Personal Log: Zrabdek Gunnery Officer 1st Class V.I.S. Vengeance
The Swarms numbers appear to be unlimited. Two systems have been lost in the last month to their attacks. With that many targets though it will provide me with ample opportunity to prove myself to Ozos. She refuses to consider me as a possible mate until I prove my valor and honor in combat. Which I intend to do in the next engagement.

The Swarm overwhelmed the fleet in our last engagement forcing us to retreat into the Drift. However several Swarm ships pursued us. It was decided to make an emergency drop out of the Drift. The V.I.S. Vengeance has crash landed in a swamp on Haspis 3. The bridge was destroyed in the landing resulting in the loss of both Captain Svozne and 1st officer Knubid leaving me in command.

Sprocket informs me the shielding on the ship’s power core is cracked, most likely a result of the crash. We have shut it down and sealed the Power Core’s hatch due to the leaking radiation. Evis suggests that we should rig the power core to detonate remotely in the event the Swarm should locate us. I have taken it under advisement for the moment.

The V.I.S. Vengeance is considered a loss. She won’t fly again. There is still no indication that the Swarm has located us but our position here is unsustainable. The local fauna has begun to move into the area and we have had to fend off several attacks. It has been decided that we shall abandon the Vengeance and head northwest in an attempt to locate and contact the indigenous intelligent population of this planet. We will take the remaining Ripclaws and what equipment we can carry with us. The Armory will be sealed. Sprocket has suggested that we leave the Industrial Welder and batteries in a locked cabinet in case we find the need to return and have to reopen the Armory. I leave this log as a record of the honor and bravery of the survivors of the V.I.S. Vengeance: Ozos, Orond, Zrabdek, Katvosh, Vogoz, Nuveze, Ulash, Evis, Sode, Komagon, Knyvo, and Sprocket.
