Guten Abend Officers,
during a routine patrol in the New Berlin system Revenant forwarded information about an inbound Crayter vessel with a jump drive. While preparing for its arrival i consulted our laws and found no exceptions for any of their vessels within our borders.
The DLX Border Worlds Train "=CR=ISE-Demeter" was spotted in Frankfurt, heading towards New Berlin. I was waiting for it near Bonn Station, ordered it to cut its engines and performed a scan. As customary at this point, Revenant's intel proved to be correct. The vessel was in possession of one Seris II Jump Drive Module, hauled 4300 units of Industrial Material and checked out as Crayter. They complied to an extent, but just as i was about to inquire further another contact showed up on long range scanners. Readings inconclusive at first, up until i managed to get a few klicks closer. Despite my order to remain in New Berlin's orbit, the Crayter pilot used the opportunity to slip away.
With a Nomad form roughly 10 klicks out from New Berlin my attention was redirected from said pilot to the alien lifeform, carefully monitoring what it was doing. The situation reminded me of an earlier incident at approximately the same spot, with a similarly sized Nomad form channeling high amounts of energy. Seeing caution as the better option this close to New Berlin, i opted to discern motives first and attempted to draw it away from civilian and commercial targets. This plan did not work out and current company opened fire, prompting the Nomad to vanish right then and there. We kept a close eye on the coordinates it disappeared at, but no further contacts showed up on radar.
Shared frequency with Auxo vessels [10.02.2023 21:13:41] A/)-Revenant: Crayter headed towards New Berlin.
[10.02.2023 21:13:45] Bluefin: I'm sure you'll enjoy the perfect labeling though. [10.02.2023 21:13:46] A/)-Revenant: Transport with a Jump Drive.
[10.02.2023 21:13:58] Mind.Infiltrator: Is it heading via the jump gate?
[10.02.2023 21:14:04] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Worth a try? Tsk. There is so man-... *She sighs, eyeing the trade lane connection to Frankfurt.* [10.02.2023 21:14:13] A/)-Revenant: It is on the lanes.
[10.02.2023 21:14:17] A/)-Revenant: The device in question is not mounted.
[10.02.2023 21:14:24] Maroon.Specter: I get it.
[10.02.2023 21:14:34] Maroon.Specter: I'll leave you two to your business
[10.02.2023 21:14:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Business is incoming, rather... [10.02.2023 21:14:58] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: What is Crayter doing here...
[10.02.2023 21:15:04] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: How close is it?
[10.02.2023 21:15:04] Bluefin: Is it...? [10.02.2023 21:15:05] A/)-Revenant: Taking supplies.
[10.02.2023 21:15:11] Mind.Infiltrator: It is heading towards the planet
[10.02.2023 21:15:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Cut your engines there, Crayter vessel.
[10.02.2023 21:15:58] =CR=ISE-Demeter: Copy
[10.02.2023 21:16:22] Bluefin: Huh. Cool tech.
[10.02.2023 21:16:41] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'd like an explanation what brought you here. I have not been informed to expect Crayter Republic vessels within our House.
[10.02.2023 21:17:01] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If there are exemptions ... you might help clearing this up by any references you got?
[10.02.2023 21:18:29] Bluefin: Their radio must be broken.
[10.02.2023 21:18:40] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhhm. It worked just fine a moment ago.
[10.02.2023 21:18:49] Mind.Infiltrator: Quite a long delay here
[10.02.2023 21:19:13] Bluefin: *she waves at the bridge of the transport* Hey!
[10.02.2023 21:19:43] =CR=ISE-Demeter: The radio is back online
[10.02.2023 21:20:05] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: How wunderbar. Willkommen back in the realm of those that can communicate.
[10.02.2023 21:20:53] Mind.Infiltrator: I suppose I shall leave for a while [10.02.2023 21:21:10] 2023-02-10 21:21:10 SMT Traffic control alert: Mind.Infiltrator has requested to dock
[10.02.2023 21:21:10] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That is up to you, Mind.Infiltrator. Auf Wiedersehen in that case.
[10.02.2023 21:21:36] Bluefin: Are you uh....going to answer the questions the nice officer asked you?
[10.02.2023 21:22:09] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'd highly suggest to do so. It'll save us both trouble. And work. And everything else.
[10.02.2023 21:22:44] payme: Good evening.
[10.02.2023 21:22:48] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... attention, contact. Th-...
[10.02.2023 21:22:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: What...
[10.02.2023 21:22:52] Bluefin: Hello uh...
[10.02.2023 21:22:55] Bluefin: What indeed.
[10.02.2023 21:23:03] =CR=ISE-Demeter: So... erm, anyway, officer, if there's a trouble, let's follow the procedure.
[10.02.2023 21:23:25] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: There is indeed trouble - you will remain where you are Crayter vessel. Your presence here is forbidden by law. So is part of
[10.02.2023 21:23:27] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: your equipment.
[10.02.2023 21:23:28] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: But.
[10.02.2023 21:23:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: We got something else to worry about right now.
[10.02.2023 21:23:55] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: ... what is it doing...?
[10.02.2023 21:24:05] Unidentified: [It appears to be observing.]
[10.02.2023 21:24:20] Bluefin: Well, at least it's not a big one.
[10.02.2023 21:24:20] Unidentified: [Upon closer inspection, the lifeform appears to be lacking certain... circuits in its body.]
[10.02.2023 21:24:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Doesn't make it all that much better.
[10.02.2023 21:25:14] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ohh i don't like those readings i get.
[10.02.2023 21:25:44] Bluefin: I think it's doing a hyperspace thing.
[10.02.2023 21:26:00] Unidentified:
[10.02.2023 21:26:11] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mhhh... i-...
[10.02.2023 21:26:39] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Standing orders aren't, however.
[10.02.2023 21:27:17] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: *Sighs* Well ... time to deal with this i'm afraid. Even though whatever it is doing concerns me.
[10.02.2023 21:27:24] Bluefin: Traudel, I don't know if you should-
[10.02.2023 21:27:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Well aware, where is -... there is!
[10.02.2023 21:27:43] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Excellent. Revenant, i could use some proper knowledge here.
[10.02.2023 21:27:55] A/)-Revenant: Hmm.
[10.02.2023 21:28:33] A/)-Revenant: What do you wish to know?
[10.02.2023 21:28:49] Bluefin: How about what the fuck this thing is doing?
[10.02.2023 21:28:59] A/)-Revenant: Well, it is clearly looking at you.
[10.02.2023 21:29:03] Unidentified:
[10.02.2023 21:29:17] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Will ...whatever it does right now ... turn into an even bigger mess when i have to inevatibly have to chase it away?
[10.02.2023 21:29:36] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Last time we had something like this around that looked ... for a lack of better word ... 'similarly flashy' ... the energy
[10.02.2023 21:29:42] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: readings were off the charts.
[10.02.2023 21:29:56] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I'd like to not cause a small supernova...
[10.02.2023 21:29:58] Lea.Kaufman: Oh nein nein nein. [10.02.2023 21:30:02] 2023-02-10 21:30:02 SMT Traffic control alert: Lea.Kaufman has requested to dock
[10.02.2023 21:30:14] Bluefin: We should make it go away, probably. Right? I mean....
[10.02.2023 21:31:09] A/)-Revenant: Well.
[10.02.2023 21:31:12] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: That is the idea. I only wish to know how bad it might get once i have to resort to weapons should it not turn immediately.
[10.02.2023 21:31:12] Unidentified:
[10.02.2023 21:31:31] Bluefin: Okay, that's really creepy. You felt that, right?
[10.02.2023 21:31:53] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Mh-mhm. Did. Almost since i spotted it first, ja...
[10.02.2023 21:32:07] Bluefin: Traudel, you're the one in charge here. What do you think we should do?
[10.02.2023 21:32:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Well i just asked and wait for hopefully soothing reassurance it will not cause a catastrophic energy wave or something else.
[10.02.2023 21:33:02] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: So ... please Revenant? Now would be the perfect time.
[10.02.2023 21:33:13] A/)-Revenant: [sighs]
[10.02.2023 21:33:21] A/)-Revenant: I was going to enjoy my warm beverage.
[10.02.2023 21:33:23] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Ja ... nein? Maybe?
[10.02.2023 21:33:29] Mind.Infiltrator: I am back. Now what happened to the Crayter transport?
[10.02.2023 21:33:29] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Freelancer - keep your distance.
[10.02.2023 21:33:45] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Had the perfect distraction to slip away i suppose.
[10.02.2023 21:33:51] A/)-Revenant: [Almost sarcastically] Perhaps we should kindly ask them to leave?
[10.02.2023 21:34:16] Mind.Infiltrator: Miss Habermeyer, what happened to the Crayter transport you stopped a while ago?
[10.02.2023 21:34:28] payme: seems like its waiting for something ...
[10.02.2023 21:34:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: All i need to know is if it will ... ... *Sighs* Might as well. You! Void or whatever. Vacate the premises.
[10.02.2023 21:34:44] Bluefin: It didn't answer any questions and slipped away when we were distracted by the nomad.
[10.02.2023 21:34:59] Points: Blasted ion storms.
[10.02.2023 21:35:11] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: If i have to do this i'd prefer doing that not this close to New Berlin...
[10.02.2023 21:35:17] Unidentified:
[10.02.2023 21:35:29] Mind.Infiltrator: I do see a Xenobiotic in the distance
[10.02.2023 21:35:33] A/)-Revenant: Oh. Ooohhh... Eugh. Is that what I sound like?
[10.02.2023 21:35:33] Bluefin: Wh- okay, that was extra weird.
[10.02.2023 21:35:49] Bluefin: I mean, sort of. Not really. But sort of.
[10.02.2023 21:35:59] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Considering the circumstances that was the nicest way you get.
[10.02.2023 21:36:00] Points: Oh, no...
[10.02.2023 21:36:47] Unidentified:
[10.02.2023 21:36:56] Points: N-no. Stay away.
[10.02.2023 21:37:34] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Fear? No, respect? Maybe. For what may happen if i simply go ahead with standing orders. Do me the favor to depart wherever you
[10.02.2023 21:37:35] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: came form.
[10.02.2023 21:37:46] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: From even, hmf.

[10.02.2023 21:38:10] [RM]Bmn-Jurgen.Fischer: Guten ta.........the hell?
[10.02.2023 21:38:14] A/)-Revenant: They want you to leave Rheinland.
[10.02.2023 21:38:14] Bluefin: Okay, enough of that. You told it several times, Traudel.

[10.02.2023 21:38:42] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Wh-... ... whew. It -... everyone in one piece?
[10.02.2023 21:38:50] Bluefin: Somewhere far away, hopefully.
[10.02.2023 21:38:51] Mind.Infiltrator: That one just phased out of existence
[10.02.2023 21:38:52] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: I ... ... guess.
[10.02.2023 21:38:54] Points: Why must this happen.
[10.02.2023 21:38:57] Points: Why must this always happen.
[10.02.2023 21:39:00] A/)-Revenant: What?
[10.02.2023 21:39:01] Points: I'm out.
[10.02.2023 21:39:12] [RM]Bmn-Jurgen.Fischer: What transpired here exactly?
[10.02.2023 21:39:14] payme: Wha .... what did just happen?
[10.02.2023 21:39:18] Bluefin: It was fucking with us.
[10.02.2023 21:39:39] Bluefin: It didn't intend to leave at all. It just wanted to like...seep into our minds slowly.
[10.02.2023 21:39:48] A/)-Revenant: It was observing, curious about us.
[10.02.2023 21:39:50] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: The timing with that Crayter vessel .... was peculiar.
[10.02.2023 21:40:08] Bluefin: Yeah that Crayter vessel just explained nothing and escaped.
[10.02.2023 21:40:20] Mind.Infiltrator: What a typical fool it is
[10.02.2023 21:40:28] Bluefin: But hey. That's law enforcement biz. I don't care about that.
[10.02.2023 21:40:30] A/)-Revenant: Well...
[10.02.2023 21:41:46] A/)-Revenant: Perhaps you should all return to orbit
[10.02.2023 21:42:02] payme: I agree.
[10.02.2023 21:42:16] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Perhaps... if something returns i do not want to be right around or ... in it.
[10.02.2023 21:42:28] A/)-Revenant: Trau, head back to orbit.
[10.02.2023 21:42:30] A/)-Revenant: Just incase.
[10.02.2023 21:42:49] [RM]Obl-Trau.Habermeyer: Right on my way.
Für den Kaiser! Für das Volk! Für Rheinland!
