Bonjour, monsieurs, this is agent Forlorn d'Autoine speaking.I have two important matters that I greatly desire to speak to you about.For security reasons, I rendered my location as ,,unknown" due to the risk of this message to be intercepted by any other entity.

Bien, let's start this.Yesterday, I planned to head on patrol in the Omicron Zeta system.I left Meskhenet Station and headed to the Jump Hole to Omicron Delta.On my way there though, I got strange readings by the time I reached sector E5.It was an unidentified ship.I closed on it, sending a hail message.No answer!Same even after the second hail I transmitted.I then broadcasted a message that I will be forced to use firepower if the pilot on the ship doesn't complies.Still no answer, and no movement, no hostility, nothing!I then though it would be wise to check the ship before firing, as clearly there is something strange going on.I closed on to like 100 M from the ship.It was a ,,Arrastra" Class Miner Vessel.Quite weird to see these kind of ships in the Omicrons.The ship has suffered lots of damage and it was covered in blaster marks, by the looks of it, I have reasons to believe that the blasters were of Nomad origins.
I decided to send a remote camera to check the interior of the ship.The attempt was then succesful and the camera managed to break trough and land in the cargo bay, the ship's security systems managed to secure the breach in the hull made by the camera soon after.
I controlled the camera to make it's way into the ship's cockpit.There, I saw lot's of debris scattered on the ground, and a body in the middle the room.I approached the body, which was impaled by some kind of metallic objects.I couldn't tell at that time if the person was dead or alive, but I checked her suit...Magnifique piece of technology I might say...The suit was the only thing that managed to hold the person alive, as it absorbed a big part of the damage sustained and so, there was a big chance that the person was still alive but unconcious.I hold on for a minute to get a detailed reading of the ship, where I noticed that the O2 levels are decreasing.I then, rushed to the Meskhenet station at cruise speed to bring back O2 canisters.Once back, I jettisoned the canisters and the miner ship's auto-tractoring systems got them all right.I also noticed my camera got deactivated as I wandered too far from it and it lost signal so I sent in another camera...
Once the second camera got in, I noticed the O2 came back to normal, so I controlled the camera to head in the cockpit to check the status of the person...When the camera reached the person, her suit send a warning saying that the wearer is unable to breath.This could have been because of the helmet the person was wearing.Luckily the suit had a control panel.I managed to press with the camera, a control which triggered the helmet's decompression system.I then pushed the body slightly, thus removing the visor of the helmet, allowing the person to breath, I then saw that the person was a female.
I noticed that she tried to send a distress message though she didn't had the occasion to send it.By reading the message I found out that she was part of the 77th, it's a pity that help never came into arrival.
The following thing made me really nervous, her suit managed to take much of the damage provoked by the metal objects impaling her, but still, some of the objects, managed to carve deep holes in her and also, they were constricting her lungs, preventing her to breath.Tres mal!After all this, I couldn't let her die, so I tried something insane...I set a timer on my ship, that, once off, will launch my escape pod in space, which will be tractored by the vessel's auto-tractoring systems.I couldn't tow the Arrastra as my Bastet isn't strong enough to drag a ship of this size.So, once the timer was set, I rushed in the escape pod.I could hear the ship systems counting down ,,5...4...3...2...1..." a short burst of silence then came in which was then broke up by the pod which was launched in the space.I was soon tractored inside the Arrastra.With a push, I got out of the pod, and headed into the cockpit.On the way there, I noticed a strange blaster, definetly of non-human technology, which had a strange, purple glowing energy cell...I didn't give much attention to that and continuing my way into the cockpit...
Once there, I carefully removed the mademoiselle from the debris, it was heavy removing all that debris, but I made it eventually.With the press of a button on her suit, I also managed to remove her helmet which fell on the ground.
I now thought of a way to get us back...My pod was too small to fit us both, but, I found out her escape pod which was on this ship...It obviously was of alien origins but it was big enough to fit us both...I then placed her delicately there, and headed back at the cockpit.I tried to reboot the ship systems but it was out of energy...I then remembered the energy cell in that blaster, and I though it should be enough to power the systems.I took it, and placed it in a hatch...The ship's systems powered up.I then planned to set a timer, to repeat the procedure I made to get on this Arrastra but when I saw ,,Mission Objectives" which changed my mind...I decided to open that menu up and I stumbled upon 3 files: The first file referred to the mission objective specifying that she needs to get resources in order to create artificial dark antimatter fuel for ships.The second file mentioned the location of the resources: Omicron Zeta, Radiation absorbment...that ,,Radiation absorbment" bugged me a lot.Anyway, the 3rd file was encrypted, but I managed to decrypt some words: Crystals...Could...Zeta...Ice...Murilo...Zeta...Beware
After this, I returned in the system's root menu and engaged a timer with the following output: ,,Launching the escape pod and setting autopilot to plot course for Meskhenet station"
I set the timer, and I had to activate it trough a control panel in the pod bay.I was planning to do that, but a Horus Battleship came in by the name of ,,Atlantis".I managed to open radio communication with it and even though I specified that I was on the Arrastra, he decided to open fire on it.I told him my ID and everything, telling that the Arrastra was my responsability and that I was onboard it trying to save a dying passenger, he didn't listen though and continued firing.He was one step of getting me killed but hopefully and Ion storm break trough...After it went away...I noticed that the Horus Battleship dissapeared...This made it clear to me, Horus are working against the Order...why else would they attack a ship where an Order agent was onboard of?
I then decided to resume my departure, but I stopped for a moment, reminding myself of her helmet, I thought I have to take it as it could store valuable information and maybe video recordings of what happened so I rushed back in the cockpit, took the helmet, and returned in the pod bay...
Anyway, I activated the timer trough the control panel, and I got in the escape pod where I carried the mademoiselle earlier and put her there.We were soon launched into space and we got tractored by my Bastet.The Arrastra's autopilot then engaged its cruise and plotted course for Meskhenet station and I followed it.
Once there, I took the mademoiselle at medicals and I arranged for the Arrastra to be examined.
The meds made a great job, the girl soon woke up, and even though she was scared at first, confused and all that, I eventually managed to earn her trust a little.I told her my name and also about what happened, about how i saved her and how I took her here.She couldn't believe it and she was scared...I then gave her helmet back as a proof and then he started to believe me.
It was quite hard, but by lying, deceiving and earning her trust, I managed to persuade her into giving me informations...I then found out that the 77th was planning to make dark antimatter fuel by absorbing the radiation emitted by the sun in this system.
Still, I was close to compromise all this when I took her on her ship in order to help her remind what happened.She found her blaster but she didn't found the energy cell in it.Fortunately, she was to distracted by looking at the debris which almost killed her so I seized the oportunity and took the energy cell from the hatch without her noticing it.This way she won't find out that I looked trough the mission objectives.
After we got off the ship, I noticed she also found something else on that ship, something which I missed, but which really seemed valuable...I decided not to push this matter as I would be risking to lose her trust and so I played the foul here and acted as I didn't saw that.
I then arranged a dormitory for her, telling her she will going to be staying here until her ship is repaired as she can't leave with the ship in that condition.I also promised her nothing will be going to happen to her and that she will be free to go when the reparations and examinations of the ship are complete
She now resides in her dormitory at the moment, and I still got that purple energy cell in my pocket, which I would gladly like to give it to your task force for examinations.

This was everything regarding this incident, I will try to keep you up to date if you consider it needed as I will try to earn more information from her.She also decided to tell me her name, after all that happened...If you would like to know, her name is Xal, maybe you heard of her before?

Anyway, monsieurs, there is another matter I would like to speak with you about...You see, I have been around here for a considerable amount of time to know how things are going, and I decided to join your task force.I would greatly appreciate if you consider my request, monsieurs as I definetly want to join your cause.
My fighting capabilities are not remarkable, but I definetly posses other, more valuable abilities and talents, abilities that members among your ranks saw and that I am sure you could find good use of.
You are also among the few who accept me for who I am and are not afraid of what I have become, I really feel at ease when I am in your company.
So, monsieurs, I would be really glad if you would consider all this, and I would really like to know, what do you think about the incident that occured yesterday.I decided it was needed to share this with you as I am sure,that this event can't be neglected.Au revoir!

Now that we know their objectives several patrol squadrons have been dispatched to keep the vicinity of the sun under close eye.

I'm not sure if i have heard of the girl you speak. But i have a team finding out who she really is.

as for the incident with horus, We will speak to you personally regarding this matter.

Now about your request.
We are willing to give you a chance.
A representative of our forces will contact you shortly.
He will be your CO until your training is complete.

*Subject: New info regarding the incident*

*Opening Containing Files*

Bonjour, monsieurs!This is agent Forlorn d'Autoine.
I have sent this message to inform you about the new information I found.
Basically, I managed to take some items from that 77th Member named Xal, a crystaline crystal, a vial with a strange, probably alien fluid in it, and a data chip which serves as a journal
I managed to get the ,,journal" and the vial, by making her drink a champagne in which I put a strong drug putting her to sleep, to avoid any doubts, I took the same champagne as well, but I diluated it with some water, and thus, I only suffered temporary numbness.So when she felt asleep, I quickly seized the opportunity and took the items as planned, knowing that she was hiding something from me
The crystal though, was given to me by her freewill, to honour that fact that I saved her, it was really touching considering what I previously did to her, all those lies and the methods I deceived her...But one thing I learned in the time when I was in the Royal Navy...To never let the guilt of such actions eat you as you must value your services way more than your personal feelings.
Her ship was also repaired by the technicians on the Station, and as promised, I let her live.I had to maintain my word, and the fact that I let her leave helped me a lot because she left without noticing that I took her belongings, and even if she will, she can't return to take them back...

I will begin to find out the contains of the journal as quickly as possible.As for the rest of the items, the energy cell, the vial, and the crystal, I am willing to give them to you if you agree to accept and conduct researches on them, though I would still like to have the crystal back after researches would be done...It managed to get a little moral value for me.
