> [!tldr] A Transmission From [[Felicity Randall]] > On February 18th, 603 as the crew was defending the town of [[Anderson Northwinds]], they were aided by a stolen destroyer commanded by [[Felicity Randall]] - [[Cara Burton|Cara]]'s former partner. She relayed that the [[Sons of The Reach]] had discovered a device in the captain's quarters of [[WDF Endeavor]]. While the device had self-destructed, it contained an extensive log of very short communiques. She offered up the following selection. > >[!quote] [[Felicity Randall|Felicity]]'s Message > Hi Pookie. > > Now that the cat's out of the bag, I need you to know something - I'm taking a big risk here, please don't think this is easy. > > Endeavor's skipper had a sort of communication device in his office. The thing was scuttled long before we got to it, but our Captain Merriweather wasn't so great at this OpSec stuff and had the thing hooked up to a slate that was archiving the messages. They're all tiny, text-only, but they've been a treasure trove. I'm sending you some choice excerpts. > > Maybe. I hope. Maybe this will open your eyes a bit. I know you've heard this from me for decades, but there's some serious evil empire shit brewing on [[Whistler]]. And lady, they're really not your friends, not anymore. > > I love you, still and always. - **T7 602-02-08**: ALERT - ARTIFACT SIGMA/NOVEMBER STOLEN FROM VAULT G7 - [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|INDOMITABLE BASTARDS]] INC [[AIDEN HARLAN]] SUSPECTED - [[IBI YOUR MOTHER WAS A HAMSTER]] DIVE RTE 8973649.23-796256711.4556-7238544294.987 - [[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] AUTHORIZED GRAVITIC INTERCEPT [[ROBERTS]] AT DISCRETION - CODE BLACK --- - **[[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] 602-02-15**: ENGAGING [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|IBI]] YOUR MOTHER WAS A [[IBI Your Mother Was A Hamster|HAMSTER]] - CODE BLACK - **[[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] 602-02-15**: [[IBI Your Mother Was A Hamster|HAMSTER]] DESTROYED CREW SURVIVED - DEPLOYING MARINES - [[Whistler Defense Force|GUARDIAN]] ORDERED TO STAND DOWN - **[[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] 602-02-15**: [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|IBI]] BROADCASTING PUBLIC - ADVISE - **T7 602-02-15**: [[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] CODE BLACK - **[[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] 602-02-16**: ROGUE [[Whistler Defense Force|GUARDIAN]] EFFECTED RESCUE - [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|IBI]] SURVIVORS AT GAF [[Roberts|MYRR]] - **T7 602-02-16**: [[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] DISENGAGE CODE WHITE - REPORT IMMEDIATELY TO DS2 FOR DEBRIEF --- - **T7 602-02-24**: ENDEAVOR DISPATCH TO [[Roberts|MYRR]] - RETRIEVE [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|IBI]] PERSONNEL FROM GAF [[Roberts|MYRR]] - CO [[Daniel Feldman|FELDMAN]] ORDERED TO HOLD [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|IBI]] AND RELEASE TO YOU - [[Komiko Halsey|HALSEY]] REQUESTS PERSONAL DEBRIEF - TERMINATE IN TRANSIT - **ENDEAVOR 602-03-02**: [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|IBI]] ESCAPED GAF [[Roberts|MYRR]] - CO [[Daniel Feldman|FELDMAN]] IMPLICATED - OPERATIVE DEPLOYED TO JARILLO --- - **W33 602-03-03**: OPERATIVE EYES ON [[JACK CARTWRIGHT]] - ACTIVITIES INDICATE ILICIT REPAIR/REARM NAVAL VESSEL - **T7 602-03-03**: W33 CODE GRAY --- - **T7 602-04-15**: ALERT - G7 THEFT ATTRIBUTED TO [[Republic of Jericho|JERICHO]] SPECOPS - RESCIND [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|IBI]] KILL ORDER - CONFIRM - **[[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] 602-04-15**: THIS CANT BE A COINCIDENCE - YOU'RE MISSING SOMETHING - **T7 602-04-15**: STOP WASTING QUANT --- - **T7 602-06-22**: ALERT - ROJ SPECOPS TRANSPORTING ARTIFACTS SIGMA/NOVEMBER SIGMA/GOLF VIA GROUND CONVOY [[Whistler|DEMETER]] 32N-15.2W TO SECURE FACILITY - [[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] INTERCEPT AND RETRIEVE IN TRANSIT AT ALL COSTS - CODE BLACK - BURN APPROVED - **[[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] 602-06-23**: BOTH ARTIFACTS RETRIEVED - BURN BURN BURN - TRANSPORTING TO VAULT S1 - INTEL [[Indomitable Bastards Inc.|IBI]] CREW MEETING WITH GATSBY - ORDERED ASSET CODE BLACK [[ITC A SERIES OF UNLIKELY EXPLANATIONS]] - **T7 602-06-23**: RESCIND THAT AND DIVE BEFORE YOU START A SHOOTING WAR --- - **[[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] 602-07-05**: AND NOW HE HAS A DESTROYER --- - **T7 602-09-23**: ALERT ALERT [[Whistler Defense Force|WDF]] OS SIERRA COMPROMISED - DISABLE CORES AND RESTORE EARLIER BACKUP - EXPEDITE EXPEDITE - **[[WDF Dauntless|DAUNTLESS]] 602-09-23**: RESTORED - VIRUS IMPACTING HARBORMASTER LOCKOUTS - PHYSICALLY SECURE DOCKING CONTROLS - **SABER 602-09-23**: RESTORED - **HORNET 602-09-23**: RESTORED - SABOTEUR APPREHENDED - **T7 602-09-23**: ENDEAVOR CODE OMEGA DESTRUCT DESTRUCT
