Project addendum #1-C:

Several years ago, Order archaeologists unearthed half of a stone tablet on Planet Nauru believed to be of K'vosh origin. The writing on the tablet was identified as K'vosh lettering, but was in an as of yet unencountered dialect - or perhaps intentionally encoded. Up until recently, the second half of the tablet was never found.

Yesterday, the tablet's missing half was discovered by members of the Cambridge Research Institute investigating alien ruins on Planet Gaia. Order contacts within the institute sent images of the tablet to Mora Station; as of yet the Institute itself has no idea what it has found.

Unfortunately, deciphering the tablet is a slow process, but what little has been translated seems to indicate an artificially engineered substance with similar behavior to this virus encountered by the Hatsuzakura's crew. We will provide further information once the tablet has been fully translated.
