Vida longa, comandantes.

The AI problem is getting serious. We've lost contact with some transport ships and escorts around the Xi system. On their last neuralnet messages, they reported seeing artificial intelligence vessels. The Cimitarra Company vociferously suggests immediate action against this rising threat. A detachment to strike their home system, right next to ours, should be dispatched with haste. Corsario lives are in risk, comandantes. Don't let us down.

For the imperio!

As the record plays, audio starts to echo the Executor’s words, interrupting the soft engine hum nearby.

Fellow Chosen,

Hermanos y hermanas, as we've grown, I have seldom taken the liberty to address all of you together on a general DTR frequency. Yet today, I wish to use this opportunity to congratulate you all on the monumental tasks that we've accomplished in the last few cycles.

We have taken on many challenges together - each more daring and ambitious than the last. Yet we succeeded at every turn - united by one vision, emboldened by our collective strength.

Our engineers have adeptly constructed our Sanctum, at the heart of our Imperio. Our installation, a monument to Corsair ingenuity and craftsmanship shall pave the way for further prosperity of our people - to bolster our armaments and serve as a major supply station for the resources we need. Together with the Reincarnation outpost, these are only the first steps in further establishing our infrastructure.

Our raids in the Omegas have intensified. Many targets have been pirated between Bretonia and Rheinland while en-route to deliver their commodities. Trading ships have been salvaged and their cargo reclaimed to supplement our economy and fuel our industry.

Our incursions led us to the discovery of the Ulster Annex-3 in Omega 3. An installation built by the Interspace Commerce backed company Team Convoy Logistics. Despite the attempts of the Bretonian navy to introduce martial law and protect it - that station is now history. No amount of casualties stopped us from laying fire and fury on this base. With a lightning strike, our forces crippled and destroyed Ulster. Anything left was salvaged and brought home, as per standard protocol.

And yet, this was just the beginning of our military campaign. While Deterrence was on the offensive, our enemies in the Omicrons decided it would be an opportune moment to attack us. Core and the Outcasts united, sent the largest armada of ships we've ever seen, with one purpose - destroying our Sanctum and striking at the heart of our territory. Despite wave after wave, our forces prevailed even to the point of launching counter-offensives aimed at Malta. Indeed, the battle for Sanctum shall be known as the greatest military victory of our faction yet. A testament of how all enemies perish before a true Corsair. Countless enemy ships were defeated above the skies of Crete. Our crews have salvaged many tons of materials since then.

This victory didn't come without a price. Indeed, we lost many brothers and sisters, as well as independent Corsairs, who rose to the cause and came to defend our home. Many others came to our aid, including Zoners and our Order allies. The sacrifices shall not be forgotten. Let us all consider 05/05/829 as Sanctum day - a vigil for those fallen on our side to protect our way of life, our continued survival, and our right to self-determination. Today, Tomorrow, Forever.

The siege on Sanctum was lifted. And with it, our spirit has persevered once more. Brave Chosen, you have shown your mettle and teeth. We now stand as united as ever, so to all our enemies - Seek to not bar our way, no matter the challenge or the cost, we shall press onwards as an indivisible whole.

As we move, there will be setbacks, no doubt more challenges lie ahead. With the multitude of our concurrent operations and with our movement growing even more - the Conclave's direction becomes ever more important. Praetor Samaras, Praetor Cerratus, and Praetor Sanchez shall each carry my vision and authority. Look upon the Conclave for guidance and direction in the days to come.

A new dawn is upon us - and we shall look forward to the future. More raiding companies will be sent in the Omegas, and onto Dublin and New London in Bretonia. Our relics operation shall double - in Liberty, Gallia, and Kusari. Already we have won our first skirmish with the Rose Dragons, thanks to our brave pilots. We shall continue to trade with our Zoner and Hogosha partners. And let's not forget Rheinland, where new deals will be made with the Unioners. A strong alliance will be forged with Order - to further push the united front of Core and Outcasts. The latter particularly have shown no sign of stopping and have sent additional forces to neutralize our most recent company. More forces will be sent to counter their moves. Like rabid animals, we shall put them out of their misery.

Out of the ashes, many have flocked to join our banner - independent Corsair pirates and raiders now rallying behind our cause. Welcome your new brothers and sisters to the fight, for the path ahead is laid bare and will not be easy. Like locusts, we shall step over the bodies of our fallen brethren if need be, but move ever forward.

After everything we've been through - continue to count on each other to get the job done. It's your sweat and blood that made it happen.

DTR is Tenacity.
DTR is Dedication.
DTR is Strength.

Onto victory,
Executor Ravenna Nagash

Buenas tardes to the High Command,

I can report the purchase-finalisation of the "real estate" offered by the Zoner splinter group around Dottore Strange.

Corresponding Neural Net entry

After personally travelling to the disclosed location in the Omega 55 system, I conversed with the Dottore and we struck a deal.

The currently still named "Freeport KazMull" is located in a favourable position of the system, as was advertised.
The negotiations were swift and constructive, no obstacles occured.

I went ahead and utilised the war chest of the Battlegroup Xi to pay out the Zoner, his work has spared the logistics division a good amount of trabajo.
Engineers have been put to work, overhauling the station to our tactical needs, so it can serve as a bridgehead and staging ground for the Imperio in Omega 55.

Purchase Logs - slightly redacted

Hola Senors y Senoritas Praetors!

During my routine supply run from El Crete to Reincarnation, I met up with some new faces, Hogosha! They were interested in picking up Relics from Reincarnation, so I happily showed them the way, and then I got invited to join them on their Relic-filled journey to Liberty, and in the heat of the moment, I agreed without waiting for authorization by Overseer Lazar, muchas apologies for that.

Let me tell you, those folk do not joke around, they decided to go straight through Rheinland instead of their home-turf of Kusari, and unfortunately we ran into a heavy Rheinland patrol. Being the slippery type, I got away with little difficulty, but in the process I got split from my newfound hermanos, forcing me to head back to our space. They assured me on long-range comms that they did make it through at the very least, but no details past that.

As short as this cooperation lasted, I would very much to fly with those hombres again, my nose seem like good business, and I can tell el aroma of good business from a system away!

Esteemed Executor, esteemed Praetors,

As it is my duty, I am reporting that expansion of the Sanctum continues without issues, using materials bought, stolen, or clawed out of wrecks of our enemies. The superstructure has just been expanded to host a new set of modules, and right now I'm busy accommodating new crew onboard. Frequency of basic supply runs will increase, thankfully proximity to Crete trivialises such issues. Currently the work focuses on applying additional plating, turning the Sanctum into a Fortress in a true meaning of the word. With the planned additional weapons platforms on top of the armor upgrade, an attack like one that we witnessed a few months ago would wash over it, with the crew barely noticing anything out of the ordinary.

If you have any wishes in particular regarding the expansion of the station, you need to but say the word, otherwise I'll keep on current course.

┝┅{Subject: Sanctum Status Update

Esteemed Executor, esteemed Praetors,

Our recently acquired Pilgrim Liner, christened 'Demeter' has been boarded with 500 volunteers ready to officially resettle the Jewel of Omegas, along with following supplies:

Code:
- 1240 tonnes of various materials and machinery

- 1000 tonnes of food

- 500 cubic metres of fresh water

- Large stockpile of medications, including anti-radiation medication.

- A batch of Artifacts for trade with Zoners for various supplies obtainable locally

The voyage from Crete to Gran Canaria went without incident, much to complaints of our escorts: Incomodo and Ares. The entire crew along with the colonists have taken the anti-radiation medication we've recently purchased from Med Force Enterprise to protect them from the side effects of passing through Omega-41. While passing through Omega-55 was an alternative, that system is nowhere near safe enough to risk moving our civilians. We've settled down near one of the abandoned settlements near equator, allowing us to reuse existing buildings instead of having to build everything from the grounds up.

The 'new old' settlement name has been chosen by our colonists to be New Olynthos. Colonists will continue to rely on Demeter to provide housing until the existing buildings will be repaired to a usable state, as well as all the cargo unloaded. We expect it to take no more than 2-3 days, at which point Demeter along with Myself will be back en route to Crete. All further updates regarding New Olynthos' development will be sent on a separate channel from this point onwards. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a few new residential buildings to inspect.

Saudaciones, los miembros del cónclave.

We bring bad news. One of our newly fielded trains failed to check-in at its destination. Such cases are usual, as transponders and transmitters can fail rapidly in the radioactive environment of the border systems. But, that is not the reason for the worries: even with communication equipment down, more than enough time has elapsed since the last departure. The transport should've been moored at Crete or the Sanctum by now. But no recent records confirm this. We have reasons to believe the transport was intercepted mid-route. By our calculations, we have an estimate on where the transport was attacked. The full report is in the personal neuralnet of each member.

Destruction of our assets built with the blood of brave corsairs will not be tolerated. We advise immediate action.
