My fellow activists,
I am leaving a quick notice about a new activist who has joined our ranks. Miss Lena Atzenbruck, former President of ALG, has decided to continue the struggle against the regime of Rheinland on our side. This is a great honor for us, as Miss Atzenbruck has played a big role in establishing the current relationship with ALG. She is a long-known ally of the movement and I expect everyone to treat her accordingly.

Aktivisten,
I'll make this as short as I can seeing as everyone here is presumably as busy as I am. While my time with you has been short, I've decided that is best for myself to move on and take the fight elsewhere. I'll still do my utmost to ensure that Rheinland will, in due time, become a place that treats its people like people, just not within the Widerstandsbewegung. Everything that I've been informed about and taught will of course be kept a secret. I'd like to thank Aktivist Ohnesorg in particular for guiding me in the time that I've been with the Widerstandsbewegung. I hope to see you strive and prosper.

Greetings,
although I initially wanted to respond to a distress call about Corsairs in Munich, I ended up talking to a representative of the Technocracy of Auxo, namely a ship callsigned "Revenant". They spoke about a new sort of Nomad, a memetic one, highly dangerous and predatory, I assume the logs clear this up better than my words can.
Mission objective: Deployment against Corsairs Leading activist: Activist Benno Ohnesorg - NWB|Euler.B.IV Allies: None Notable Encounters:
A/)-Revenant - Friendly
I encountered this pilot right as I left Bruchsal, they seemed a little confused and forgetful at first. It turned out they too were headed towards Munich, I thus decided to escort them there.

Dear Frau Atzenbruck,
I was unable to find you in Bruchsal yesterday, presumably, you have important things to attend to. I wanted to speak to you regarding a recent incident, during which you apparently opened fire on a Rheinland Military ship. Since I have not seen a report, I was beginning to worry.
I do not presume you did so out of amusement and instead acted out of necessity. If you could quickly summarize the recent events you would alleviate my concern, do so either by meeting me or by replying to this message.
Take care.
Paul Botzler
Leader of the New Resistance Movement
I'm attaching a portion of the logs from the encounter, with some relevant parts highlighted. It was a short affair as the military pilot quickly withdrew to the Soltau's defensive grid, so I didn't consider it necessary to write a formal report.
I'm sure anyone would agree that I was acting in self-defense here, but I wouldn't mind having a chat about the situation or any other topic.
[14.12.2022 12:16:45] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: Now what is going on here?
[14.12.2022 12:16:55] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: Not much, as we have only just met.
[14.12.2022 12:16:59] A/)-Revenant: Nothing much. But as soon as you jumped, Kaufmen did indeed fly by.
[14.12.2022 12:17:05] Ridgenose: Pissed off people with guns, whether to seperate or overthrow, the idealism is the main thing.
[14.12.2022 12:17:20] Ridgenose: Speaking as a former separtist myself.
[14.12.2022 12:17:25] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: Former?
[14.12.2022 12:17:35] Ridgenose: Don't recognize the ship?
[14.12.2022 12:17:46] A/)-Revenant: It is kind of a giveaway.
[14.12.2022 12:18:00] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: Hm. No, I guess I didn't look closely.
[14.12.2022 12:18:04] A/)-Revenant: So, what was Sable blabbering on about?
[14.12.2022 12:18:08] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: Not really familiar with the type.
[14.12.2022 12:18:13] A/)-Revenant: The usual drooling for Morreti?
[14.12.2022 12:18:30] Ridgenose: The opposite.
[14.12.2022 12:18:34] Ridgenose: She wants him dead.
[14.12.2022 12:18:34] A/)-Revenant: ...really?
[14.12.2022 12:18:41] A/)-Revenant: I thought they were partners...?
[14.12.2022 12:18:48] Ridgenose: Oh my-
[14.12.2022 12:18:54] Ridgenose: That was just a joke. [14.12.2022 12:19:06] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: I hate to interrupt this Gathering, but the Bundschuh vessel must come with me for interrogation
[14.12.2022 12:19:09] Ridgenose: They never were, far as I know.
[14.12.2022 12:19:09] A/)-Revenant: Even if you are joking - they did spend a lot of personal time with each other...
[14.12.2022 12:19:13] Ridgenose: Fuck off soldier boy.
[14.12.2022 12:19:19] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: What is your business here freelancer?
[14.12.2022 12:19:27] Death: Sijukie was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[14.12.2022 12:19:29] Ridgenose: Anyway, ever heard of the LFR, Atzenbruck?
[14.12.2022 12:19:36] Ridgenose: Having a conversation, so be quiet.
[14.12.2022 12:19:53] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: Yes, although I don't know much besides quick summary articles.
[14.12.2022 12:20:11] Ridgenose: Well, this ship is one of the main workhorses of the LFR.
[14.12.2022 12:20:44] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: Nice design. Very straightforward.
[14.12.2022 12:21:11] Ridgenose: Can't quite take credit for it, but it is a reliable old friend.
[14.12.2022 12:21:17] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: Bundschuh vessel, this is your final warning
[14.12.2022 12:21:23] Ridgenose: I swear to...
[14.12.2022 12:21:31] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: My final warning for what?
[14.12.2022 12:21:32] A/)-Revenant: I'm sure it won't take long... I hope.
[14.12.2022 12:21:34] Ridgenose: If the Bundie doesn't murder you, I will.
[14.12.2022 12:21:37] A/)-Revenant: They wanted you to go with them. [14.12.2022 12:21:42] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: Come with me to an interrogation chamber upon Soltau, or I will be forced to tractor in your Escape pod
[14.12.2022 12:21:55] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: These people are professionals, you will not be harmed
[14.12.2022 12:22:07] Ridgenose: Really.
[14.12.2022 12:22:09] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: You may even be released to continue flying if what you say it will prove useful
[14.12.2022 12:22:13] Ridgenose: That's your sales pitch?
[14.12.2022 12:22:18] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: Do you have a price to back me up if I need it, freelancer?
[14.12.2022 12:22:22] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: We did not like to discourage people from turning themselves in
[14.12.2022 12:22:22] Ridgenose: Our torturers are professionals?
[14.12.2022 12:22:37] Ridgenose: I'd do it for free with the way this idiot is going on.
[14.12.2022 12:22:38] [RM]Bmn-Elias.Beist: Torture is outdated
[14.12.2022 12:22:43] NWB|Lena.Atzenbruck: Works for me.
[14.12.2022 12:22:57] Ridgenose: Let's do this then.

Dear Frau Atzenbruck,
thank you for the clarification. This clears up the issue. I have made a similar acquaintance with the soldier in question. While I was able to avoid an armed conflict, I can not put you to blame for defending yourself. I am out today, probably near or within New Berlin, it would be a pleasure to see you around.
Take care.

as all of you are going to notice very soon, we have undergone some massive infrastructural upgrades. The Order was so nice to send a freighter packed with equipment our way to install our new neural-net-interface. From what I've been told, this one is faster, more stable (no more sudden shutdowns!), and much, much more secure. We're using something akin to a clone of what the Order uses to encrypt its neural-net-activity so we should be decked out for some time.
Unfortunately, I didn't understand most of the technical mumbo-jumbo our friends from far out told me, he told most of the things to Felix who was so nice to escort their ship to Bruchsal and is too preoccupied giving you all the heads up so I volunteered to do it. Anway. The work is done and we're good to go. The only thing I was also supposed to tell you is that some minor changes might occur now or later but the base infrastructure stands, enjoy the rest of your evening everyone!
I am sending this message with a strong sense of urgency.
Activists from Tennstedt have contacted me regarding a peculiar phenomenon that has appeared within the remains of Planet Gotha. This anomaly bears a striking resemblance to a jump hole, but its size and impact on our scanners are unprecedented. It is, by any measure, enormous compared to a typical jump hole. We have been unable to determine its nature or purpose, but it seems to lead somewhere unknown.
I am unwilling to risk lives in the name of exploration, yet we must learn more about this anomaly. Its proximity to Tennstedt poses a potential threat, and we cannot afford to be taken by surprise by whatever lies beyond.
Given the significant risks involved, I propose that we seek assistance from someone with extensive knowledge of the galaxy and expertise in such matters. We need guidance on how to proceed and uncover what lies beyond this anomaly.
I urge any fellow activist who receives this message to offer suggestions on whom we might call upon for help.
You can find an attached file of the anomaly down below.
if you search for an organisation that can help us with that anomaly, the Order might be able to help us, but it seems that there are quite occupied in the Omicrons, as all hell seemed to break loose there. When I got a glimpse into Omicron Theta, the local Freeport was flashing a corsair IFF and the Order agent I was escorting advised caution while flying there.
But I digress, we could also try and contact a smaller Zoner group, calling themselves The Starfliers. I did not have the pleasure of meeting one of them myself yet, but their reputation as competent and helpful explorers and scientists is fairly known.
thank you for the swift response. I'm not sure if I have heard of this group before, but you are right. We are demanding a lot from the Order. If these "Starfliers" are indeed as adept at navigating the unknown and hostile regions of Sirius, there should be no harm in trying to contact them.
I will personally see to this matter in an effort to gather new potential allies for our cause. Having a group of scouting experts at our disposal can only be beneficial.
