Constables Log 2

by K'Grall'Narash

This entry is long overdue. After a brief report back to the Speedwell we resumed our scouting mission.
 
We have scouted several systems but so far have only found suitable sites for mining operations. The D'Kot sector is rich in resources but so far lacking in a planet to settle.
 
Unfortunately one system contained communication signals and we investigated. Dangerous satellites were in orbit of the source planet. After Erica and the Felix robot were transported to the surface I was forced to descend planet side to recover them. After multiple encounters with drones that did not prove a challenge we discovered people hiding from the 'AI' seemingly in control of the planet.
 
After much running around and eventual communication our team managed to host a summit and establish some form of council for the AI and people to try and not kill each other. Perhaps a noble act but it has delayed our mission by some time.
 
Subsequent systems have continued to fail to give us a colony planet, but we have managed to retrieve an interesting buggy style vehicle from a crashed spaceship of unknown origin. Apparently it is from or was involved with 'Quantum alternative universes'' or some such. I was able to guide team members in working the power systems and computers. Thankfully the team was not distracted by the ship for as long as I expected.
 
As a bonus Dojin has shown great interest in adapting the buggy to increase it's capabilities. This is most pleasing, it will be a most useful asset. This makes up for any comments on my obviously skilful flight capabilities.
 
Finally we have encountered some form of dubious information trader. They do not appear to be much of a threat but I am watching them. With no knowledge of them I will remain suspicious until they have managed to earn our trust or show us their true colours.
 
The replicated meat on the ship is passable. I may need to ask the team for assistance in improving the quality.
