Message inbound... Space Cruiser Excelsior Destination: Unknown ~~ TELEMETRY SENSORS 2 AND 3 DOWN ~~ Stardate Beta Epsilon 24 Epsilon [SYSTEMS DATA REDACTED] [DRAFT DETECTED, SENDING] [autotranslator on] Corporal Sam Arnold, Systems Administrator --- To Captain Kiu Sercas of the Malkonkordo, Again, you miss our point. We are a fleeing group of Terrans who are intending to find ourselves a new place among the stars. Many planets are already inhabited by other established species. I ask you, what use would 500 random people have against other species? No, while our goal IS to populate a new planet, any 500 people wouldn't do. We have, on board, 400 of the most daring, strong, and well trained soldiers in the Space Corps. The remaining 100? Crew members to oversee the ship's maintenance (myself included). If I tried to abandon our goal, they would slaughter me. No, we aren't simply repopulating. We're making ourselves a home planet. [draft sent] ~~TRANSMISSION END~~
