***Open Report***

One week has passed since our exile from Liberty and the ThunderBay is already feeling the strain. Maintenance has become troublesome with the decreased amount of crew on board but somehow our new chief is getting work done.

We've had no major dealings with the Nomads, nor any other threats however this is partly due to me keeping the Ship near the freeport in a defensive stance. We cannot afford to waste resources at this time, since we have no way to replenish them once gone.

Many curious vessels have come by, demanding to know why a Naval vessel was in their space, most were understanding once the situation was explained however.

We've encounter in particular a group known as "Apocalypse" a group of rebels of sorts.. who immediately asked that I and my ship join them in their mission. It didn't take long to refuse their request, and I immediately seen what happened to them.

Just a day ago I witnessed their fleet being destroyed, I held back and stayed clear of the combat radius however did ask if any of the damaged Order vessels needed aid afterwords, luckily casualties were low.

A vessel known as "Surveyor_1" also appeared one day, its pilot seemed to be a rather sad gentlemen named Michael, who had lost everything, was searching for his wife. He left the freeport in the middle of a Keeper attack on the system, despite warnings he left, claiming his wife was calling him... I'm not sure what happened to him or his vessel. I pray he found his peace, somewhere in these lonely stars.

Finally, last night our scanners detected an altercation between the Order and Navy. I personally decided to set a course to where the fighting was, and maybe reason with the Navy captains to turn back and cease hostilities. This proved a mistake as the LSF and Navy had set up a trap, and left a Dreadnought guarding the entrances to the Alaska system. Luckily the Captain seemed somewhat sympathetic, and a sensor malfunction on his ship allowed us to power our jumpdrive and escape without conflict. At this point we were escorted to FP11, where we sit now.

I personally do not know what our future is, but it will most definitely be defending liberty and humanity, hopefully with some new friends... but we'll see how talks with the Order progress...

To the grave if I must
Because it’s flag that I love
And a flag that I trust
