RE: Declaring an Emergency at the Rift Forward Operating Base
Agent Jake Carson declaring an emergency at the Rift FOB. Repeat, Emergency at the Rift FOB. A Greystar frigate entered the rift. This was followed by a catastrophic explosion in the direction of Draco’s known position. Agent Sharpshot and I will be scouting after we’ve done what we can for our people here. Attached is the sensor data and external video feeds we have of the ship and the event.
The event’s shockwave has devastated the FOB. Multiple wounded are being triaged. Request immediate medical evacuation and heavy search and rescue support.
He then takes a minute to program the Smart Long Watch Sleeper drone: Fly to a position 95km toward where the explosion happened from the FOB. Ping with any fluctuations or signals in what wavelengths it can detect along with anything bigger than a compad moving directly toward the FOB
“Message to Acastus sent and Sentinel heading out, I’ll loop you in on the ping if it finds anything Obsidia.”
(Program (12) if needed)
(If this is good Neko, I’ll post something for the rescue party)

Well unless this thing eats metal Groshim doesn't have much of interest. Upto Jake again I guess )
(Ooh one thing I would like to do though. Could I use my Ashen one feature to get a small electronic tracker sort of thing and fashion a collar for the pup with it on so if we lose it then we can find it again?) (edited)

Greetings Gentlemen,
I have received your request for use of our facilities. The Superior Overlord of Water Ripples has advised that agents are approved to use Aiya Tech laboratory facilities located in Marmora on the surface of Acastus. Attached are your temporary access codes to the facility. Lab assistants are standing by to assist with your endeavors but our primary researchers are currently busy with other company matters.
Respectfully,
Diedrich Johnston
Executive Assistant to the CEO

Greetings, Greatly appreciate lab usage. Will help greatly refine stealth rock. Lab aids appreciated, shame unable to work along renowned Aiya Tech researchers but self and Agent Carlson likely up to challenge.
Will keep informed of progress.
Great respect
