Guten tag, Wachmann Laura Carsten here. I´m finally sending short report about mein two recent patrols, there was delay caused by my stay in hospital, they kept me there despite injuries were just minor ones. And I need new Mjolnir now. Ja, again, no need to remind me the last one was scrapped just week ago.

But, anyway, there were three event which deserves to mention. First one, attempt of zoner whale which belong to group known as Phoenix to breach the trade embargo. I stopped it for control at Lübeck border station in Hamburg. It was fully loaded with deuterium and when I asked where is the destination of the cargo, captain answered that freeport in Bering. After I reminded him this would be against laws, he agreed that "he guess he is not going there then". I just wanted to bring this to attention because I believe this was not single attempt and they may try supplying their station through Hamburg again. Despite there probably isn´t anything shady with their intentions, it is still against laws. Record of the conversation here...

Now to the more dramatic events. Hessian cruiser appeared in Stuttgart so I went there to investigate, knowing that reinforcement made by battleship RNC-Thuringen is heading there too. I found the hessian on the trade lane between planet Stuttgart and New Berlin jumpgate. Captain´s behaviour could not be more strange. There were not signs of attempt to fight or run. He seemed to be confused and not completely sane, claiming that "there were some Corsairs in system" and then he is just "reloading subsystems here". Then probably activated self-destruction but it didn´t work what he commented with words that nothing works on that ship. But my scans were showing that ship is fully armed. In the end, captain out of nothing opened provocative fire, just two or three shots against our battleship. Then the Hessian ship was of course completely destroyed, quickly and without any significant effort to defend itself. I really would like to know what was this about. BDM inspektor which arrived there too thought captain was under cardamine, but my own opinion is...who knows, maybe it is related to nomad activity which I suffered in Stuttgart system too not so long time ago? Hard to guess. Anyway, sending complete record and scans of the event.

Just shortly after this event, IFFless Roc bomber named Reaper.Clown with freelancer ID came here with Hessian battleship Lady.Irena and said he is paid by Hessians for "bringing our heads on their table". Then opened fire on BDM officer and after he destroyed his ship also on me. Unfortunately after not short fight he destroyed even my ship too. I already reported the ship to criminal database. Some screen of battle and that hired gun here...
