Entry From: Zylar Vespertine
Vessel: Eventide
Location at time of Log Entry: Freeport 14, Inverness
Subject: New Discoveries

We had a busy day tonight and some interesting conversations with some colorful things. No I'm not referring to Nomads. We'd have blown them up before having a conversation with them. No I'm speaking of colorful in the vein of interesting.

We began our night like any other night, we stocked up, and left the Freeport in search of Nomads to hunt. A few sorties into our evening, and we came across our old Order friend, "Hi-1". Although tonight he was on another ship named "Hi-4". I'm not sure of the significance of the naming conventions. I might have to ask him later for clarification on that if I'm cleared for that knowledge. We discussed a few things during combat. The Nomad bombers weren't posing much of a threat to either of our ships, so it was easy enough to kill them without much effort. Before long, an AI vessel showed up followed by a DTR shortly thereafter.

Now, we're not openly hostile to the AI. In fact, we try to carry on some sort of conversation with them but it always ends up with them attacking. This one, however, began attacking Nomads and avoided attacking us. Once the entire Nomad threat was dealt with, the AI requested information. It appeared to be in some kind of "learning mode" or something as it kept querying different questions concerning us. Eventually, the AI left to perform a subroutine of mapping the system. We let it go as it didn't appear to be a threat. Shortly thereafter, another Order vessel appeared, this one an Osiris that appeared to not be apart of Overwatch. We discussed things with it's captain before mooring the Eventide at the station and taking our Gunboat, Mad-Hatter down to Inverness to see what the status was down there concerning the Nomad infestation in that system. As we entered the system, we noticed an old Freelancer friend, Cordosha, shooting at a Nomad fighter.

We had a brief discussion with him before getting down to business and taking care of some sorties from the Freeport here. He mentioned that he had to depart for a while and docked at the Freeport, no doubt to sleep off his combat fatigue. Learning how to fight these things can really take it out of you. I wished him well and docked as well. I've got a room for the night here. There is something about this system that is puzzling. It's very close to Liberty space which makes me uncomfortable, but it's more than that. I've got a weird feeling about this place. I might have to investigate more.

That's all for now. I'm going to get some rest. More tomorrow unless I decide to take a break...although, we can never take a break from the threat of the Nomads.
