Amazing! I really didn't expect your Eden to have anything to do with that bracelet. It was too remiscent in nature to ancient Terran legends of Atlantis and "proto"-Egypt.
You may also wish to follow this lead, if this is truly the case: Search your records for "Emerald Tablets of Thoth", "Thoth Hermes", and "Hermes Trismegistus".
I will be very interested to know what pops up.

There are no screens per this but we are told that yes our ship was helping a damaged ship. We were also told this may have been all caused by a rogue shot that may have hit our ship by mistake. Either way many lives were lost in todays battle.
We offer a diplomatic resolution. This resolution was already transmitted in game. As heated as both our empires may be over this action, I trust you will be ok in the end.
Defiant out
ATT all =C.C.E= SHIPS,
I have assumed control of our Battle fleet. A coder on plannet Manhatten has sent a trans that he may be able to desifer the code on the artifact.
I am calling all battleready ships to the New York System to stay there until further notice. This coder must be kept safe at all times and yes many may wonder why a large fleet has to protect him. It is simple he is and can uncode the artifact with the grid to our home.
ALL SHIPS REPORT TO NEW YORK SYSTEM ASAP ORDER OF CAPTAIN DEFIANT
DEFIANT OUT

I took a lose at the hands of a pirate so my arrival will be delayed. I belive that =CCE= Wolf Man Is already In New York and Standing Guard. =C.C.E= Lord Clan Wars still under going some repairs from the pirates attack the other day. But will be moving out later after repairs are done.
Are mission is clear to protect the coder at all cost.
I received a very important Trans from the Coder we were sent to protect. It looks like the Trans came from the Central or Western systems and has fled from the New York area. I am uncertain of his ware a bouts but we must find him at all costs.
I was made aware in his trans that he is afraid as there have been many attacks in the region lately. He has said he has fled to ware he will feel safe at the moment and could not wait for our arrival.
Orders still stand bring your ships to the New York sector were we must find him and assure he will be kept safe at all times. He holds the only key we have to our Eden. We must stay put and actively scan for his ware bouts.
We will retrieve this coder at all costs once we have located his position. I prey he is in good hands. I feel today history may change. I must ask you to be brave our blood may spill. We are so close to finding our Eden. It was fore told that a great war would give way and much will be lost before we find our home. I fear this prophecy it at hand.
An unknown war against whom? And about what? We shall soon find out. The prophecy was not clear regarding this and I do not have the answers to give you.
I just want you to stay true to the light and be brave my brothers. We will loose much soon but if its to be we must.
The last statement in the prophecy says that a side you must choose. You shall make a great ally in this war but you shall also make great enemies.
I predict we must make a choice in the near future and I am uncertain to what it shall be?
Time will tell but for now ensure the coder is found and retrieved safely.

You are welcome in NY, and welcome to stay as well. However, due to our hospitatity to you, we also expect you to extend a fair share back.
I ask that the CCE come to the assistance of any SA ship under attack when you are in Liberty.
I hope that it will only be necessary for me to extend this as a request, not an order.
Thank you for your time and understanding.
Sincerely yours,
Transmission end.

We will be there for a a short time until we find our coder. I am glad for this kind offer and we will help you in any way we can. When we have found our coder and he has uncoded it you will always be welcome in Eden.
I pledge the assistance of my ship and the ships under my command to the =C.C.E=. As long as that help does not conflict with my primary mission of safe guarding Liberty Space and defeating Liberty's enemys. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" (old terran saying) Look for the LNS Valhalla in space and we will assist you whereever or whenever we can. Thank you.

=C.C.E= will pledge the assistance to any SA ships as the saying has been said already a (The enemy of my ememy is my friend).
My brothers our hunches regarding the AW were true. This info can now be declassified for all to see.
A few days ago we were approached by AW in the hopes we would help them attack SF and SA forces in there homelands. A combined assault so to speak was supposed to take place per the plans with help of other factions as well.
We agreed to take part in this escapade to gather more Intel on the AW forces as they were very evasive. I want to make this clear we had no intentions of actually carrying out this attack with them. It had been fore told, a side we must choose for an impending great war. In agreeing with both SA privately and AW sides openly we were able to find out much info on the cause and effect of the attacks that caused our coder to flee for his life from the system we were supposed to meet him at.
Upon further Intel we received an encoded message from the coder that his wife and children were killed in these attacks by the AW around the sector. He told us if we want the artifact decoded we would have to punish the attackers for what they have done.
We had no choice; this was fore told and will do what ever we have to do in retrieving this artifact and coder. Even if this meant punishing the threat. We had to make a decision and fast. We decided to share this information with SA and SF fleets of AW impending attack for our own security with only just a couple hours away.
I had received a PM from AW Ripper who organized much of this attack out, asking for a time of this combined strike. It was agreed nine central as they were also supposed to have there fleet ready for the attack. Ripper also asked for help from a =C.C.E= ship this morning. {incase they deny this wow what a co incidents then However and unknown to the AW and only the commanders of SF and SA at the time all knew we were going to offer assistance to help them punish the AW per our coders request at time of battle.
Battle time came time as it was nine central. The =C.C.E= fleet ready to go waiting for the AW to fleet to show as they still thought we were on the AW side. Waited, waited, waited and a no show. What a surprise? NOT In any case it was at that point that I realized why AW decided to organize this event? In the hopes others would fight for them. How cowardly is that? We were on to AWs plan from the start and hoped they did not show to prove this point. {We were supposed to help you remember}
I now had nothing to show our coder for his request to punish the AW for his loss so we may attain our key to Eden. So it was decided that we stormed write into Theta and hit there command posts. This would surly please the coder for the loss of his wife and children in the AW attacks. During the invasion we lead boarding parties captured many thousands and utterly almost annihilating the AW stations in theta to dust. Hence why we brought battleships for those were our targets.
After the assault on the home bases were complete, a lone AW ship decided to pop in and show his head. Having anti cap weapons and this AW gunboat being of no threat to us we decided to take pot shot at him when he made his strafing runs. He actually polished the windows of my command deck with his gunboat turrets. However this brave AW did manage to take down a stock prison liner coming out of an asteroid field. We suffered one loss to there many thousands. We had anticipated much more resistance and much more casualties than was given. The battle lasted for a short while as the AW gunboat tried to shield run the =C.C.E= battleships with the only effect of polishing our armor and windows. I will say this man was very brave however I have learned one thing from this event.
AW NEXT TIME IF YOU WANT TO START A WAR DO IT YOURSELF OR AT LEAST SHOW TO HELP.
As of now all =C.C.E= ships are ordered by Defiant to stand battle ready for a counter attack by AW. We are to help repel them with the SF and SA fleets from there homelands in the hopes our coder feels safe enough to reveal himself once more to us.
It was fore told heavy losses will commence to the fleets in this war. A war AW should have fought for them selves instead of slandering honest factions with other honest factions to do there bidding.
I leave off with a message for all AW friendly factions. They got themselves in this mess I think it would be wise to let them get themselves out for once. They tried to start a great war using other factions to do there bidding and now they call on you to save them.
Think about this child who has cried wolf too many times ends up one day being eaten by the wolf. I am asking for your cooperation in this matter in staying out of this mess they created. If I have any influence and friends gained threw out my travels I ask you to stay out of this mess they have created using dirty, dishonest tactics. We do not wish for a server wide war AW will probably ask for now knowing the way they operate but if it happens we all know AW caused it using very dirty, dishonest tactics.
In any case they are a powerful empire and if anything happens they have enough people to hold there own. =C.C.E= would like to open up diplomatic relations to all AW friendly factions in the hopes of a stay out of this mess they caused scenario.
