Holy. Fucking. Shit.
I go on a brief station-side sabbatical for a family emergency, and look what happens.
I knew Azimuth's little project was gonna flip sideways, I could feel it. We're playing Ender's Game now - that's a reference for all my old Earth literature buffs out there - except we're out a super weapon and the aliens aren't content to sit back and let us use it. Not only that, but now the Alliance is rushing to jump into bed with those Sirius nutjobs, and the even nuttier Thargoid cult is having a major growth spurt. It's getting real out there, and I have a bad feeling it's only going to get realer.
I haven't heard anything from my squad about how we're going to deal with this, but you can bet I'm pitching we start packing it up for Colonia, case the Thargoids rightfully decide to adopt a scorched-earth policy on the apparently genocidal species called humanity.
Go boldly, Commanders... And good luck, to all of us.
Zalun, signing off.
