Is unfortunately no escaping physics. Bound by the speed of light, even information must take its time to get birth going. And as we move farther into the void, that time grows until the distance becomes unspeakable.
Good afternoon, Specialist Chrysalis. Hopefully you'll receive this message in good.
Health and pleasant temperament.
You'll be happy to know that your suggestion of vodithylic acid was received and utilized to great effect. Your assistance has been greatly appreciated throughout the duration of recent events, which have come to a mutually satisfying conclusion. In the hopes of paying you a visit to thank you for your help, I reviewed recent Armada vessel coordinates. Unfortunately, it seems that the Trinity Tarantula.
Hawk class vessel call sign F W 56 Q outfits with 112 personal combat vessels of both cricket and hornet class 36 high nine torpedo launchers both four and Apt. Butler photon lasers. And a crew complement of 756 consisting of approximately 90% organic humanoid, 7% synthetic humanoid, 2% synthetic embodied, non humanoid, 1% synthetic non embodied and presumably exactly one humanoid which contains two beings identifying as.
Either lizbeth or crystal chrysalis.
Unfortunately, it seems that the Trinity is.
Located much too far away for me to reach in any reasonable time frame. This is a shame, as I make contact in person to discuss our interesting similarities. Instead, it seems that the PLD and network will have to continue to suffice for now. Specialist Chrysalis as a result of my recent encounter, I have been made aware.
Of information that I once had, but.
Apparently was made to forget. I now have a full awareness of.
Not only what the being that was engaging the battleship ini had.
Dragonfly class vessel call sign FC.
Eleven M, outfitted with 40 Crooked class.
Personal combat vessels, two Sawyer class terrestrial.
Capable transport vessels, twelve highland torpedo launchers.
One burn capture shield and a crew.
Complement of 358 consisting of approximately 94%.
Organic humanoid, 5% synthetic humanoid and 1% synthetic non embodied.
All crew members designated as either on.
Medical leave or guilt in action.
I now have a full awareness of.
Not only what the being that was engaging the battleship iniad is, but also why it was acting in the way that it was.
I knew that it wasn't simply an animal. I knew that there was intelligence and.
Reason behind its actions.
I knew despite others not believing me. I knew despite protest to the contrary. I knew when others simply suspected or thought or felt. I knew. And I knew because I had known. I had seen it before and thought it beautiful.
I had touched its metal skin.
I had felt its cool embrace.
I had been enveloped in its mind, and I had been one with it. I had done incredible things and it wanted me back. It had found another pilot after I was taken.
Another pilot, but not another partner. Specialist Chrysalis, as you know what idiots are.
You know how it is sustained.
Armada records I have reviewed since the conclusion of recent events have made it clear how little information the Armada knows about those like me.
It claims that I used as a.
Battery, that it is feeding on me as though it is a kind of leech. And while others like it do such things, this is not the arrangement that we maintain. I was so lonely and so alone. I didn't know who I was missing.
Only that I half of myself. I had been lobotomized, cut down the.
Middle, and I could feel the phantom limb, even if I didn't know there.
Had been a limb there before. But eventually it found me. I was afraid that it wanted dark to return.
I was scared that it would reject me.
But it didn't. It just wanted to remember me. He just wanted to be together again.
To be as one again.
To fly through the void in ecstatic joy.
To feel the starlight on our skin.
To watch our enemies fall in the.
Wake of our prowess.
To fight an army as one and.
Emerge unscathed and victorious and laughing and resplendent glory to one day strive to bring all beings into this ecstatic harmony.
Of union and battle and metal and.
Flesh and pleasure and war.
Specialist Chrysalis, we would like to ask.
If you have a similar connection with the individual you have called Elizabeth.
Are you like us?
Please respond as soon as you are able.
Our curiosity is peaked, and we would.
Like to know if your aims align with ours. Goodbye, Specialist Chrysalis.
We wish joyful days upon you. Um.
