The transmission, as you see, is referring to the old Hideyoshi's Guard... The source claiming to be a remnant of that organisation. It is also claiming to have been imprisoned for two years and had escaped Imperial prisons just a shortwhile ago and is in a state of disrepair.
I have already taken the liberty of dispatching a small expedition of fighters to Honshu in an attempt to try to contact the source or, alternatively, try to locate the area of transmission through trigonometry and other means. If the source had indeed successfully fled the Imperial forces, we should be able to locate it. The signal should be just strong enough.
Obviously enough though, we cannot confirm the source's story. There is always the chance of it being affected by those foul alien creaures. Which is where my predicament crawls in. Now, we do have our own facilities for such cases, but with the allocation of some of those facilities to military means not long ago, we cannot be sure they can produce the optimum results.
I was informed a shortwhile ago that a small Order expedition landed on Ryuku after their flight from Toledo. We could do worse than asking them for some insight in this situation, they're somewhat more experienced dealing with what is ultimately their most hated adversary. However. I have always been a staunch defender of the autonomy of our own research into these organisms, and I was under the impression The Order believe themselves to be the only group with a right to know this particular enemy. And I do think that the Toledo crisis only underlined the need of our autonomy in that particular field.
Forgive me, my introduction was longer than I expected it to be. But surely, you can see the point I'm strugging to make. Do you think we should invite the Order agents to participate in monitoring the suspected survivor?"
