Auxo and Wild Sighting in Sigma 15

This message is directed to the relevant Order commanders. I am submitting a report of a meeting between some high-profile individuals I encountered while visiting some of our friends in the Sigmas. In the attached communications logs, you will see some interesting and concerning insights into a couple of the notorious and secretive groups we’ve long been tracking. I’ve edited the comm log a bit to only include information that I deemed the most critical. If requested I can provide additional comm log entries backed up on my ship’s computer.

Any additional information on the people or topics mentioned below is most welcome.

__________________________________________________________________

A short summary of the encounter is as follows:
For a bit of background into the nature of this impromptu intelligence gathering mission, it started off with a trip in my personal vessel to Sigma 19 for a simple engine swap with the GMG. It was a fast and expertly done procedure, those mechanics on Ogashawa have always had a good rep for this kind of stuff. I stuck around for a while to test the new equipment in space around the gas miner, ensuring the engine was tuned to my liking. Satisfied, I departed through the Sigma 13 jump hole and set a heading for Sigma 15. Upon entering the system, I activated my ship’s cloaking device since Rheinland patrols have been frequent in the area as of late, and I didn’t much feel like getting stopped by one. I’ll make it to Bielefeld Base and rest up for a while, at least that was the plan.

Around 00:30, March 20 |
I stumble upon two Auxo agents, Lazurith and Crucible, spotted in the Sigma 15 system near Freeport 8. With them was a freelancer who goes by “Cherry Blossom”, her real name is unknown at this time (I advise you to take a special interest in this individual, as well as Cipriano Adimari who will appear later). I got in closer while cloaked for a detailed scan of each ship; nothing too out of the ordinary on them.
It is notable that while Cherry was talking with the two Auxo agents, she revealed that she and another Auxo agent known as “Revenant” appear to know each other quite well. Revenant’s whereabouts are also unknown. The other agents may know where they are, but these two decide not to expose this information.

00:36 |
The Auxo agent Leviathan makes an appearance and undocks from Freeport 8, apparently this one was busy with… “paperwork”… some extraneous banter ensues for a while. I acquire a scan of Leviathan’s ship. Again, nothing too out of the ordinary on board.

00:40 |
A former Outcast (later revealed to be Wild) shows up, an individual who goes by Cipriano Adimari. Apparently this one is also known by some of the Auxo agents as they exchange some friendly greetings. A scan of Cipriano is acquired, nothing interesting. It is interesting to note that this individual is catalogued in The Order Primary Fleet's database of known infected individuals, however the name is spelled wrong.

00:50 |
I listen in for a while longer before departing for Witchita station to replace my cloaking device batteries (Cipriano was too close to Bielefeld Base and I couldn’t risk getting noticed). To my disappointment, Witchita did not approve of my presence, so I set course for Petra Base. As I got near the base my cover may have been blown. My cloak was down and an Auxo leaving the area, Lazurith if I recall, most likely noticed me on their scanner. It’s a good thing there was still a little juice left in my cloak batteries; I was able to cloak back up and wait for this one to exit scanner range. Once the coast was clear I docked the station and got the batteries swapped out.
Concerned about the Auxo possibly searching for me, I made my return to the Freeport with the cloak on, and good thing too. On my way back I spotted one of the other Auxo agents, Crucible as I recall, leaving the area too. This was somewhere between the Bundschuh base and the Corsair base. They appeared to be heading for the Sigma 17 jump hole. I continued on back towards the freeport without incident.

00:59 |
I finally return to the location where the meeting is taking place. Made it back just in time too. Cipriano was inquiring with Leviathan about weapons that could “fully disable large warships,” specifically alien warforms. They reveal much, but were unfortunately cut off when a Rheinland Gunboat, U-66, approached from the tradelane at around 01:09 and began patrolling the area. Leviathan decides to depart at this point to meet back up with their comrades, but not before agreeing to discuss more about this topic with Cipriano at a later date and location.

01:10 |
Cipriano and Cherry are the only two left in the area, aside from U-66 still patrolling the system. No topics of interest were brought up.

01:23 |
Another character enters the scene, Red.Beetle-1. Some kind of robot or AI vessel from what I could gather. A detailed scan of the vessel was not obtained.
Beetle inquired with Cipriano about a colleague of Cipriano’s, Lucas Gerald. Beetle said he would reveal information “regarding Gallia and the ‘infiltrators’” if the location of Lucas was not given. This information about the “infiltrators” seemed sensitive to Cipriano, as evidenced by my aforementioned recording. 01:38, Cipriano complied with the Beetle and revealed that Lucas Gerald was in the taus or edge worlds at the time of speaking.
[See attached comm log 0.0.2]
Cipriano was no longer within scanner range of Bielefeld Base. I take a moment to dock and replace my cloak’s batteries again.

01:41 |
I return to my position after getting resupplied, and Beetle is on their way out of the area.
Beetle’s multiple uses of the word “yours” sparked curiosity in Cherry who assumes Cipriano to be a “Lightbringer,” one of the Wild. Cipriano confirms and that he is with the Slomon K’hara. Shortly after, and to my surprise, Cherry reveals she is a “Herald of the Lost Share.” From here the conversation gets a bit deeper and they shed some light on the plans of their “Elders,” tensions between their two groups, and their conflict with humanity.
[See attached comm log 0.0.3]

02:04 |
A tickle in my throat forces me to cough which ends up getting broadcast on the comm somehow. I must not have realized but at some point I left it open. A quick glance at the comm log confirms that my cough did indeed get broadcast to everyone in the general vicinity of me. I quickly made myself scarce and departed the system.
