Naval Operations Headquarters [Message Dump]

[Dipicacyx]

Yesterday I embarked on my first patrol as an officer. I began patrolling the Kanto Field, when we received reports of Golden Chrysanthemum activity in the Shikoku system. Myself and two other officers made our way there, and their presence was discovered near the Kepler jump gate. We gave chase, but they managed to escape to Kyushu. After rallying at Planet Kyushu, we received reports from another officer of these same pirates in Hokkaido, and so we gave chase, all the way to Chugoku. Once again, we lost them, due to the cloaking device that was outfitted on their ship.

After returning to Hokkaido, we encountered the pirate battleship for the third time, near Ainu depot, and gave battle. With several destroyers on our side, the outcome was given, but unfortunately my lack of experience caused the destruction of my ship. Thankfully, my pod was recovered and delivered to the medical wards, and I expect to be back in action later this week.

There is nothing else noteworthy to report. I look forward to continuing to serve the Kusari Naval Forces. I know I still have much to learn. I only realised as I lay in the hospital bed that I did not record any of the day's events, for which I humbly apologise. Next time, I will keep my wits about me.
