Hi.

Initiate Freud spotted an Outcast Convoy moving through Cortez, so we scrambled fighters to follow. We weren't able to stop the cardamine shipment, but we did catch them on the way back. They were accompanied by a swarm of local Lane Hackers, so most of us engaged those while a small group of fighters focused on the convoy. We shot down one, but then we had more company.

It seems like the Xenos are working with the Outcasts now. Kinda hypocritical—they really have fallen far. A swarm of Xeno fighters ambushed our wing while we were already worn down, stopping our interception and letting the surviving Outcasts and their Rogue transport go free. A couple were able to restock, but most of us were caught split apart and low on damage. It was bad.

At the end, I was the last one standing, and my Falchion was malfunctioning badly. I got out just as we received a distress call from a Crayterian cruiser, the Leopold I, that they were ambushed at Cordova by the Harmony itself. Thankfully, though, there was backup, and formidable backup at that. The Auxesian Nightshade, our own Omega, and an independent ship called the Gridskipper caught the Xeno fighters there. It was a slaughter; the 7 against 3 ended with 6 Xenos down to our 2, with the Xeno M.Hill limping out with damaged craft while Gridskipper broke off. Harmony was peeled off of the Crayterian ship, which was instructed to report our assistance to their command structure; we can maybe use this to secure something with them for the Ven'gyr if we're very lucky, but ultimately this was about the Xenos.
