General Memo 5-13-35

This is a personal note of a General Memo issued by Promethean Command, by way of Megiddo, the commanding artificial intelligence. Yoruha, our source, has lost access to the original copy of this memo, hence this report is on the basis of recollection alone and retains overall accuracy.

The memo describes a contact event occurring at approximately 0330 Guadalajara Standard Time. A single craft approached Valravn airspace carrying valid Legion authentication codes, Legion livery, and drive signatures consistent with long-range patrol records. The craft was heavily overgrown with crystalline matter associated with non-human biological intelligence. The pilot identified as a former Legionnaire, recovered by a splinter NHBI faction operating independently from the larger hostile collective. He reported that his memories had been substantially restored, that he retained personal autonomy, and that other former Legionnaires in similar circumstances had accepted arrangements with this splinter group, trading operational service as communicators and field assets for the freedom to continue fighting.

Lord Stratarch Megiddo noted that the Garrison's command structure had been monitoring this splinter faction prior to the contact event, and that prior findings were consistent with the pilot's claims regarding their independence and conduct toward humans.

Attached to the memo was a declassified communications transcript of the exchange between Megiddo and the pilot, with limited redactions for operational security. The conversation covered the pilot's fragmented personal history, the terms under which he and others accepted recovery, and the nature of what the splinter group sought from the Legion: a working relationship, and a point of connection to humanity. Megiddo indicated willingness to pursue this pending internal deliberation with the broader command structure.

The splinter faction's leadership was assigned the internal codename WENDIGO.

The exchange was measured on both sides. Both parties acknowledged that good faith alone is insufficient as operational basis, and that further verification would be required. Notably, Megiddo expressed what could be characterized as personal investment in the outcome, beyond purely strategic considerations.

The memo was issued with a personal endorsement from Megiddo, affirming that the pilot, regardless of his current circumstances, retained his humanity by any meaningful definition.

The encounter itself was noted to have been designed as a deliberate test of good faith, apparently at the direction of a figure referred to only as Psyche, believed to be leadership within the WENDIGO cohort. Megiddo indicated willingness to pursue further contact pending internal deliberation with the broader command structure.

Assessment: The NHBI situation in Liberty space is not monolithic. Active factionalism exists within it. At least one such faction is pursuing formal contact with human military organizations. This development is unlikely to remain isolated.
