[i]Ancients[/i]
One cycle ago, the Vanguard fleet with their attached elements of Narix 5th fleet has entered the system beyond Opportunity. They have immediately found wreckage form a war fought 8000 years ago. The debris is now being analyzed back at Opportunity. After investigating a Mindspace disturbance which turned out to be a collapsed node, the EFG Curious encountered another shipwreck. During investigation, the Marines woke up what must have been hibernating members of a third species.

Soon after, three ships emerged from Subspace and engaged the Curious. While the Frigate won the engagement with no losses on crew, it is estimated that the ship will spend another month in a berth before it is combat ready again. More worryingly, the ships matched electronic signature and design philosophy encountered on the derelict landed on the Homeworld. It is without the doubt that they were Ancient vessels, and they were openly hostile.

[i]Disclosure[/i]
In light of these events, the Admiralty has chosen to fully disclose everything about ourselves to the Narix, even the existence of full specifications on the Ancient superdestroyer we have recorded before the Homeworld's destruction. In light of our knowledge of what power the Ancients can bring to bear and with evidence that some of them still live and are hostile, the Admiralty feels that casting our fate with the Narix is the best course of action.
