Thanks you very much, Mistig Ri.

Okay, what do we have here.

Audio Log Backup - 117/07/01 G-6640

The date appears to be YC117 1st of July.
This data snippet appears to be a recording of a conversation between two individuals ("K" and "L"), similar to what we have in Audio Log Backup - 115/11/11 A-0477.
I don't see any information about where it was recorded.

Several things stand out in this one.

  • Subject "K" speaks of "Number 654" and relates to this number as "her".
  • This conversation seems to be related to Convoy Hawk 6 Escort Roster. Two dates are close - 117.07.01 for the recorded conversation and 117.07.03 for the Gallente convoy mission.
  • Further examination shows that Subject "K" is speaking about Wing Commander Kavik, R. as, presumably, her ID is 9968543654. Since this is a recording of a spoken speech, I figured it will be rather common for a speaker to drop the big number for a short one when speaking out loud.

Since we have established a relation between these two fragments, I can assume that on YC117 1st of July Wing Commander Kavik, R. was preparing for a an escort mission that presumably started from a Vitrauze system. Public records show that there is a Federal Navy Academy station close to the moon 2 of the planet XI. One can assume that this mission started there since individual "K" reports that Kavik, R. is preparing fot a deployment with rookies.

An approximate route this convoy could take would be: Vitrauze > Palmon > Lermireve > Raeghoscon > Goinard > Allipes > Aetree > Esmes. All of these systems are low security systems.

Later during the conversation subject "L" gives out an order to "prepare the taskforce". From what publicly available information we can gather, we are dealing with Guristas presumably attacking/kidnapping fighter pilots and these data snippets can potentially build a solid proof base.

Wing Commander Kavik, R. is presumably a fighter pilot. She could be a target of one of these raids. Since we know for sure that "Valkyrie" group consists mainly of fighter pilots, we can assume that she may be related to that group.

This concludes the analysis of this data snippet.

I went ahead and analysed Audio Log Backup - 115/11/11 A-0477 and Audio Log Backup - 117/07/01 G-6640 together.

These two appear to be captured in a similar fasion. We have 2 individuals talking, names concealed in both cases.

However, in both cases the subjects on the recording have similarly structured IDs. I am going to go ahead and say that their system has their nom de guerre, a callsign.

This gives us 3 suspects:

  • L/001/01
  • K/001/44
  • T/007/44

I assume that subject "K/001/44" is present on both recordings. Of course, the sample is too small, but from what I can gather the verbal analysis shows that this is the same individual talking. He appears to be a scout or an intelligence agent of some sort.
Subject "L/001/01" gives out orders of major magnitude supposedly launching an operation - "Prepare the taskforce". We are going to place this individual in the head of the whole operation for now since his callsign is "001/01".

That concludes this analysis.

Meanwhile I urge capsuleers to keep an eye out for more information on the matter.

I would like to remind readers that Makoto Priano is a well known honorless liar.

Engaging in business relations with this woman is ill-advised. There are no guarantees she will honor her words, it is the same as dealing with known Jita scammers.

Pilots, please maintain discretion and vigilance.

Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

Gee, its almost like you aren't entirely appreciative of someone dragging up the same tired personal vendetta in every topic you post!

In all seriousness, I do actually think your research is worthwhile. If not your badposting on the rare occasions [GMVA] posts anything on the IGS.

You and I will have to disagree on the badposting. That said, I will freely admit that I did let my disdain get away from me in a bit more of a flowerful way than normal in that latest instance.

That said, as I said to Skyweir Kinnison in that thread:

Quote:
In brief, the list of pilots I take a dislike to is a very short one. It is, at present, composed of only those few whose nationalistic bend renders them seemingly unaware of the greater world, or those few whose willful cruelty marks them as a danger to those who would do well by others.


I suspect we disagree on Soter, and that's a matter we'll let lay; but I'm sure we can agree that certain pilots, despite their combat capability, do demonstrate a notorious lack of self-awareness or even awareness. Kim and Horn, well...

Back to the matter at hand. Pilot Zirio is in the process of relaying to me a fifth intercept.

Currently awaiting approval from 6NJ for phase three testing. Kosakami and Laitanen seem preoccupied, may have to consult General Abraxas.

Wait. Laitanen? Certainly not Jirai Laitanen. Fatal's been incapacitated for well over a decade.

Quite possibly. I mean, I suppose the fact that Fatal was able to go into hiding would indicate that he was at least in some control of himself. Still, that advance in injection technology is very, very recent indeed, while this report dates from early YC117. Could it merely have been rehabilitation?

Still, I can't imagine another Laitanen rising through the ranks, or being mentioned in the same breath as Kosakami.

But-- why only now? How could this have remained concealed for years?

Still, if Laitanen it is that Laitanen, and he is working with Kosakami, this would presumably indicate the Schism isn't a falling-out between those two, given that the situation we see from Crielere would presumably have been resolved...?

We need more intercepts. A single mention of Laitanen isn't enough to go off of.

Also, pilots, it's come to my attention that pilot Funk has been soliciting the public for subcompact TEBS interfaces, attempting to associate herself with me in public groups, and then advocating for pilots to provide her the TEBS that will then be forwarded to me.

Naturally, you should know that Funk is a known corp thief and petty criminal, has no association with the Arataka Research Consortium, and has made no effort toward rehabilitation by making restitution to Alexylva Paradox or ARC affiliate Signal Cartel.

Needless to say, any pilot wishing to contribute to ARC operations should do so to a known ARC coordinator, such as myself, Morwen Lagann, Naava Edios, or Sara Valkyier.

An excellent contribution, thank you, Zirio. What a fast development.

This Medical Report 0401A - 117/01/19 comes from early YC117, 19th of January, which places it before that Gallente convoy mission. Still, no data on the location this piece of data came from. We will need some proper medical specialist to look into this to establish a good connection between the acquired Subcompact TEBS units and this medical report.

At the same time there is extremely valuable information that came out to light with this report - there are three names in it: Kosakami, Laitanen and Abraxas. As Ms. Priano had already mentioned, if there is a Laitanen, it can only be the Laitanen. Furthermore, it perfectly fits the callsign from the Audio logs. Only Fatal could posess such a high callsign - 001/01.

While I do hope that this is some other Laitanen, perhaps his long lost good twin brother, I think it is safe to say that we can Identify subject "L/001/01" as Jirai Laitanen, also known as Fatal, one of the leaders of Guristas.

The second individual mentioned is Korako Kosakami, also known as Rabbit. He's been alive and well, I presume. At first I thought that he could similarly fit the callsign we have, "K/001/44 ", but somehow I doubt that Kosakami would report something to Fatal. His callsign would probably be 001/02 or some other. The identity of "K/001/44" remains unknown for now.

The third person is someone known as "General Abraxas". I've looked through our archives, but it apears that we have nothing on him. He is probably a higher ranking Gurista officer. The name seems familiar, I can swear I've heard it somewhere.

What we have here might be the biggest OpSec breach for Guristas in a decade. News agencies are going to have a field day with this. Still, I think that's no news to Empire Navies.

Hypocrisy overload.

Maybe Funk isn't ideal, but hearing all this from such honorless liar and coward like you is comical.

Without courage to stand for your words, Makoto, your insults are nothing but barking of a petty incapable lapdog.

Ms. Funk deserves way greater respect than a low-life scum like you, Makoto. I wish they would knew this about you before they allowed you to use capsules.

If the Blood Petal Scorpion was soliciting transcranium Gurista whatsits, said efforts proved futile. She has instead turned to massive market purchases. I am at a loss to explain it. I mean, what is going on?

When Nation invaded, my goodness! Even I knew what was going on.

Millions of people were abducted. "Kidnapped," even. Entire constellations were put under siege. Sure it got a little same old same old, but it was Spectacular.

Then Nation invaded again... I mean, the Drifters invaded for the first time, and that (too) was Spectacular. So I'm told. I missed most, or pretty much all of it. But anything labeled "incursion" must necessarily have been Spectacular. Certainly, the instant death aspects of Incursion 2.0 would make me think twice about arguing.

Now we have the Guristas with their magic head cookies and mysterious notes.

"Do you copy Om...#$!@#$ ... give this note to ... itsuu *&@! I think ... is cu...! Let's hope Ko@!$#$i doesn't find out. S.Fo - giggle!"

...where was I?

Head cookies!

The Blood Petal Scorpion is committed to donating 1,000 subTEBS. An initiative to trade them for a dream failed. But there remains a List of Wrongs That Must be Righted.

I missed all of that, too. Fall down an open access vent and live in a ventilation nexus for two years and you miss a lot. The fable of the scorpion and the frog springs to mind. But that is neither here nor there.

It is stipulated that wrongs exist.

An objective third party with a list of wrongs could apportion 1,000 pirate chips (of substantial market and intangible value) in such a way as to both further research and ameliorate some harm inflicted. The Blood Petal Scorpion's chips come from her market purchases and the voluntary contributions from members of the Hematology Advancement Program. They are not the products of theft or fraud.

Given that the donation of TEBS is capable of addressing the very injuries which are listed as reason for not accepting them, what is the difficulty in accepting them?

For actions, there must be consequences. If Funk is indeed seeking to do right in the world, to be accepted by others, she must first correct those mistakes she has done in the past. I don't honestly care how she goes about this, but it must be to the organizations she has wronged.. If I receive an evemail from Johnny Splunk or Mynxee saying that Anyanka Funk has made up for her corp theft from Signal Cartel, or from Saede Riordan for her actions against Alexylva Paradox, then I'll accept their word and we can go from there.

As it stands, I've seen no effort whatsoever to even address Funk's prior actions.

If as Foley says, Funk is reformed and seeing to do right in the world, then ideally she would be seeking to correct past wrongs.

If this is merely some asinine attempt to garner attention, well, she's got some of it for now, but it's as a footnote on ARC's next operation.

No i dont think were going be doing that Priano, to give these TEBS to Priano and the ARC is a crime. To let this organisation to get a monopoly , and be able to extort proper authorities who may need these TEBS is shameful.

FLMPP and Stoic Assembly lines have been carrying out attacks on these Gurista sites , all TEBS will be handed over to the proper authorities.

No data on location, at least I don't see it. Though Trii Seo confirmed Vellaine.

This appears to be a log of a ground mission. The data is pretty much explicit, nothing to decrypt... CRUs are mentioned, that'd be Clone Reanimation Units, must be clone soldiers.
The transmission states that something is returning to N5Y-4N. N5Y-4N is a Guristas system located in 48R-PS constellation of Venal Region. Records indicate that there is one station - and it belongs to Guristas. Located close to planet VII moon 20.

This must've been some Guristas op.


Fellow Pilots,

I would like to point out that the third intercept seems to reveal the identity of the reporting authority: 'Dread Pith Conquestador' Ohminen Sin. She was also mentioned as the commanding officer for the Guristas assault on Vellaine III. Another clue for the reference and context of the third intercept.
