Log - Ezrael Vertiga

The dinner with Enma Loyola was... short. She tried to stay polite. She lied. She didn't even eat with us. She was just there, drinking wine and watching Maren and me eat while we talked. I even called her Emmeleia, like Maren told me that's her 'petname'. Funny thing, Emmeleia is also the IFF signature of a ship that was present in Omicron Delta multiple times, attacking us with the help of the nomads. Yes, we gave her the damn Zoner Whale. I really hope we profit from it somewhen, although, right now, I don't know it was a good idea. She knows I know she is a nomad supporter. It was obvious. But I still don't know whether she is infected or not. According to Raven, she is.

Maren and I met Raven randomly. Once in Inverness, where we watched her having trouble with the Bretonian Police. It was hilarious. Apparently, Auxesia is not allowed to bring capital ships into any other Bretonian or bretonia-bordering system than Omega-3. That's funny, to see how a single bretonian police snub forced two Auxesian capital ships and one auxesian snub out of the system. The argument was very funny. I'll post the video capture I made with the remote drone here:

Auxesian Encounter in Inverness

I got some scans, partially, of the Eidolon Wraith and the Cincinnati. I doubt it's useful for us, but Maren told me she scans everything in radar range, always, so I thought I should adapt that behavior. With that drone, we can risk a bit more, getting closer to giant ships like the Cincinnati. I still feel a bit unrelaxed knowing Maren prefers to fly around in her snubs instead of using a drone.

We also had a meeting with Laguna from the Oracles. It was a very successful meeting, so far, yet I wait for an answer from the higher ranks of the Oracles to tell me Valery and Maren no longer have to be Unschuld. Laguna and Reena assured me Unschuld did way enough to gain her freedom. I like that. On the other hand, I wonder what exactly Unschuld did.

On the Hoffnungsschimmer, things got a bit out of control, to euphemism it. Valery uses a human projection now, walking around as a mixed version of Nancy and Maren, just even smaller. We had some strange situations with her in that form, but right now, I don't mind it anymore. It's actually fine to have more interaction with her. I never thought a nomad could be that... human-ish.

Nancy was on Canaria with her, and they picked up dudes together, doubleteaming them. Sounds totally strange, and I still don't know how Valery gives her projection that real-ish shape and such. I mean, it's not simple telekinesis or whatever, but her body feels fleshy real, warm, she eats, drinks, she even uses the toilet. She blushes when she looks at me. Or, well, past tense for now. Yesterday, Nancy went completely insane. She knows there is a memorial in Bretonia for the horrible things she did. She talked about it all the time, saying she doesn't deserve to live happy for all she did. Valery tried to calm her down without manipulating her body, but she failed. Nancy began to punch her own stomach with force, trying to get rid of Valery. So Valery left Nancy's body, Maren put her in a bathtub and tried her own luck with calming Nancy down, but also failed in it. We gave her some time, hoping it would calm her down. Didn't work. Valery was very exhausted from leaving Nancy's body that suddenly.

Then I tried to talk to Nancy. I locked me and her up in her room, saying I wouldn't leave unless she gain back her sanity. So we talked about the current issues. I knew she had feelings for me, but I didn't know she was jealous like that. And then she said over and over she would just destroy everything around her. Her relationship with Leon, then her friendship with Valery. She even insulted Maren badly. I didn't let go of her that easily, and that's when she went insane. She said she wanted to leave us so badly, but in her weakened state, I couldn't allow it. Valery just left her body, so she didn't even had the power to move me with her weak arms. She shouted at me, yelled her soul out of her body. Hell, she managed to make me angry with what she said. I can't even remember everything. I said if she wanted to leave, she had to kill me, knowing she loves me. I don't know what I had in my mind, but I gave her a knife, helped her pointing right at my chest. I felt the edge. I knew she wasn't strong enough to even get through my overall. But then, she said "I did this before". She collapsed, lost her consciousness for the rest of the day. I brought her over into Maren's and my room. Maren was shocked when I came in with Nancy in my hands. I told her what happened.

Short time later, I went over to our bathtub, where the little blue creature was purring in the water. She wanted to talk to me, Maren said, so I talked with Valery. Her idea was, since Nancy wanted to leave the Hoffnungsschimmer, head for Bretonia to get imprisoned, Valery would imprison her in her own mind, getting back into Nancy's body to fix her brain issues and all while she would simulate Nancy a life in her mind. Her body would be a lifeless puppet for a while. I wasn't very fond of that idea, but what was the option? Letting her leave? Locking her up? Imprison her in a cell on the Apahanta? No... Valery assured me she could handle this.

I'm not sure if I really should record this, but during the time Valery was a human projection, we joked about the next time I would see her as a nomad incubus. She was afraid I could find her ugly, like when I saw her the first time, when Maren vomited her into Nancy's mouth. I told her how curious I was about how she actually looked, although Thallia showed me her shapes on the x-ray pictures of Maren. Anyway, we joked about having Valery crawling on my chest while I stroke her like a cat, since the incubus makes a purring sound when absorbing the water of the air. So... well, I was in the bathtub with her. Retrospectively, that must sound insane. Having an alien crawling on the own chest. Actually, it was okay. We enjoyed a bath together. It was strange, totally, with her talking to my mind all the time while I talk to her like a human does. I stroked her musculous body. No bones, little fins on her back, a nozzle-like appendage with, uhm, like four lips as a mouth. Well, no real lips. The belly-part of her body was meaty, with an uncountable amount of tendrils. She told me she used that to manipulate my body to feel things, like a ghost touch on my cheek. So I let her do.

I bathed with an alien. So weird.

Valery needed her time to gain enough power to be able to enter Nancy again. It was good Nancy was still unconscious. With Nancy lying in our bed, Maren and I called it a day.

So we got up today, Maren taking care for Nancy, feeding her, cleaning her like during the time when Nancy was paralyzed by... what she did with Leon. I took the opportunity to get ourselves some money again. The Apahanta was heading to Omicron Lost, mining some Iridium Ore for the Junkers in New London. Not that money was a problem, but the more the better. We entered Omicron Delta cloaked, did our job in Omicron Lost and on our way back, we stumbled across the Core Rheinland Cruiser Hershel. It was hunting a nomad gunboat. Cloaked, we followed the Hershel, which lead us to Minor, to the fragment field of Toledo. Little did I know, it was captained by Cordelia Lyell, Guildkeeper and owner of the Core.

We decloaked on top of Toledo. There we were, a Core Rheinland Cruiser and an independent Mako. I'll add the logs of this encounter here as well.

Core Encounter in Omicron Minor

Now that the Core knows about the Apahanta still being out there, things are a bit more serious. The worst case would be a bounty on my head. However, she made it obvious how not interested she is in this. She played with me, that old monster. I offered her a payment to solve this situation. She declined, saying she had enough money to buy Curacao... I wonder if she said that on purpose, but I guess she knows. She heard about the sex stories of me on Durban and Alabama and Yaren, before I was with Maren. Welp, good times, but I didn't think this was public knowledge.

Of course, she suspected me to be infected because of my unique position between the lines. I sent her my blood, so she could be sure I'm not. Fuck, I just don't know. There was nothing I was able to offer her, nothing than information about the nomads. The Apahanta has enough data about what's lying beyond the Omicron Iota gate. We have scans of Dur Shurrikun, the planets in Iota, the Altair Complex, even about the Hidden Giant in Major. We know many gates of the nomads in house space. Chester, Newcastle, Drake, even the gate in Kansas Maren showed me. However, the latter I can't show her. I promised.

Lyell was right. I don't have the best blood results. Much stress, and I actually feel exhausted. No rest on the Apahanta, no rest on the Hoffnungsschimmer. Maren is really doing a good job to help me, to please me. Yes, she does a really good job. Oh yes...

I contacted the IRG. We need to upgrade the cloak of the Apahanta. I can't dig deeper without it. House space is too dangerous for an independent capital ship, no matter how good my intentions are. Right now, the Apahanta is at Livadia, and the Zoners have full access to it. Leon is managing all this while I took his Osprey to get back to Maren in Omega-49. Can't wait to see her.
