Well, this is an interesting one.
Commission Agent Shiranui, Fleet Lieutenant Sydney Hunter, and I were performing patrol exercises in Vic-, erm, Tau-44 this evening when we encountered two Auxesia ships including one piloted by Keeper Revenant, and a third unaffiliated ship piloted by a different old friend, Samuel Locklear. Three people we haven't talked with in some time. We discussed many things, including what we've missed in the past few years. And then we took a trip down to Inverness to visit their home in return.
Shiranui and I are currently guests aboard the residential quarters of their station. We haven't seen much of the rest of the inside, but judging from the exterior of the installation they seem to have facilities for capital ship maintenance, possibly construction. They also let slip that they're producing high quality clones of various bits of AP Manufacturing equipment. I can't imagine the Core is particularly pleased about that. Compound that with their multiple instances of... acquisition of multiple House and Edge Worlds battleships, and the "understanding" they have with Rheinland, and we may be able to get some work done on rebuilding the Huginn sooner than I think any of us had hoped.
Hunter's ship was unfortunately flagging to some hostile entities as Crayter Military, so she's on her way back to Tau-44 to get that sorted out. Regrettably, she will have to do it in a shuttle. And Aquila will be rebuilding another Rook.
I'm afraid I didn't get much in the way of unclassified footage. Or much in the way of footage at all. Communications logs will be distributed to the people who need to see them.'
