Archon,

This report is to inform you of the beginning of the next phase. Orders were disseminated amongst all Reapers, and together we again took flight; our objective was intervention within the Corsair home system of Omicron Gamma.

The initial rendezvous point was set to be coordinate 6E in the Omicron Theta system; 'Enojado' took wing lead for this operation. As all of us converged on the coordinate, the Corsairs started to take notice. By the time I arrived, a Task Fleet commenced battle with fellow Reapers at the rendezvous point. Their craving for battle would be sated with a merciless execution. As one Corsair cruiser went down, new ones would arrive to reinforce their position; their single-mindedness in warfare was disturbing, and left us with our only recourse: swiftly deliver them from the depths of their madness and into the void. In total, the Reapers eliminated 3 cruisers, 2 gunboats, and 1 battleship before the way into Omicron Gamma was cleared.

We jumped into the Corsair home-system to meet with no resistance, save for stationary defense platforms positioned close to the jump hole access. As we flew towards Celle Dor, our planned rally point, 'Enojado' attempted our first intervention. Submitted is the transcript log of the Reaper's attempt to save the Corsairs from themselves:

In-between transmissions we received sporadic skirmishes from those Corsairs who could not resist the urge to enter into battle. These incursions threatened the stability of the situation, and were dealt with immediately:

Despite our attempts to reason with the Corsair Nation, this first attempt was ultimately a failure; the Corsairs have been fighting wars for such extended periods of time, it seems as though it has become an integral part of their society. Even when offered the chance to escape from such a life of constant struggle and war, they vehemently stood by their beliefs. Despite this, one Corsair did show a seed of rationality; 'Tempestad' maintained an open mind about what the Reapers had to say. Perhaps this one can spread our word to his hermanos; the seed has been planted and now requires time.

The Reapers may attempt to communicate with the Corsair Nation again; however, we must also plan for the worst if they cannot be saved from themselves.

For the Archon.

For Braillia.

Schiff Toha,

Over and out.
