There are several incidents to report from our shakedown voyage.

Our flight out of Alaska picked up an unknown signature within Zone 21 upon connection with Chadwick Station's battlenet. At the time, it was just a neuralnet address. We saw nothing on our way out.

The shakedown cruise was intended to help us get acquainted to Pennsylvania. The Erienite resistance is still festering, if somewhat abated. While searching the Meadeville, a rather unique Orbital Spa and Cruise liner named "The Stagecoach" jumped in and announced that it was selling alcohol. Notably, the liner seemed to be advertising to pirates. I'm inclined to mark this off as an... interesting marketing strategy.

The liner was not hauling any contraband, despite its' less-than-compliant captain.

Upon our return to New York, we joined Chadwick's defense patrols until a drydock was cleared for our landing.

Around 17:30, the local battlenet once again received a proximity alert. The intruder was a pilot named Catherine White.

The full extent of Miss White's interrogation will be attached to this transmission and reported elsewhere, but for now I will go over the salient information.

Catherine White appears to be a new pilot. She followed an unknown ship into the field [most likely triggering our first alert], whom she lost track of. Miss white claims to have been in the field looking for the unknown ship out of concern for them.

Miss White came up with several names for this unknown ship:

"Candy",
"Candy 1",

Finally settling on "Canary 1-1".

As Miss White had not fully breached Zone 21, it was decided to recognize this instance as an "honest mistake" and escort her out of the Navy and Security Force's area of operations. Before leaving, Miss White inquired, in so many words, what it would take to join the Republic's Security Forces.

Pending a fuller investigation into Miss White, and recognizing the larger issue of an unknown ship at large within Zone 21 (and potentially Alaska), it has been decided to extend her the opportunity to prove herself to House Liberty.

Agent John Blau has been instructed to proceed to Valley Forge Flight School. There, he will pose as a performance evaluator. Miss White will be instructed to seek him out. Once she has made contact, he will proceed with a faux recruitment regime to gather more information from her. Should she prove useful, she may be recruited as an asset.

Regardless of Agent Blau's true evaluation of her, Catherine White is to be considered a person of interest, and watched closely for the foreseeable future.

An inquiry will be put to the security apparatus at large as to "Canary 1-1's" identity. We will proceed to interdict them within restricted areas until they are cleared as one of our own.

The Stagecoach

[25.11.2023 15:43:39] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Drinking before 10am makes you a pirate not an alcholic, Tip-sea Tours, now serving here and there
[25.11.2023 15:43:57] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: ...Traffic received, OS&C. Please cut your engines.
[25.11.2023 15:44:19] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: You'll have to speak up officer, I can't hear you from /way/ back there
[25.11.2023 15:45:01] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Once more, then. Cut your engines and await inspection.
[25.11.2023 15:45:11] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Hurry up, I don't have all day
[25.11.2023 15:45:18] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Unfortunate.
[25.11.2023 15:45:25] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Moving at the speed of smell
[25.11.2023 15:45:33] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: ...Agreed.
[25.11.2023 15:45:35] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: You'd give LPI a run for their credits on slowness
[25.11.2023 15:45:49] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Are you trying to apply, is that why your are taking so long to talk so slowly?
[25.11.2023 15:46:14] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Who is the captain of this vessel?
[25.11.2023 15:46:28] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: That would be me, Larry Loggins, the one who's on a timetable
[25.11.2023 15:46:33] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Not that you would understand that
[25.11.2023 15:46:45] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Where are you off to in such a hurry, Mr. Loggins?
[25.11.2023 15:47:01] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Manhatten, like usual, have you never worked this beat before?
[25.11.2023 15:47:05] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: We're hear daily
[25.11.2023 15:47:15] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Not, uh, like this. [Referring to the task of conducting a cargo inspection on such a large vessel.]
[25.11.2023 15:47:24] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Ugh, why do I get stuck with the fresh meat
[25.11.2023 15:47:56] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Are you aware of the general prohibition on vessels such as yours, Mr. Loggins?
[25.11.2023 15:48:07] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Oribtal has an exception
[25.11.2023 15:48:14] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: For /years/ at this point
[25.11.2023 15:48:31] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You'll have to wait a moment longer for me to check the database, then. Standby.
[25.11.2023 15:49:00] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: I'm looking at the laws right now, the word Pilgrim Liner doesn't appear within them
[25.11.2023 15:49:04] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: call yourself an LSF officer
[25.11.2023 15:49:57] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Mm. You appear to be correct. Our apologies.
[25.11.2023 15:50:14] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Like I said, lucky me to get stuck with the fresh meat
[25.11.2023 15:50:28] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Can't believe they let you pilot a gunboat with zero understanding of the laws you are enforcing
[25.11.2023 15:50:40] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: One last question - I can see tht you're hauling a substantial amount of alcohol.
[25.11.2023 15:50:51] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: What do you expect the guests to drink?
[25.11.2023 15:50:55] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Water?
[25.11.2023 15:50:58] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Have you been drinking yourself, captain?
[25.11.2023 15:51:07] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Orbital Policy Prohibits drinking on the clock
[25.11.2023 15:51:19] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: and tours of duty for Captains are for a year at a time
[25.11.2023 15:51:25] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: Haven't touched the stuff
[25.11.2023 15:51:47] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Very well. On your way.
[25.11.2023 15:52:02] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Apologies for the holdup, captain. Safe flying.
[25.11.2023 15:52:11] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: Larry: ta-ta
[25.11.2023 15:52:26] OS&C|TE-The.Stagecoach: A drink a day keeps reality at bay, Spa and Cruise, once you cruise you just can't lose

[25.11.2023 17:18:08] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Unknown ship, cut your engines immediately and transmit identification.
[25.11.2023 17:18:23] Catherine_White: I ur... ah shit... cutting engines.
[25.11.2023 17:19:41] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You are currently in violation of Article 2 of Liberty laws - violation of Zone 21.
[25.11.2023 17:20:07] Catherine_White: One sec... sorry... getting that identification urm... Catherine White. sir? Maam? Article 2? Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry!
[25.11.2023 17:20:36] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: The pilot of this ship is named Catherine White?
[25.11.2023 17:21:14] Catherine_White: That's, ur... that's correct. I'm just sending my citizen identification over now (attached to this transmission).
[25.11.2023 17:21:26] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Signal received.
[25.11.2023 17:21:31] Catherine_White: Sir? Ma'am? I'm sorry, I ur... I didn't know this would cause such a fuss.
[25.11.2023 17:21:53] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You are currently trespassing in heavily restricted Liberty space.
[25.11.2023 17:21:59] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Please explain yourself.
[25.11.2023 17:22:11] Catherine_White: *audible gulp*
[25.11.2023 17:22:13] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Coming clean immediately is your best way out of this.
[25.11.2023 17:22:52] Catherine_White: I, urm... ok. I was following a Freelancer vessel earlier this cycle. Candy 1-1? I think, something similar. I saw it headed -
[25.11.2023 17:23:27] Catherine_White: this way... then later I saw the mines. I got concerned,and tried to find the ship. All I found was this pass. I chickened out-
[25.11.2023 17:23:35] Catherine_White: then... came back just now to try and find them.
[25.11.2023 17:24:07] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: In no uncertain terms, this was a mistake. But it could be seen as an honest one.
[25.11.2023 17:24:34] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You said there was another ship which entered this field? They displayed as a freelancer?
[25.11.2023 17:25:23] Catherine_White: I do apologise for that Ma'am. Sir. I'll come clean when I say my curiosity does often get the better of me. They were -
[25.11.2023 17:25:32] Catherine_White: flying some sort of transport I think.
[25.11.2023 17:26:19] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Is this the full account of your interactions with them? You merely saw them flying in and decided to follow?
[25.11.2023 17:27:06] Catherine_White: I did say hello to them first at the West Point lane crossing. That's all I know, but when you see a ship flying into mines -
[25.11.2023 17:27:14] Catherine_White: well... does it matter if it only hello?
[25.11.2023 17:27:27] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: In this instance, it does. Did they say anything at all?
[25.11.2023 17:28:00] Catherine_White: hmm... let me see. I keep a black box log of all my comms. Just me just a moment? *She gets up fromt he vid-screen*
[25.11.2023 17:28:10] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Acknowledged.
[25.11.2023 17:28:31] Catherine_White: "Canary!" *she calls from the back of the cockpit. "the ships name was Canary, not candy!"
[25.11.2023 17:29:03] Catherine_White: "Canary 1-1"... I hate to be a disapopintment but the log's a bit lame. I say 'heya'... they say 'heya', and that's it.
[25.11.2023 17:29:09] Catherine_White: (*disappointment
[25.11.2023 17:29:20] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Acknowledged. Thank you for your candor.
[25.11.2023 17:29:24] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Standby.
[25.11.2023 17:29:36] Catherine_White: Mind if I sit by instead? *chuckles a little*
[25.11.2023 17:30:15] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Catherine White, this appears to be an honest mistake, so here's what we'll do.
[25.11.2023 17:30:43] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You will be escorted out of Zone 21. You will not return. Ever. Understood?
[25.11.2023 17:31:06] Catherine_White: "...I... I understand... Ma'am? Sir? May I ask I question before complying?"
[25.11.2023 17:31:09] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You will proceed now back to Norfolk Shipyards by impulse drive alone.
[25.11.2023 17:31:21] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You will then take the tradelane to Fort Bush, where our encounter ends.
[25.11.2023 17:31:27] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You may ask.
[25.11.2023 17:31:31] Catherine_White: "Not that I ain't complying now!" *nervous chuckle* "But you know what I mean? Thanks."
[25.11.2023 17:31:54] Catherine_White: "What ur... what do I need to do, or learn, or be... to be able to know and go what's past this point?"
[25.11.2023 17:32:14] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: ...Standby.
[25.11.2023 17:32:35] Catherine_White: "I shall." *She sits down in the cockpit and fastens in, nervous as all heck.*
[25.11.2023 17:33:56] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Why do you ask, Miss White?
[25.11.2023 17:34:40] Catherine_White: *She goes to speak, but hesitates for a moment before clearly changing her answer* "I trust that this security is for the -
[25.11.2023 17:35:10] Catherine_White: best of the Libertonian people and I care about that. My space legs new but... I want to be a part of it somehow. Ya'know?"
[25.11.2023 17:35:23] Catherine_White: "Trust's a hard thing so... where do I start earning it?"
[25.11.2023 17:36:06] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: The Republic guards its secrets well, Miss White.
[25.11.2023 17:36:15] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You are correct that trust is earned.
[25.11.2023 17:37:04] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: If you wish to serve in the Republic's best interests, you can be judged on your merits.
[25.11.2023 17:37:22] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Begin your flight to Norfolk. By impulse.
[25.11.2023 17:37:50] Catherine_White: *She slowly nods, and then gives a warm smile* "Yes Sir. Ma'am. All the best t'ya."
[25.11.2023 17:38:31] Catherine_White: *settles into her cockpit with a thoughtful expression, having not turned the comms off herself.*
[25.11.2023 17:41:39] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Approach the tradelane to Fort Bush. You may take it and await us at the end.
[25.11.2023 17:41:57] Catherine_White: "Oh, you're co- yes Sir. Ma'am."
[25.11.2023 17:42:50] Death: VG3R-6 was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[25.11.2023 17:43:10] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Where is your destination, Miss White?
[25.11.2023 17:43:34] Catherine_White: "In all honesty, Sir/Ma'am, I don't have one. I'll find one though if ya'need me to."
[25.11.2023 17:43:46] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Find one. Stay out of militry areas.
[25.11.2023 17:43:59] Catherine_White: "Yes Sir. Ma'am."
[25.11.2023 17:44:06] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: The Republic of Liberty has taken notice of you now. You will be given a chance to serve if you wish.
[25.11.2023 17:44:23] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: Ensure what we see is nothing but the best of you.
[25.11.2023 17:44:46] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: You will receive an invitation at a later date.
[25.11.2023 17:44:51] LSF-Lansdale.Devil: R: We're gone.
[25.11.2023 17:44:59] Catherine_White: *her eyes noticably light up and with a smile she nods.* "Yes Sir,Ma'am. You'll only be getting the best from me. Safe travels.
