Sender: Telemachus Rank: Strategos Callsign: "DPA" Good morning, afternoon, or evening. I am Strategos Telemachus, probably better known by my callsign "DPA", and I have been authorized by Polemarchos Jag Kara aka "Captain" to author our press release in the closing days of this deployment. As with all Code: Infinity operations, the Shattergrounds QAZ Crisis could potentially have had limitless consequences for the Human Sphere. I am proud to report that this is not the case. The internecine bickering over which nations would control which vital locations and subsequent spec ops activity did not result in any catastrophic failures of containment. The Quantum Anomalies are held through a combination of human and alien technologies, and something approaching normal civil operations can begin to start again. Humanitarian efforts will be safe from the predations of extralegal military forces, with flights and launches predicted to reach 50% of pre-crisis capacity by the end of the week. Aleph High Command would like to thank each and every one of its Commander Aspects and Posthumans for their efforts in securing Lorena. We were assigned a task and we did it. There is no purer expression of the relationship between Aleph and humanity than this. Please take your assigned leave, VR or otherwise, to rest and prepare for individual assignments in other theatres of interest for the Special Situations Section. I have a message from Achilles himself for his Commanders. "You fought like demons." Those who know the legendary Recreation know just how rare that sort of praise is. We now must acknowledge two other nations. To the Nomads, we thank you for keeping your activities at Bleriot Airport to an acceptable minimum. Your restraint allowed us to offer landings to the humanitarian branch of the Waqf al-Badawi much sooner than we could have had there been active paramilitary engagements throughout the entire airport. We know there are irreconcilable ideological differences between the S.S.S. and many Nomads, but we hope this detente can continue to be useful in the next crisis. Finally, just as Aleph High Command extended congratulations and thanks to Haqqislam for their repulsion of the illegal Combined Army presence at Bhai, we must recognize and praise the efforts of PanOceania to protect Edda from further overreach by the Ur-Hegemony. The full ramifications of Bureau Aegis' "invitation" to the Combined Army will only be known when the Oberhaus reaches consensus. PanOceania was not willing to stand aside and let subversive forces overstep the signed treaties and establish another beachhead on Concilium. We salute their commitment to the rule of law despite overwhelming odds. Though their efforts did not prevent all excessive landings and extralegal operations, they certainly had a tangible effect and a strong message. The ceasefire must be respected for the Ur Hegemony to exert political soft power. They must pursue their goals with delegates, not Legates. I have a very special message from Maximus for the PanOceanian Commanders. "Though even the mightiest shields may break, do not despair. They have still protected those they were placed in front of." I leave you on those words. Questions and comments are appreciated. Artistic expression is encouraged, however, please restrict memetic social media to the appropriate Arachne channels.

To: careers@LuDuanFranchise.Maya From: sonofodysseus@comms.Toth Subject: Internecine Bickering Publicly, we must subscribe to the will of the Oberhaus. Yu Jing was meant to be responsible for Huaqiao. Privately, I am very impressed with your will to power. We will need men and women willing to perform these kinds of jobs when this ceasefire eventually ends. Find attached payment for double our usual order of Corporate Security and Bounty Hunters. I'm sure you can find enough dangerous sons of bitches in time. Keep your fires burning. As usual, don't try sharing this document. All traces left Maya as soon as you opened it. We expect your discretion, but one can't be too careful with Shasvastii all the way in the Bureaus these days. Maybe invest in some biometric gear: there's a security niche to be filled with thrice damned Spiral Corps gone. Just a thought, Commander. Yours Truly, Son of Odysseus
