignment.
[02.03.2023 15:28:08] FRS-Roanoke: E: Oh, if it isn't Nathan himself. Good morning sunshine.
[02.03.2023 15:28:09] XA-Phantom.0: Further untenable due to external committments.
[02.03.2023 15:28:30] XA-Phantom.0: The Commander has partitioned forces to theatres of interest to the LFR.
[02.03.2023 15:28:41] XA-Phantom.0: Reallocation would compromise those interests.
[02.03.2023 15:28:58] FRS-Roanoke: E: They have been trying to save an Order vessel.
[02.03.2023 15:29:09] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Unsuccessfully.
[02.03.2023 15:29:17] FRS-Roanoke: E: They had to scuttle it because of the Technocrats and infected vessel nearby.
[02.03.2023 15:29:21] XA-Phantom.0: Sanitation directive was executed successfully.
[02.03.2023 15:29:37] XA-Phantom.0: Ironic, previously cited waste processing coroporation..
[02.03.2023 15:29:48] XA-White.Sands: It's the best we could make of the situation, I suppose.
[02.03.2023 15:29:53] XA-White.Sands: Being what it was.
[02.03.2023 15:29:55] Unto.Nightfall|S8: So it would seem.
[02.03.2023 15:30:03] XA-Nathan.Stillwater: I see.
[02.03.2023 15:30:21] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Section 8 appreciates the Alliance's assistance in the matter.
[02.03.2023 15:30:25] XA-White.Sands: Alright, I've reached my office. I have some writing to do.
[02.03.2023 15:30:49] 2023-03-02 15:30:49 SMT Traffic control alert: XA-White.Sands has requested to dock
[02.03.2023 15:30:53] XA-White.Sands: Take care.
[02.03.2023 15:30:59] Unto.Nightfall|S8: Likewise.
