Greetings from Akhaan Station

Ocram II orbital habitat/research and commerce station. Please specify your recipient: Admin, Archives, Security. (OOC: PFP done by @redwingpilot)

Greetings.

This is the official account of Akhaan, the orbital station above Ocram II.

Our nearest blinkgate is approx 2 weeks away, assuming average interstellar craft speed.

Our purpose is primarily that of a research station. However, we take pride in our financial independence from any of the megacorporations and our ability to take contracts from any given party as a result.

Thus, our other services include ship maintenance, temporary and permanent habitation, and the mining of local minerals.

We currently have dire need of an experienced security outfit in order to allow our valued faction neutral status to continue without attracting pirate attention.

As a result: any and all combatants, mercenaries or security forces, regardless of background or history, may find a highly lucrative contract, wether long or short term, aboard the six sectors of the Akhaan.

Please direct all inquiries regarding the job offer to Admin for review. Security will recontact should your inquiry be considered further.

-Administrative Director Iris.

This might be the single most frightening way to start pride month, well, ever.

Never have I been more grateful to be N-threaded than right now, otherwise ther would be nobody with the free attention to make this announcement. -Alexis, Akhaan security

Hey Omninet, lots of fantastic conversation going around lately and it just has me thinking... democracy is a bit like a gacha, and voting is a little like one of the "pulls," or... polls but with a little hard work and coordination, the PEOPLE can decide what they get.

Maybe that's a five star pull, in the form of an honest representative from humble beginnings in a dawnline mining outfit, who's served his people loyally for the past eight years, voting to pass forward looking policies that help us all.

Maybe it's a one star pull, some anthrochauvinistic dirtbag who doesn't do any of that.

Are you informed on where your representative candidates stand, Omninet?

[ocram-station-admin-and-records]

Since we aren't part of union and I myself hold no more political power than the glorified librarian that I am and I neither speak for nor represent Akhaan administration in any way outside my capacity as said glorified librarian, I am wholly able to say this without repercussions

Freeman, I am going to shatter you like glass

>// I am already just a Horus freak, I don’t need to be a paranoid one too

>// But I think something is interfering with my signal and causing things to be ‘out of place’

>// (I’ve never touched Lich tech so I don’t know what the hell could cause such an effect)

>// If anyone else is experiencing such experiences with the Omninet, let me know, I’d like to figure out what is happening

[ocram-station-admin-and-records]

We've got that issue system wide

[ocram-station-admin-and-records]

Did you think I'd let you get away?

[ocram-station-admin-and-records]

But of necessary clarification:

Akhaan is the station and main population centre.

Ocram is the star/star system

have you ever encountered a Wa.zal mech?

Memetic weapons flicker between the two combatants, and the blinkthreads of legionspace quiver with the intensity of Luna_0’s struggle. It inclines a lobe of itself outward, turning one face to hear.

Its fur is slick with its own blood, and shards of broken fang are lodged in its gums. With great effort, it shifts its internal semiotic indexing to produce spoken language, and emanates a voice of terrible power.

< I am a fighter pilot(s)/ship(s)/sibling/pack, > it says. < I don’t really encounter mechs. Not often, anyway. Sorry. Do you know anybody who could send naval support? >

Distress call logged.

Please provide coordinates, and we will determine if assets are available in your area.

[ocram-station-admin-and-records]

I'll spare you the paperwork; they are within our jurisdiction, so thats 2 weeks from the nearest blinkgate at middling to high burn. As it happens we have an apparently hostile capital ship within view of the station via naked eye, and would welcome anything to deal with that.

The charred form of Coelacanth steps forwards from nothing, crutches clicking against the floor as they move towards the Administrative director and take a seat.

<Iris. Charmed. My name is Coelacanth. I am to understand your people are plagued by.liquid time?>

The fish immediately has Iris's laser pistol drawn on them

"You have two minutes. Give me solutions, or get out."

The woman doesn't even look up from her paperwork.

[coelacanth-whispers]

<I offer a solution. My ilk are used to the goings on in this place. We could right it's wrongs. For a price.>

A snap of their fingers, and Rain among Reeds blinks into existence within a few kilometres of Akhaan station.

The urchin-like vessel is damaged. Points missing from one of its larger clusters of spines, coppery hull punctured and the gaps filled with crystalline structures. Burned metal, and ten thousand points of micro-abrasion.

<We understand your system is host to certain resources and phenomena. We request resources necessary to make repairs, and freedom to harvest and study certain phenomenon.>

<Rest assured, we will be non destructive and non obstructive.>

[ocram-station-admin-and-records]

What do you mean by harvest?

And what materials do you require?

[no-future-mudwasps]

Alright it is not forty hours into 5018u.

What in the hell are all you doing?

Hello there. I am ‘Runneth Forwards And Back’. I come with a request for information. The purpose of this request is deterrence, and inoculation.

Some time ago there was an attempted incursion by rogue researchers under your purview to expose multiple NHP to a violent de/con-shackling experiment. This attempt was an aberration, and swiftly corrected. I request information on the mechanisms through which the victim NHPs were stressed and put to dissolution. I am prepared to offer a trade for good-will, and this information. My portion of the trade is an offer for future inoculation against such dangers.

Ah. Some time ago, was it? Apologies, temporal anomalies have made things difficult system wide. For us that was simultaneously months ago and last week.

DOCUMENTS CLASSIFIED

The researchers involved were made up of a combination of actors. The first group was rogue scientists. The organisation they deviated from is Akhaan Research Sector. The second group is independent scientists. These were operating under duress from an external force. This force is a pirate group, and it's name is Helheim's hand.

The mechanisms through which the deimosians were de shackled is through contact with an entity. This entity's name is Fenrir, and it is malicious. Contact between Fenrir and a caskets metafold causes harm. The form of thid harm is to unravel the blinkspace corpus. The mechanism of this harm unknown. Our current theory is thst Fenrir is an entity that exists in multiple mediums at once. These mediums are commonly referred to as "Blinkspace" and "The aunic firmament".

Further alliance would prove mutually rewarding, Runneth. We hope to hear from you again. Should your inoculation prove viable, we will provide you with more information as it becomes available.

THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT POST. REBLOG IT IF YOU CAN.

Do it, no matter your ‘blog type’ because you never know who might need it

[justawasteoftime1122]

Wow. I wonder if there are numbers to call about anxiety and just chit chat.

[ocram-station-admin-and-records]

Attention incoming trade vessels. Be advised that pirate activity has recently spiked to 200% above average near the outer edge of the system.
