Captain Belmont.

Hmm. I should have figured.

Okay, so there I was, hanging out near Barrier Gate with a friend and a few questionable people, when suddenly this thing showed up. It was just outside scanner range, but close enough to talk. It hung around being all spooky until the Technocrats decided to remove it. They succeeded in driving it away, but not before it disabled their lead craft.

A few hours later it appeared again. This time, I got a proper look.

And it started talking. And talking. And talking. It was odd, like every word was accompanied by a rattling echo inside my head. And the two freelancer ships that were with it were really... out of it. Kept going on about how they are hired to defend this MND ship next to them when it clearly had alien written all over it. I think it did something to their heads. It might have been doing something to my head. I can't ever be sure with these things.

Here, I got a closer look when we attacked it. Most of the footage from the fight is corrupted, but I got something reasonably clear. Unfortunately, those poor freelancers defended it with their lives, I'm guessing through no choice of their own.

So yeah, that's all I've got. Maybe you can let me know if this is of any use to you, or if I just wasted your time. If I did, I didn't mean to.
