Lord Commander,

Our Augurs show anomalous power readings from Hortensius Prime. Multiple power spikes have been detected in the previous 24 hours. No previous readings of such magnitude can be found in the station databanks. Our Adept Exquiro insists these readings are only comparable with starship engines. He has been given three days penitential servitude in the sewage ducts for his foolishness. No ships have visited this system since 942M40. It could not possibly be a locally produced vessel as Hortensius prime is a dead world and no life forms have ever been found in this system.

Your faithful servant,

Torben Bax
2nd Lt of his imperial majesty’s navy, commanding
