:: Retreive and Treat :: :: Hyreal to Sorn :: Inside the Hummer the com operative received a distress call. Besides that, he didn’t have contact with Narbilu the last thirty minutes, which concerned him. Three minutes ago he already rallied up a task force to search and extract the Kawashita Group CEO from the last checkpoint. The distress call was only two clicks away from that last checkpoint, so the team was lucky enough to reach the exact location where the fallen leader bathed in a pool of his own blood. The critters who were eating from the lifeless body were easily scared away, one even got killed in the process. The medic fitted landing craft loaded up a barely breathing and heavily bleeding Narbilu. Fortunately, within a minute, they were onboard the Hummer orbiting space, docking the Collision. The onboard medic decided to take their leader to Sorn, where one of the high end hospitals of the Kawashita Group is located. The Collision jumped a few gates and Sorn was in sight. Preparations were already at full blast. They operated on him for days and the next three weeks, Narbilu was in a coma instated rest, before he had the strength to open his own eyes. When he did, the first thing he did, was summon his loyal right hand man Commander Turtle. Commander Turtle hasted to Sorn to speak to Narbilu. Loyal friend, it is still unclear how my body reacts to the poison the creatures injected me with. If I will be able and regain strength to stand before my people to address them, command them or even participate in operations. I grant you the position of acting CEO until my destiny is unfolded. You are the one who is best informed about what Kawashita Group’s goals are. You can encourage people, you have the diplomatic skills and you know how our organization is fitted. Take this responsibility with honor. I will somehow get my strength back, we have excellent doctors, but I don’t know how long it will take. Godspeed, for honor & glory. Narbilu closes his eyes and falls into a deep sleep.

Location: B06 Sorn Tags: Civil, Building, Water Vehicle ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The nice thing about a water world like Sorn is that it has far more usable surface area than a dryer world like Onix. In addition to the planetary surface, many facilities are build submerged in the water or on the seafloor. Many of these are hydroponic farms, but some are research labs. Differences in pressure, buoyancy of materials and staff, and relative safety from espionage satellites and spacecraft are just a few of the reasons for building dry or flooded laboratories in the seas of Sorn. "Is that were you're taking me, then?" "Yes. Spyrius has arranged for you to be delivered here. Once you have completed your work with them, you will be provided compensation, as well as funds sufficient to buy you passage anywhere you want to go." "Spyrius?" "Yes, Spyrius. They're an old company - been around almost as long as Exploriens. They did robotics and stealth technology. They were not, however, a very large business, and a nasty sequence of media disasters more or less finished them. They still have plenty of facilities in the Milky Way, and even a few out here, but they've never really been able to compete. This operation is their bid for a comeback." "How long will this take?" "Not very, I shouldn't think. I'm told that most of what they need is contained in that cargo we took from your courier ship, and the rest shouldn't take long. They don't need to you build anything for them - all they want is your theories." "As if they would tell you," Gregorovich muttered. "I don't take a job until I know all the details," I said. "You will be treated well, and you will be on your way home as soon as possible." "I'll believe that when it happens." I shrugged. "Again, it's your choice. The more you cooperate, the quicker this whole process will be, but I assure you that no one is sending you home until Spyrius has all the information they need from you." "Spyrius?" Silvia asked, after Dr. Gregorovich and his cargo had been left with Spyrius agents. "Yes, didn't I tell you? I was sure I did." "No, sweetheart, you forgot again." "Oh, bother. Sorry. Yes, Spyrius really is a corporation - or was. The Kawashita family bought them up quietly a long time ago - they're a puppet company, but the ownership, I'm told, is buried in seventeen layers of trust funds and holding companies. They still conduct research - things like spaceship design, stealth technologies, alternative propulsion, and the like." "Okay, I get that, but why bother?" "Generally speaking, I would say that it's helpful to have alternate companies to conduct any research you'd rather not be caught doing. In this specific case, the only people Dr. Gregorovich will see, speak to, or hear about will be employees of Spyrius - and ourselves, and he thinks we're mercenaries. Octan doesn't have a file on us and our crew yet, and it could be quite some time before they do. By the time they figure out what was stolen from them and by whom, it'll be to late for reprisals." "Clever." "I know, isn't it? We have no new orders for the time being, and that last mission gave us a splendid little bonus. Set a course, won't you?" "Where to?" "I'm not particular. Somewhere you'd like to go." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Didn't have as much time to work on this as I hoped. The water is not something I'm very proud of. Please note that the Variga is from a previous build and not to be judged.

Location: B06 Sorn Tags: Military vehicle, spaceship, spying MANTIS amplified radar stations on Sorn had detected an unidentified craft in the airspace of MANTIS territory on Sorn. The ship was tracked to a small island. Echo team was dispatched to investigate the landing site. - - Sir it looks like it's a Kawashita ship. Whats it doing here? - Take your team and scout the area, and retrieve the shuttles memory core. It might help us figure out what happened. - Yes sir - - The perimeter is clear captain but something isn't right here captain. All the cargo looks like it has been picked though. Our amplified radar never detected another ship in the area. - We should probably finish this up quick then before Kawashita or whoever did this comes back. Seven do you have the memory core yet? - Yes sir. - - Great. Echo team requesting extraction. More pictures under the spoiler tag.

Location: B06 Sorn Tags: Military Building Note to Judges: Black Ivan is reused from my challenge build and should not be judged. After their mission on Freegate, Echo team has received an top secret order to redeploy to Sorn. -Sir, the team has arrived. -Very good, send them in. - - -I wonder what the mission is this time? It's very odd to be left in the dark like this. -Do you think it has something to do with all the missing branch executives? First Dave Daring goes missing on Gwenavere, then Hawk on Forring, and now there is an imposter Big Sal running around. I would sure like to hunt down the Big Sal. - Whoa, Is that Black Ivan? - It better not be. That bot owes me 1000 credits. That looser obviously threw the fight! - - Welcome Echo team. I have heard a lot about you and am eager to see what you can do. - Thanks, but I haven't heard anything about you. Do you mind telling me whats going on. Why did the suits on Torresta send us here. - Yeah I will fill you in on everything. Please follow me.

:: Arium Major F10 :: We waited for a couple of hours, all scans of the planet were processed and Octan activity is relatively slow. The commander of my escort received message for a secret hideout, where I would get a meeting with some of the hidden species of Andromeda. With haste we passed Traig, Hamilton’s Belt and then in a straight line to Sorn. From recent logs I knew Kawashita is exploring the surfaces, but didn’t encounter any resistance yet, although it borders Mantis territory. We landed near a large rock, with what it seems to have an entrance of some sort. :: Sorn B06 :: The commander guided me to a large conference room where the others already awaited our arrival. He took the open spot in the arena and showed me to my spot. And he began speaking in a fairly understandable language close to what we speak. Zoid (insect) “We represent ALIEN” (I figured that), which stands for Andromeda’s Liberated Interracial and Entrepreneurial Nations. “We have concerns since the three corporations entered Andromeda. Narbilu “I understand” Rothillian (elf-like) Since you arrived business is bad, resources are getting harder and we feel pressed into a corner on most planets. We fear in a few months there is no place to go without interference. Zard (lizard faced) And recent event on Jurin II even show, that Mantis is desecrating our dead. We need to take harsh actions sooner than later. Tron (blacktron) We surveyed you and the Kawashita Group and they seem the most honorable partner. We would like an alliance with you to help us suppress the other corporations and have a peaceful and fair economy. Narbilu looks surprised, but could expect something like this. It only seems there are more species in Andromeda then anticipated. … A large part of the conversation I am not allowed to log (sorry) … Terrestrial What do you say? Narbilu I have to get back to my board for decisions like this, but it sounds reasonable… To be continued…
