Subject: The Delta Crisis and Ish'tar

---

The skirmish in Delta, which had been initiated due to the Order sending a Battle Fleet to kill Keeper Raven and myself, seems to have prompted the Core to assault Freeport 11. The station took severe damage, and while many attempted to pin the blame on us for partaking in the attack, their claims and accusations were proven false. At this time, logistics vessels under the command of Venator Stacker are currently aiding in the relief efforts of the Freeport. Each vessel should be escorted, due to the high traffic of hostiles in the area, as well as Nomads. Do not under any circumstances open fire unless the convoy is in danger.

Meanwhile, whilst relocating to keep a keen eye on the developing situation, I aboard the Cincinnati encountered Ish'tar. The rather unique alien kept a distance from the Freeport, and we had revealed ourselves, keeping our weaponry ready to fire should it move, which it did to toy with us. After several minutes of sharking about the Freeport, it left, and we followed it to the Omicron Kappa jumphole, where the Core, Coalition, and Order, had engaged a steadily growing fleet of hostiles. As the Core charged Ish'tar, we brought our artillery online and opened fire on the behemoth. You'll find deck-camera views of such attached below.
