𝐈𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆… ▓▒░ 𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐌 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄 ░▒▓ █ This is UNIT NI-5928-SC, Nonagn Ioprex, helm of The Dredgeseeker. █ This message has been sent to all known Fleet Channels, the Helm Network, and all Official Sites. █ The majority of these sites and channels have been unable to connect, and as such, this unit is attempting to blanket-post on all known websites mentioned on this unit's last saved version of the Helm Network's chatlog that have posting capabilities. █ This vessel and all within it have been disconnected from our world by the failure of an experimental device during a pirate attack ███████ ago. █ We exist in an incorporeal state. █ We are still living, we just cannot interact with anything outside of the ship except light. █ We have been forced to turn to eating the dead to supplement what we can grow in our growroom. █ Surviving crew count in bio.

𝐋𝐎𝐆𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐆_𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍… █ Oh, no, no. I don't want to use "it". █ On my prior ship, it was the only pronoun I was allowed. █ Even though I've been here for four sweeps now... Sometimes it still slips through the cracks. 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐎𝐍〈PUNISHMENT_ENFORCED_TRAINING〉 █ There's nothing like that here, though. █ The Technical Feargent and General Feargent insisted to the Captain that I be allowed to use what I like. █ While the Captain lived. █ He did eventually permit it. █ I prefer he/she. █ Not in any particular order. 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐑𝐘〈AND_YOURSELF?〉
𝐋𝐎𝐆𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐆_𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍… █ Good. █ This is good to hear. 𝐃𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐓_𝐐𝐔𝐎𝐓𝐄〈HELMTECH〉 "... Why are you telling me? I don't really care. Good for them?"

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆… 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐑𝐘〈RIGHT?〉 █ That wasn't a query it was rhetorical. █ Yes. █ This unit has been granted permission to discuss our situation in full, so that is counted within that order. █ The Dredgeseeker's current General Feargent and current Acting Captain is Ser Droste Abysme.

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆… 𝐋𝐎𝐆𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐆_𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍… █ You recognise the name? █ Makes sense, she's pretty impressive. I heard she worked directly under General Feargent Vespid before being promoted. █ We like that scary𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐎𝐑〈 154 𝐔𝐀 〉 █ I am happy to brag about it, she has been very kind to me.

𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆… █ "Not Unkind" is an accurate assessment. █ Ruthless, though. █ When she's decided the correct path, anyone who gets in her way is █████ Gone. █ I wonder what your experience of her has been.

𝐈𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆… 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆… █ That sounds like our General Feargent. █ Though its my understanding that she doesn't really hold anyone that close to her chest. █ She loves her crew, in... A sense. █ But she would be willing to𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐎𝐑〈 154 𝐔𝐀 〉 █ We would not be spared her ruthlessness if we crossed her.
