>>Playing Audio<< I've just returned home from a patrol of the Tau systems. I was accompanied by Theia of the 17th, and Lizard with the 49th, though Theia broke contact to proceed with their own mission.
During our patrol, we happened upon a Kusari snubcraft and attempted to figure out what it's intentions were. At first, it seemed like an ordinary Kusari Reserve military ship...however after I moved in to take a closer look...I discovered that the ship itself appeared to have alien technology merged with it's component. That discovery freaked me the hell out, if you'll allow me to be blunt...
Anyway, I was able to take image-file datascans of the ship in question, I don't know if they'll be much help, but they'll be attached at the end of my transmission here.
While Lizard and I were interacting with the...infected Kusari pilot, it became suddenly hostile, and at around the same time two Outcast vessels showed up.
Lizard ordered me to retreat, I assumed she was gonna follow me out, but I was wrong, and I am unaware of Lizard's current status...
In any case, I'll upload those image-files that I mentioned.
