this is eizen of the ss blameless.

crew of the van elita and friends of the shepherd, if you can read this respond as soon as you are able with status and location. [ Regardless of the fact he knows they can all defend themselves he is still worried. ]

if anyone else has any information about what we're facing that they can share, i would appreciate it.

As the others have said, we're good. Glad you're alright.

We're still gathering intel, but some reports have managed to pass to and from the planet both directly and via the network. I'm hoping we can coordinate something to prevent this from happening again. Those weapons make it trickier than I'd like.

Whoever sent those dreams of the exploding planet sent a dream of this as well- remember the second one that was going around? People being hunted on a planet like this? We should have seen this coming.

[rockily]

then we have to find a way to disable those weapons. if we can't do it from up here maybe those trapped on the planet can.

[ If they can do that then maybe the rest of them can mount a rescue. ]

dreams like that, they don't always play out the way you see them. even if we had paid it attention who can say whether it would stopped so many of us from falling.

[tsunergy]

Prevent, maybe not. But we could have prepared for something.

[There's not much sense in bemoaning it now, but it wouldn't be Mikleo if he didn't have something to complain about.]

Does your ship have someone with a comm augment? I want to look into putting together a cypher that will only decode itself on our machines. We can't plan any kind of ambush if there's a chance the enemy can get to the information.

[rockily]

there is no guarantee even if we manage to encrypt the information but it won't hurt to try. we need to get something down to them.

there is, aye. what are you thinking?

[tsunergy]

I want to coordinate a joint attack between us and those on the surface on the weapons capable of bringing us down, but we can't risk our enemies finding out about it. So either we need an encryption or a safer way to send messages than shuttling down.

[rockily]

an encryption may be our only option then, even if we could launch something down to the surface we have no way in knowing it'd reach one of ours. if i can send our man your way i will.

[tsunergy]

I'd appreciate it. Zaveid's doing what he can, but you know how he is.

[technology and open communication? so not his strengths.]

[rockily]

aye, i do. [ Better than most. ] let me know if there is anything i can do. if it comes down to it i'll even take a shuttle down to the surface to deliver the message.

[ And probably get shot down, but he's fine with that. ]

[tsunergy]

[.......eizen.....]

don't do that. if we end up sending down a shuttle it may as well be unmanned, there's no sense in risking someone's life for a message.

[rockily]

[ what ]

i've sailed waters rougher than these. [ let him live!!! ] besides that message could be key to getting all those trapped off the planet.

[tsunergy]

it's a stupid risk and if you're going to do something like that, then stay out of it. I'm not about to risk Edna's wrath by being the cause of some idiotic death.

[YOU'RE TOO DUMB TO LIVE, EIZEN, NOW STOP THAT]
