I've met a strange man, he calls himself doctor Rush. If what he says is true, he is researching another possibilities for FTL travel. He got me interested, though I'm still a bit sceptical about him. I offered him a trip to the Jump Hole.. or the Shrine system I should probably say. If he really is trying to research FTL travel, he should be interested in those jump gates, right? Well, turned out he really is. We went there and he was fascinated by the pylons and jump holes. I just hope he actually got some data from the trip.
When we were near the Holes, a nomad de-cloaked. I told Rush to jump. I know Vertiga said something about the system being a peacefull one, but I didn't want to take any risk. It turned out, the nomad... Astarte it called itself, just wanted to talk. So we did. For a bit. Interesting thing was, he actually made the voice to come up from my speakers. I think Ivan mentioned something about them doing it before, but it still cought me surprised. I'm still not sure if anything it said will be usefull, but it's always good to have it recorded.
When I was about the leave the nomad actually gave me an PDA. I'm not sure why, but my best guess is he can communicate through it. I'll just lock it safe, in case I'll need it.
