Admiral Wiers' private log, SGY 2405.2:

Our first genuine Hoersch-Kessel ion drives rolled off the production lines today. They are cheaper and smaller than the previous atomic drives; in time, we will have Versions that are also more efficient. The Nova colonizer design has already been upgraded to include these new drives. Our research teams are now testing an anti-fighter laser prototype; after that their next priority will be to develop ray and particle shields. There are many who are optimistic with our recent victories over the Yakrin, but the way ahead is still long.

Seeker II entered a new system, which we named New Mantooine; it contains only a small and a tiny partially colonizable worlds, plus an airless moon. She will move through this system to HolLastin, then on to our colony on Klozar VI.

Our metal stockpiles continue to dwindle. I must find new ways to motivate the population of our mining colonies.


Seeker I, Captain's log, SGY 2405.2:

Our carriers have recovered all of their TIE fighters. The rebuilt spaceport down on Aram I has fuelled the Fleet's reactors, and our new laser cannon have been tested. Colonel Haakar and his Assault Regiment are back aboard Fyrine I, minus a token force which will hold Aram I until the Army brings in a proper security battalion from one of the colonies.

Our orders are to leave orbit and make for one of the unexplored wormholes, from which an Alliance destroyer has just emerged. From this distance we can't be too sure, but it looks like it's heavily damaged. Whatever the Yakrin still have out there, it's certainly nasty, and we're headed straight into it.

Fyrine III is on her way to join us, with half a Stormtrooper Brigade aboard. She'll join the Fleet in the unexplored system, if the Fleet is still in one piece by then.
