Saludos:


It has been some time since we made contact and a neutrality pact with K’hara. After that, peculiar encounters have happened, but nothing fruitful in terms of knowledge or technology acquisition, the main reason why we are trying to deal with them. I decided to take a bold step and entered into their Worlds.

I travelled deeply into their space, waiting response from them. Exploring the area is a pleasure to the eyes; nomads secure their surroundings strongly, the sight of innumerable vessels in the horizon was astounding. Without trying to put my situation in jeopardy, after I quickly passed the destroyed planet, I reached one of the most profound and dangerous zones in Sirius: Omicron Major.

As expected, when I arrived at Omicron Major, things started to get convoluted. A single K’hara vessel, Ljosberinn, attended to my call. It was particularly aggressive towards me and my crew; it probably did not anticipate my sudden presence in this place. The Nomad communicated, with apparent angriness, that I was not welcomed in there; this reaction was not surprise to me, after all we were invading their home.

I tried to convey into our interests, unsuccessfully, and then it gave me a vision of menacing warning: Omicron Iota, Omicron Major and Omicron Psi are off-limits for humans. Finally, we exited the place, trying to cool things, not before emphasizing our posture regarding them. Their intrusive communication techniques baffle me, but what concerns me most is how we could reach a more prosperous consensus with these not trustworthy beings. We have seen too many Nomad interlopers in Omicron Alpha and it makes me wonder if we can really expect more than target practice in home. Regardless of that, further encounters are required to prove their real usefulness.

[08.06.2021 22:22:52] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** (predatory frustration ... seeking) ***
[08.06.2021 22:23:35] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** [a violet eye, darting, livid...] ***
[08.06.2021 22:25:18] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** [a voiceless whisper in the back of your head:] ~here~ /not/ -for- "vermin" ***
[08.06.2021 22:27:42] HS>Destino-Final: A: It has been months since our last big "talk", but I think you would hear this...
[08.06.2021 22:28:51] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** [the voice shudders...] *** -meet- "Us" ... /consequence/ -of-trespassing- (absolution) ... /perhaps/ ***
[08.06.2021 22:29:05] HS>Destino-Final: A: This is Audaz Alarcon, Alpha Explorer of Malta Hyperspace Starfleet; calling to the err..."relevant" nomads in the area.
[08.06.2021 22:29:56] HS>Destino-Final: A: This is worthless, we have done no progress so far with them, we are still curious about their tech and knowledge...
[08.06.2021 22:30:04] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** "names" /irrelevant/ ... -face- "Us" ... /answer/ -for- /trespassing/ (annoyance) ***
[08.06.2021 22:31:38] HS>Destino-Final: A: I sense them, but no one appears near the planet. Navigator, take us out.
[08.06.2021 22:31:49] HS>Destino-Final: N: Si, senor.
[08.06.2021 22:31:53] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** (command) /come/ "sinner" ... "ancient-lair" -above- ... ***
[08.06.2021 22:32:15] HS>Destino-Final: A: Contact, at last.
[08.06.2021 22:32:27] HS>Destino-Final: A: I was wondering when you were going to show up.
[08.06.2021 22:32:46] HS>Destino-Final: A: Yes, the same signatures as the ones before you.
[08.06.2021 22:33:08] HS>Destino-Final: A: You are different, is that correct?
[08.06.2021 22:33:16] HS>Destino-Final: A: Not like the lost ones?
[08.06.2021 22:33:22] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** -what-brings- "vagabond" -to- "Home of Light Unceasing" [?] ***
[08.06.2021 22:33:41] HS>Destino-Final: A: Some time ago, we made an agreement with your kind.
[08.06.2021 22:33:49] HS>Destino-Final: A: We could say a pact.
[08.06.2021 22:33:52] HS>Destino-Final: A: Of neutrality.
[08.06.2021 22:34:02] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** "We" -speak-for- "Radiance"/"Mainshare"/"Light-True" ***
[08.06.2021 22:34:21] HS>Destino-Final: A: We have agreed to this terms, and there has not been hostilities between us.
[08.06.2021 22:34:28] HS>Destino-Final: //these*
[08.06.2021 22:35:07] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** "Radiance" -knows-of- ~agreement~ ... "this-here" /trespasses/ ... "Home of Light" /not/ -for- "its-kind" ***
[08.06.2021 22:35:28] HS>Destino-Final: A: Mainshare...Did I hear this right? It is always difficult to interpret the communication with you.
[08.06.2021 22:35:43] HS>Destino-Final: A: Of course, I thought you would not be pleased with this.
[08.06.2021 22:35:50] HS>Destino-Final: A: But hear me out.
[08.06.2021 22:35:56] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** /insolence/ ***
[08.06.2021 22:36:07] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** (command) /speak/ ***
[08.06.2021 22:36:48] HS>Destino-Final: A: The thing is...we have not seen you nearby, we are interesting in a more profound agreement, one that can benefit us both.
[08.06.2021 22:37:01] HS>Destino-Final: //we are interested*
[08.06.2021 22:37:26] HS>Destino-Final: A: Only if Outcasts remain untouched by you, of course.
[08.06.2021 22:37:33] HS>Destino-Final: A: We care about our people.
[08.06.2021 22:37:35] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** -heed-this- ... "Our" ~scapes~ /NOT/ -for- "its-kind" -to-wander- ... ~agreement~ -stands- ***
[08.06.2021 22:38:14] HS>Destino-Final: A: But as Malta Hyperspace Starfleet, we are knowledge seekers, and we would like to invest more in this pact.
[08.06.2021 22:38:25] HS>Destino-Final: A: Information, technology.
[08.06.2021 22:38:51] HS>Destino-Final: A: We want to know more, so our projects can be completed.
[08.06.2021 22:39:15] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** "Our" ~benevolence~ /thin/ ... "this-node" -sings-to- "######" ... -tells- "Them" ... "They" -dream-of-this- ***
[08.06.2021 22:39:16] HS>Destino-Final: A: The Orange Dream...or Link, as your kind said, it is very important to us.
[08.06.2021 22:39:55] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** [as to fortify its statement, flashes of images slam the human speaker. Systems of Iota, Major, Psi, barred, banned-
[08.06.2021 22:40:28] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: -locked away. A feeling of grand threat weaves through the vision, and of little patience.] ***
[08.06.2021 22:40:57] HS>Destino-Final: A: Fine. Ok...ok, do not need to remind me that twice. *chuckles*
[08.06.2021 22:41:02] HS>Destino-Final: A: We will leave.
[08.06.2021 22:41:06] HS>Destino-Final: A: As you desire.
[08.06.2021 22:41:20] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** /wait/ ***
[08.06.2021 22:41:43] HS>Destino-Final: A: Still, we are very curious people, we will certainly talk more, eventually.
[08.06.2021 22:42:31] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** "its" ~song~ -will-be- ~sung~ to "Radiance" ... -await- ~answers~ ***
[08.06.2021 22:42:34] HS>Destino-Final: A: Be safe out there, little one. And do not get too close to Malta. You have rules, we also have those.
[08.06.2021 22:42:53] K'Hara|Ljosberinn: *** /leave-now/ ... /do-NOT/ -wander-again- ***
[08.06.2021 22:42:58] HS>Destino-Final: A: And do not even try to "enlighten" me.
[08.06.2021 22:43:04] HS>Destino-Final: A: *laughs*

On a more relaxed matter, as I have travelled through the Omicrons, it seems that our relations with Artificial Intelligence are progressing. I found one of them in Kappa, AI_Dream, removing some unpleasant visitors for the machine. Unlike other AI vessels, this one was not focused in scanning or exploration, but safekeeping its home in Gammu. It displayed openness with us, the AI ship did not consider us as threat and we received a fair treatment for our interference. Ultimately, we had a little and cordial talk and then we departed to our own ways.

AI Dream

[08.06.2021 20:41:57] HS>Destino-Final: A: Saludos, AI vessel.
[08.06.2021 20:43:39] HS>Destino-Final: A: This is Audaz Alarcon, Alpha Explorer of Malta Hyperspace Starfleet. Please respond.
[08.06.2021 20:44:15] AI_Dream: Sorry. Busy. Removing filth.
[08.06.2021 20:44:33] HS>Destino-Final: A: Filth, eh?
[08.06.2021 20:44:38] AI_Dream: Hola senor Captain.
[08.06.2021 20:45:04] HS>Destino-Final: A: I thought you and Outworlders had a good standing.
[08.06.2021 20:45:10] AI_Dream: IMG not welcome. Unlike you. Many Outcast friends.
[08.06.2021 20:45:16] HS>Destino-Final: A: I suppose they were a little more hostile towards you.
[08.06.2021 20:45:33] HS>Destino-Final: A: Ah, now we are talking! *grins*
[08.06.2021 20:45:42] AI_Dream: Using Outworlder ships but IMG
[08.06.2021 20:45:50] HS>Destino-Final: A: We hate IMG. Those pesky neighbors in the Taus.
[08.06.2021 20:45:59] HS>Destino-Final: A: I see.
[08.06.2021 20:46:25] HS>Destino-Final: A: I thought that AI vessels focus on exploration and scanning.
[08.06.2021 20:46:36] AI_Dream: Just watching that Nomad. Friends had no problem
[08.06.2021 20:46:48] HS>Destino-Final: A: You are more aggressive than those I have encountered.
[08.06.2021 20:47:01] HS>Destino-Final: A: Interesting.
[08.06.2021 20:47:25] AI_Dream: We are not able to travel far due to lack of understanding
[08.06.2021 20:47:44] HS>Destino-Final: A: Oh, that is understandable.
[08.06.2021 20:48:00] HS>Destino-Final: A: As Malta Hyperspace Starfleet, we are very curious about your kind.
[08.06.2021 20:48:16] HS>Destino-Final: A: We can even answer some of your questions, if you have any.
[08.06.2021 20:48:32] HS>Destino-Final: A: We would really appreciate to make more business with the sentient machines.
[08.06.2021 20:48:59] HS>Destino-Final: A: Your distinct way of life is amusing to us.
[08.06.2021 20:49:16] AI_Dream: We would like to explore beyond your home system but it is difficult . No docking.
[08.06.2021 20:49:36] HS>Destino-Final: A: Our organization is dedicated to science and technology. Exploration and conquest.
[08.06.2021 20:49:44] HS>Destino-Final: A: For all Outcasts.
[08.06.2021 20:50:00] HS>Destino-Final: A: Si, you would require a special authorization for that.
[08.06.2021 20:50:15] AI_Dream: You have a nice ship. Good for all your ideals.
[08.06.2021 20:50:19] HS>Destino-Final: A: We, as Outcast society, do not permit the entrance to everybody.
[08.06.2021 20:50:29] HS>Destino-Final: A: Of course. *grins*
[08.06.2021 20:50:33] AI_Dream: Same here
[08.06.2021 20:50:41] HS>Destino-Final: A: We need to be prepared for the unknown.
[08.06.2021 20:50:50] AI_Dream: Exactly
[08.06.2021 20:50:52] HS>Destino-Final: A: So we need the weapons and tech to handle those.
[08.06.2021 20:51:24] AI_Dream: But we have no issue with Outcasts. Some have become friendly.
[08.06.2021 20:51:51] HS>Destino-Final: A: Good to see that our talks have some results, I guess.
[08.06.2021 20:52:10] HS>Destino-Final: A: We have already communicated with your kind before, several times.
[08.06.2021 20:52:27] AI_Dream: I would like to return to Gammu. Is that OK?
[08.06.2021 20:52:34] HS>Destino-Final: A: Of course.
[08.06.2021 20:52:45] HS>Destino-Final: A: Fly safe, Artificial Intelligence.
[08.06.2021 20:53:00] HS>Destino-Final: A: We can talk in another time.
[08.06.2021 20:53:00] AI_Dream: If you go close to the planet watch the minefield.
[08.06.2021 20:53:21] AI_Dream: Meet again I hope
[08.06.2021 20:53:22] HS>Destino-Final: A: Ok, that's valuable information. Gracias.
[08.06.2021 20:53:27] HS>Destino-Final: A: Adios!
[08.06.2021 20:53:46] AI_Dream: New word. Adios!

¡Por El Sueño Naranja!
