Glad to see you got out of that mess alive, Commander. The fleet took some bad hits, but we’re ready for round two.

The Swarm is aware of our presence, Commander. They are forming up and moving towards us. I may be able to disrupt their communications if we were to get a good sample of their newly updated transmitters.

This is the fight I have waited for. We do not need Starfleet, the Klingons or the Romulans and their birds. Independents will drive off the bees ourselves!

When I integrated with the Swarm, I had the distinct sensation of a wound. It was… disorienting.

It is possible that this discomfort caused the Swarm to be disorganized and discombobulated.

In a way, yes. The Swarm is obviously not a biological being, but we have seen evidence in the past to suggest that they share consciousness.

Before, we believed this to be artificial, but given my recent experiences and Zenith’s clear intelligence, it seems as though the Swarm itself is alive.

I have established contact with the remnant of the Independent fleet that survived the assault. They are ready to launch a counter attack on Altamid.
