BEGIN LOG

This is log 5.231.12031 of Post V2. Location of source:

Written by Ir Echerhea, lead campaign scientist.

GN, GV, GS Status:

Success. Having passed all stasis examinations, they are finally ready. Science Team 7-A has verified all stability charts and frequency monitors regarding GN's status. The womb is completely disabled. Destruction of GS and GV's wombs has been issued.

Sensors have picked up no report from the medical frigate "Umbra". Commence investigation on 3.13.1224.

GN, GS, and GV have all been transferred to Frigate "Progneron-7." "Seraph" will remain active despite removal of cargo.

At this stage development has been deemed final. For those uninformed at briefing on 4.1942.23, this means that only authorized personnel may access Clone Storage Alpha. Those in violation of this action will be sentenced to life at the DyceStar Station for an indeterminate period of time. See Kronian Landbase Dept. 407-Stria for more information concerning Clone Storage Alpha and said punishments.

Vessel Analysis:

Seraph, Interlace, Judgment Beta, Progneron-7, and Surgery Stations 66, 31, Umbra, and Alpha are currently all of a level A-84 security level. Only authorized personnel access is permitted. All auxiliary personnel must refer to Command Sector 121 of the Central Landbase for access to said stations.

A flaw, having been found in reworked assault cruiser Spectrumus-59B (said vessel is a rebuilt model of the old Iru-Tera cruiser) is currently being repaired. Anti-gravity had switched online (due to a glitch in Spectrum's secondary mainframe) while militants were onboard. All militants have been confirmed dead. No survivors. It pains us to inform the families of the deceased, but such errors occur, and we must move on.

Auxiliary controls are now active onboard cargo freighter Sanctum 5 after a solar flare from neighboring star Selenea VI disrupted main controls. Repairs should be made as soon as Sanctum 5 returns from delivery mission to Nia.

The research vessel Gunn Two is progressing in construction on Landbase 19432B (the converted vessel development sector of Landbase 19432A). Gunn Two should be ready for virgin launch within five to seven theras.

Supernatural Occurrences:

Frightening occurrences have been reported within research vessel Seraph, notably in Clone Storage Access A and B. Numerous transmissions have reported that scientists felt an ethereal sensation before glimpsing a strange black shadow surrounded by blue flames. The shadow has been described as having a resemblance to a female organism, six and a half feet in height, with blazing sienna eyes. In other parts of Seraph, habitually within Deck Alpha Biohazard Deposit D, scientists have reported to Command Sector 4356 that they had been attacked by a large, serpent-like organism. The beast, having "eyes alight with the fire of hell", quoted by Delta-level scientist Dar Terath, has killed seven scientists and wounded numerous others. Terminal force recommended when encountering said creature.

A brief reminder to all gunship pilots: remember to always check in with the Central Starport Centre of your desired landing area when entering Kronian airspace. Failure to do so will result in termination of your vessel.

Rethra iru evertha. Fear hardens the weak. Remember the law, and remember our purpose.

Electronic Journal Entry #199.24.1

Voice of Dr. Eugene Omar, Titanian researcher

My explorations are in vain. There is nothing here to prove of Aquarians being of Tetran descent, no evidence at all. I leave tomorrow. How I long to see my children again on Titania...

Kronia has done a number on this planet, though. Those sick bastards! Overrunning a once-thriving planet and driving out the ingenious population… It is sickening. They defend their actions in the name of science, but they are truly a corrupt species.

Tetra V is a biological paradise, though it does not house any of its native animals anymore; those were killed off or driven out millennia ago by the Kronians. All of the creatures thriving on Tetra now are of Kronian bioengineering, imported thousands of years ago by said Kronians. I had the opportunity to capture one such creature, a reptilian called a Krakos. It is only a hatchling, and I must say that it is quite adorable for a bloodthirsty carnivore. It has a strange habit of yelping every few minutes; I wonder what this is for. Well, I am no biologist, and my possession of the little fellow must surely be illegal in this strange star system, but I simply just cannot let it free.

Hold up. There is a rustling nearby. Here, I'll take the journal with me. Perhaps it is another strange Kronian creation. Perhaps it is an extinct Tetran.

What the— (transmission lost)

(Transmission regained) –shit! Holy shit! It's huge! Oh, fuck…What did I get myself into? Where… A cave! I gotta—(transmission lost)

(Transmission regained) –huge Krakos. Gigantic Krakos, mutant Krakos! …A mother Krakos. Shit, I took its baby. Damn it! Wha— It's shrieking at me now. Heh, but it can't get in my cave! Stupid fat bitch. It'll make a great story back home. Ha ha ha…ha ha ha— What the hell's that? A torch? Light? Oh, shit. …Eyes. (transmission lost)

(Transmission regained) –get near me! DON'T get near me! Shit, she's got friends. Aaargh! ………KRAAAAAAIIIIIIIIII! Oh, no. That fucking bitch, she's got a mate…! Ah, it's fucking huge. Take this, bastard!

KRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIII! Shit, my gun! Wha—ARRRRGHH…… (transmission lost)

(Transmission regained) KRAAAIIII….KRAAAAAIIII! Mrrrrrrrgh…. squiiiiishhhh…kraiiiiiiiiiiiiirrrraaaah! KRAII KRAIIIIII— (transmission lost)
