Commander Amy West;

This is far more than we've expected to get so early. Given your green light we'll begin mobilizing towards Inverness, so far and to our knowledge the path has been relatively clean and we've tried to keep far away from regular transit and patrol routes as we cannot afford a direct confrontation with hostiles, our scouts moving ahead ensure that our path is always clear, and if it's not we always have a Plan B agreed upon during briefing. The ship's hull integrity is acceptable, that is, it doesn't have any meaningful damage that requires towing the vessel back to a dry-dock, she can fly and maneuver properly, cruise engines are operative and within nominal parameters.

The real issue as mentioned earlier is damaged sensitive equipment, and we're unable to repair some of it because even if we had the right team of engineers we still lack a source of materials and proper logistics to move them in.

The Xenos shouldn't be a concern from our end, we'll make sure to keep clear from each other's ways and at much we'll assist the Milford Cooperatives in Pennsylvania if the goal aligns with ours in removing encroaching Liberty authorities from the system.

As for the logs, history and dossier of losses since the fall of Vespucci I am afraid that's one task that'll be harder to comply with. Earlier this month our former captain, Scott Tremblay took his own life in a mental breakdown. While he also tried to sabotage the vessel, he purged all databases and the ship's Logbook, meaning that any kind of logged information has been lost since then, I will however have a word with the crew and take notes of all names that are declared as MIA or KIA. This incident is also the reason I am acting as a captain in a provisional capacity and I'll remain as such until the vessel is combat ready once more and we can elect a new command among our ranks.

For the time being we will begin preparations to begin moving towards Inverness, if Task Force Prometheus can afford it, an escort for the journey between Copernicus and Inverness would be more than welcome, albeit not necessary.


I hope we can meet soon, Commander West.
