Captain's Log SD2761
|
|
|
|
Much has occurred our last status report. During our investigation of Enketu
|
|
Tri we discovered equipment upon the red planet neighboring it that we were
|
|
able to use repair our communication systems. Shortly thereafter, the Captain
|
|
contacted Dekaoso Prime to update them on the status of Malkonkordo, to have
|
|
their engineers power back on their quantum entanglement communicator (QEC) in
|
|
the event another incident like our's occurs, and to utilize their systems to
|
|
query the locations of Starbloom, Lucky Homes, and the Space Cruiser Excelsior.
|
|
He did manage to get coordinates to what we believe was the location of Lucky
|
|
Homes, but it looks like we presently did not have any known location of
|
|
Excelsior. Due to this realization, the Captain decided to handle the Lucky
|
|
Homes issue himself and requested a war vessel be sent out to search for
|
|
Excelsior. After this was done, the Captain commanded we make way towards Lucky
|
|
Homes to "pay them a visit".
|
|
|
|
It was shortly after this took place that the events that unfolded on Dekaoso
|
|
Prime took place and was later reported on all channels (now including QEC) by
|
|
Alportas Majeston about the destruction of Dekaoso Prime by the Pertulit Empire.
|
|
The crew all coped with it in different ways, and one of our researchers aboard
|
|
Malkonkordo did so by trying to deduce how the Pertulits could have possibly
|
|
found the location of Dekaoso Prime. It was only then that they realized it was
|
|
our fault. Malkonkordo broadcasted over the QEC our current location relative to
|
|
a celestial body along with how long our date of departure. The Pertulits must
|
|
have been able to work backwards from that and discover the location of Dekaoso
|
|
Prime.
|
|
|
|
Also during this time, there was a great divide that formed among the crew. On
|
|
one side were the fundamentalists that felt that we should continue on with
|
|
purging all life from the universe, and on the other were the pragmatists who
|
|
felt that the threat of the Pertulits returning was too large to ignore and
|
|
with the loss of Dekaoso Prime we should look to ally with others to have some
|
|
hope of being able to defeat them once and for all. With tensions already high,
|
|
the discovery of the role Malkonkordo played in all of this threw everything
|
|
into chaos. A civil war broke out throughout the ship between the two opposing
|
|
sides, but as the extremists took out one another, those who remained tried to
|
|
work out a way to bring peace as we have already lost enough Dekaosan life as
|
|
it was.
|
|
|
|
Fortunately, as those on the fence were forced to pick a side it was discovered
|
|
that most of us were on the side of the pragmatists, many still able to recall
|
|
the stories of the Neniigo War. The fundamentalists were then given the
|
|
ultimatum to join the pragmatists or be eliminated. It did not take long after
|
|
this for the war to end, but by this point the Captain was nowhere to be seen
|
|
and assumed to be one of the casualties of war. There was a need for someone to
|
|
lead Malkonkordo, not just the next in command but someone who would represent
|
|
the new values of the pragmatists. That was when I, Kondukas Esperon, was chosen
|
|
to become the new captain of the Malkonkordo.
|
|
|
|
During our next meeting to decide how to proceed with eliminating the Pertulits,
|
|
I was the one who proposed we use our new information of the location of Lucky
|
|
Homes try to contact them and work out an alliance and peace agreement. Many of
|
|
the fundamentalists who remained among us were against this idea and stood by
|
|
the sentiments of their previous captain, and so another culling upon the crew
|
|
was performed. In total we lost almost a third of our crew, but those who were
|
|
still here were all for the new cause of allying with Lucky Homes.
|
|
|
|
Using our newly prepared communication equipment we reached out to the cats
|
|
and, after receiving the go-ahead from Quyst Trombone, Susan of Starbloom
|
|
invited the Malkonkordo to Lucky Homes. Upon our arrival we were greated by the
|
|
giantic cats that were about three times the size of the average Dekaosans.
|
|
Shortly after we finished with the docking process of the ship and getting
|
|
through the formalities of introductions, Kiu Serĉas came forth from the vessel
|
|
out of whatever hole he was hiding in and attacked one of the cats. Though only
|
|
shortly introduced, this began the first battle shared between Starbloom and the
|
|
crew of Malkonkordo as we fought Serĉas. While vastly outnumbered, he fought
|
|
like a true Dekaosan that would make Sinjorino proud if she still looked upon
|
|
us. However, he was no match for the foes that stood before him and his death
|
|
brought the Malkonkordo Civil War to its end, and strengthened the new bond
|
|
that has blossomed between Malkonkordo and Lucky Homes.
|
|
|
|
In both honor of our arrival and celebration of our victory against the late
|
|
Captain, myself and the crew were invited to the 14th Pod's upcoming scholastic
|
|
event. Once celebrations have come to an end, we hope this new alliance will
|
|
aid in our ultimate goal of saving the universe from the Pertulit Empire, but
|
|
for now we have some poetry to listen to.
|
|
|
|
Together, we will survive.
|
|
