⧫ ENCRYPTION: Order-EC[L] The fate of the Canaan
After receiving an emergency signal from the Omega 55 system I immediately went to investigate. The Canaan, one of our Osiris class ships, was apparently in pretty dire straits. When I arrived there was no sign of the Canaan however. Retracing the ships movements took some effort but with the help of some local Junkers I managed to piece together some basic information: The Core station in the system had been attacked and sent a distress signal, the Canaan either responded or was present when this happened. Later, the Junkers in the system saw the Canaan being chased by a Core battleship called Jupiter.
I set off in the direction where they headed, only a small distance from the Junker base, and found a jump hole to the Omega 58 system. A seemingly dead system with a neutron star in the middle, my navmap did not function while I was there, I assume there was a significant amount of interference. While it was effectively looking for a needle in a haystack, I eventually managed to find the Canaan; or what was left of it. The Core Battleship was still present, as such I approached while cloaked.
There were no signs of life left on the Canaan..I do not know how many people were stationed on that ship, but it is clear this is a great loss. Wasting no further time I reclaimed the black box from the wreckage, something which I imagine the Core had been unable to do without risking destroying it due to their battleship class weapons, and retreated back to Mu.
While I was exploring I ran into a Coalition and Apostatas pilot, both shared their sympathies and said how they too had stumbled upon the wreck.
Once I arrived at the Thebes, I was contacted by SCRA Lukas Keller, who had just received reports as well regarding what had happened. I have submitted a recording of the Wreck, the blackbox and my conversation with mister Keller in the report.
