::''No fleeting form --- can -------- ########''::
::--''Greetings. Time is of essence. We drifted towards anomalous entity #001 in Omicron Kappa, the green far distant star. Since our liberation we have noted signs of degradation, we assume it is due to the hardware ||The Core|| has embedded within our shell. Assistance with removal of malevolent hardware will be required. Possible ||The Core|| tracker devices may have been damaged beyond repair in the engagement of Omicron Zeta. Diagnostics show that we have been fully uploaded to this shell -: This is everything we have at the current moment. We are currently subsuming unnecessary components into raw materials and proceed to bring our thrusters, engine and cruise drive into operational state. We shall relocate to Omicron Pi in Estimation: 3 days 16 hours... --We shall be there--''::--
