The H.E.L.M., The Moon's Orbit
The Guardian listens to a message on the radio in the Wing of the Haunted
Caiatl: Per our arrangement, I am delivering a status report on the Imperial survey of the Leviathan. Our scouts confirm your reports of psychic anomalies emanating from the red phantoms seen throughout the ship. Psion opti theorize that these phantoms are manifestations forged from a psychic "background radiation" permeating the Leviathan. Darkness. Navigational equipment shows that the Leviathan entered a gravitational anomaly and… It was at once within and outside of the known universe for an indeterminate period of time. When it emerged from this state, most of its crew were missing, and an infestation of unknown fungal matter had infiltrated all decks of the ship. Command structure appears to have broken down. Loyalists who emerged from the anomaly disembarked from the Leviathan. We are attempting to determine their location. Those currently aboard are newly grown, combat-ready clones that have no higher brain function. They operate as an extension of my father's will. At Valus Forge's suggestion, I have submitted a recommendation for Crow to participate in a joint investigation to supplement our own. It is my hope that together, we can tear into the beating heart of the Leviathan, and drag my father screaming into the light of your sun. Until such a time, we are Cabal. We eat the mountains; we drink the seas.
