	Eventually, we gain the bridge. We sweep the room and look under the drive couches and operator stations. A single shoe draws ~~out~~ attention. Having assued ourselves of the absence of immediate danger, we lock the counterspinward door behind us and face the two doors in front. One leads further spinward into the last unexplored quarter of the ship. The other, as per Jan's comment, leads to one of the ship's hardpoints. This door has traces of blood and hand prints.

Decryption Log: ... processing...

Personal Log of [[Persy]]:

We gain ship center - the reception area and the corridor up to the pinnace. After Heloise works her magic on the desk terminal and we discover the incriminating footage and the arrival of six additional people (presumably), we move spinward in search of the bridge.

Soon, we find ourselves back in crew quarters. The first cabins seemed unremarkable, but eventually we receive a response to our hails, albeit not a friendly one. After some convicing, the threatening presence resolved in the ship's Lead Scientist: [[Yan Vartha]]. If his cutlass is anything to go by, his skills reach beyond that of test tube and Matlab. Useful, though at the moment he seems somewhat withdrawn and not forthcoming.

The room next to our new friend's stinks fiercely. By his unspoken but piercing request, we leave it undisturbed. This does leave our personnel count somewhat less than accurate, but with two-thirds of the known ship-board staff already accounted for, the number of unaccounted for and unidentified corpses should be minimal.

We move on and find the medic's cabin, in which the light flicks off upon our approach. After entering the cabon, we test the lights and find that they are not motion-activated. This, then, supposes that whoever was in this room and fled upon our hail, was not Pent with her being photophobic, according to our previous encounter. Perhaps this is Yan's friend Holly?

We find more cabins, some neat, some in disarray. In the astrogator's cabin we come upon a personal electronic device, which we swiftly hack. Well, Heloise does. On it, we find 5 months worth of messages detailing communications with [[Butler Chemicals]]. We ponder the evidence and see if Yan will give us additional information on what the subject of the ship's research really was. He remains tight-snouted.

I gently imply that - with very limited survivors to speak against him and with a known and deceased rogue element aboard - Yan might have an out if he wants to uh... shift certain responsibilities if his research turns out to have.. let's call them minor ethical compliance concerns.
