To:The Order CC From:"Constantine" Subject:Recent Updates from the Tau Cell
This is agent Constantine of the Tau Cell, with the latest reports from the sector.
About thirteen hours ago, I was called back to the Order controlled systems to escort Admiral Golanski for a tour around the Taus. I had been informing him about the recent activities of the nomads and the nomad influences in the Taus through a more secure channel ever since the Tau cell was set up. I am told that he decided to see the situation with his own eyes, escorted by the agents Jay Zito and Souvik Ahmed.
Seven hours ago we reached to the scanner distance of Java base controlled by the IMG, and continued our patrols towards the Tau 37 system. That's when we, unexpectedly, found two vessels bearing the LSF transponders making their ways towards the Outcast regions. Mount Moffit was a transport with lots of different products and materials in its cargo bay. The contents of the cargo bay will be included in a separate report to the intelligence division, though there was nothing important. Chimera, however, mounted weapons that were produced using nomad technology. They were easy to spot with a simple scan of their ship, and the characteristics of the projectiles the weapons fired were very similar to what we see when we meet the nomad fighters.
After a bit of a chase we could stop them by Java, and we asked them to hand over their weapons to us. Meanwhile we have learned that they are in the Taus to gather intelligence about the Outcasts.
Here is a piece from the communications logs:
Quote:Order|Michal.Golanski: We will get rid of those weapons forever and you are free to continue researching "Outcasts." Order|Constantine": I could even help you with your research. =LSF=Chimera: *sigh* I had come to like these guns. Order|Constantine": I have lots of knowledge about them. =LSF=Mount.Moffit: Bob: Yes? What do you know? Order|Michal.Golanski: Constantine used to be part of them, unwillingly. =LSF=Chimera: Very well, in the interest of mutual respect.
As it could be understood from the logs, we took their nomad weapons, and in return we gave them what they wanted. I've told them what they should know, like everybody should start to know, the relationship between the nomads and the outcasts. I am sure the rest of the Overwatch and our agents are already briefed on this relationship.
As the discussions continued a Colonel named Aubert Giroux of the Council joined us, and shared with us what he knows about the region and the nomad influences. We got his promise that he would send any information regarding the nomads he could find to our way, most notably about the cruiser Vatan of the Gallic forces in the region.
The next is a bit of a surprise. Colonel Giroux had to leave us for a little while, that's when the LSF pilot unexpectedly proposed us an offer of sorts:
Quote:=LSF=Chimera: Right, on to the 'top secret' stuff. Order|Constantine": Listening. =LSF=Chimera: Of course I'd have to clear this with the directorate but.. =LSF=Chimera: Agreed, so how would you feel if I proposed we work together? Order|Constantine": The Overwatch will consider it, I guess... But... unofficially... our policies should be in line with this. Order|Michal.Golanski: Unnoficial aid will be accepted. I dont like going overt... Less troubles that way.
I've been told to report this offer to the Overwatch, so here it is. The Admiral will probably say more about it later on, so I'll leave it to him. If anything comes out of this, we will probably hear from the LSF representatives soon.
As we started to conclude our unexpected meeting, we recieved a call from Colonel Giroux, stating that a nomad fighter was sighted in the system. Our agents spread around for the search and we soon found the nomad Ennugi passing through the jumphole leading to the Tau 29 system. I and Colonel Giroux chased after the nomad and downed it soon afterwards.
We met a couple of Kusarian Naval pilots then, but that's not even worth mentioning. Five hours ago, Admiral Golanski and agents Ahmed and Zito left the Taus to return back to their posts wherever they might be situated. And I went back to my cover in the Taus.
My cell here will be operating independently and undercover as always. Though I'll be in touch. Constantine out.
