[Decrypted] Message to Corvo

[Recording begins]Shit, kid, I hope you are out there
[Crackling fades, audio clears]
Corvo, I haven't seen your ship around the wreckage of the Bright Sentinel or FNS Fortitude so I'll have to hope you've made it. The wave shut off most of my systems while frying the others. I've drifted powerless at 400 m/s for an hour while trying to perform some maintenance, and honestly, drifting might be the only reason I'm alive because Thargoids seem more aggressive than ever. I see a new one every couple of kilometers, I've never seen them be able to warp into normal space in this quantity...
Bad news doesn't end there though, because whatever that pulse was, it fried Eighty real good. The CPU is only drawing 0.01MW of power and the only thing that seems mostly intact is the memory core.
I'm going to be checking the distress beacons around the system for a while and leaving this message for you just in case you are doing the same.
And if you do get this message, try to get to our carrier, this system is no longer ours.
