Hail Fleet Admiral Garan.

Your hesitation is understandable, the Orders relation with the LSF is...mercurial at best. Some cells get along with us just fine, others hate our guts. I had hoped that over the years more would have learned to set aside their old grudges in order to focus on the Nomads, especially now they're operating so close to Liberty, but alas. At least it was good to see some still saw the benefits of working together.

That said, l am equally, if not moreso, glad that the Crayter Republic is taking this matter seriously.

We have long considered Inverness a compromised system due to the presence of Auxesia, the system hosting Vagrant Nomads and more of their infected followers only further confirms these suspicions. Regarding these 'Wendigo', it won't surprise you to hear we have run into them as well, infact one of our heavy assets chased a compromised Liberty war vessel in Galileo, nearly putting it down before it was whisked away to the Vespucci system by large Vagrant vessels. Given the proximity of the Vespucci system to Inverness, it would make sense to assume they belong to the same group of Nomads. The infected vessel was severely damaged, a small silver lining, but unfortunately it did manage to slip away under the cover of the larger Nomad warforms.

Regarding Jericho, as you are no doubt aware the Crayter Republic and the Order have monitored Jericho for years, to the point where the Atum was even stationed in its orbit. The eventual expedition to the surface, dangerous as it was, resulted in finding what appeared to be various schematics, notably of some sort of power cell and a planetary shield. Unfortunately Human technology is nowhere near the level of being able to use these designs, not yet at least, but given that a large shield now surrounds Jericho itself after finding such a schematic there? It seems quite the coincidence.

For now we suggest maintaining a blockade of Jericho, Order field agents are present to help investigate the situation, please coordinate with them on site as needed.
Rest assured they will be understanding if you need to 'maintain appearances' in front of any LSF agents,

Meanwhile our best scientists will continue studying the schematics and hopefully find a way to create an opening in the shielding that we can exploit. Should you have any reputable experts in the field of Xeno-Engineering in the Crayter Republic, it would perhaps be beneficial to get them involved as well.

For Humanity,
Admiral Solandros.
