This is the twenty-third report on the activities of Subjects 4777, 4778, 4779, 4780, 4781, and 4782, along with their relationship to, and interactions with Subject 1. Data for this and all other reports on these subjects have been gathered through mostly secondary and tertiary sources, with only occasional data from the primary sources themselves. As such, these data may be subject to the degradation effects of copying from one source to the next. For full reliability percentages, see the attached charts.

Day 172 of 4,543,626,881 (21 Jun of 98 AF in Local Notation)

Subject 4781 (designated "R.A.N.C.H.E.R." and referred to as such henceforth in this report), the only subject still remaining in Rabbit (see the previous report, left the city in the morning, heading west. However, he does not appear to have continued west for long, and the direction was probably just to confuse anyone monitoring him. He once again jammed radio communications. Although there are no direct witnesses to this, he likely circled around the city and found a way across the White River (it is unlikely he managed to use the bridge out of Rabbit without being seen, although this possibility cannot be discounted entirely) to rejoin the other subjects to the southeast. Alternatively, he met up with the other subjects at some other location. Whatever the case, we can confirm that he did reunite with the other subjects sometime between this day and reaching Kwala on day 173.

Day 173 of 4,543,626,881 (22 Jun of 98 AF in Local Notation)

The subjects, including R.A.N.C.H.E.R. arrived in Kwala in the afternoon. They purchased supplies (including yet more materials to upgrade R.A.N.C.H.E.R. and Subject 4780 (designated "Ackers" and referred to as such henceforth in this report)) before continuing on to Ado, where they spent the night.

Day 174 of 4,543,626,881 (23 Jun of 98 AF in Local Notation)

The subjects left Ado early in the day, heading northwest. They reached Qaa in the afternoon, though did not enter the settlement. They continued past Qaa and encountered the Coop, which was camped to the southwest. The Coop's Executive Council was in negotiations with Qaa to purchase fuel. The subjects spent the remainder of the day reuniting with friends and associates there (and it would appear R.A.N.C.H.E.R. received a minor upgrade from Subject 4782 (designated "Dwin")). In the evening, some of the subjects spent time listening to music with the youth of the Coop, as well as Cré Ahmun, the young son of the administrator of Qaa.

Day 175 of 4,543,626,881 (24 Jun of 98 AF in Local Notation)

In the morning, shortly after the Coop's executive council resumed negotiations with Qaa, the boy Cré returned to the Coop with knowledge that a pair of Khurvan had approached Qaa's gate, requesting entrance. They were turned away. This interested the subjects, perhaps because Khurvan are rare so far south and perhaps because one of the Coop's members, Ritar Ayim, is a Khurvan who was found as a toddler and raised by the Coop. Subject 4778 (designated "James") appears to have used nanotechnology to track the Khurvan's location.
