Lench was a young scientist when he first discovered the Elysium System and the existence of the Tevarin in 2541.\n\nBEGIN:\n2541.11.06_20:34 SET\nLOCATION: Yar\nI can\u2019t take this anymore. 263 straight days of solitude in this \u201cresearch\u201d station with only the spectrum to keep me company. Heck, even the spectrum isn\u2019t always there for me. Sometimes the swirling red sands are so thick and vicious that they block out the signal. Or damage my transmitter. I\u2019ve had to fix that thing so many times I consider myself an honorary electrical engineer by now.\n\nIt\u2019s funny, Dad. Even though I know you won\u2019t receive this message for days, I can already hear your response to what I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll deem \u2018petty complaints.\u2019 Ever since I was a boy, you filled my head with stories of scientists willing to risk everything to make the universe a better place. \u201cGreat scientists sacrifice their life for their discoveries,\u201d you\u2019d say. It sounded like a dangerous and exciting proposition as a kid. Now I know it\u2019s anything but that.\n\nI still remember the look on your face when I told you about this research job. You were so proud. Your boy was being whisked away to live alone on a frontier world and do research for the good of Humanity. Confident that your son must have been hired for some extremely important work.\n\nWell, I regret to inform you that I wasn\u2019t. Turns out the New Horizons Research Institute is nothing more than a subsidiary of the Hathor Group. It took some digging to uncover the details, but when I found the proof, it all made sense. It explained why my only job was to deploy small research drones to search Yar\u2019s mountains for resources. There\u2019s nothing of scientific importance to be found around here. Only a hunt to help enrich a conglomerate that already owns its own system.\n\nI can\u2019t it take it anymore, Dad. I can\u2019t keep sitting here, all alone, conducting \u2018scientific scans\u2019 and sweeping away this bloody sand. You raised me to pursue science, not to be a corporate shill for it.\n\nSo I hope you understand why I\u2019m abandoning my post. Please don\u2019t send your response here. I\u2019ll contact you again once I know where I\u2019m going.\n\n2541.11.09_13:41 SET\nLOCATION: Fujin City\nI have to admit, it\u2019s been strange returning to a world where I\u2019m not the only person in a 1,000-kilometer radius. Actually, it\u2019s why I came here first. I knew I could always escape to a park if I got overwhelmed by the craziness of the city. That and because I always knew you loved this planet.\n\n\u201cIf you don\u2019t see Fujin City before you die, then you\u2019re a fool,\u201d I remember you telling all your friends after returning from your conference here. Well, Dad, you can rest easy because I\u2019ve seen it. Though, considering what I just did, I don\u2019t think it completely absolves me from being a fool.\n\nBefore I left Yar, I submitted a letter of resignation to my superior at New Horizons. I didn\u2019t, however, sit around waiting for a response. I just left. Doubt that\u2019ll make her too happy, but I\u2019m trying not to dwell on the consequences to come.\n\nI want to focus on what I can do to make a real difference in this world, like you taught me. At least my time on Yar gave me a crash course on research drones. I\u2019ve gotten pretty good with them, actually. Maybe I can figure out a new way to put them to use.\n\n2541.11.15_19:19 SET\nLOCATION: Centauri System\nDad \u2026 you won\u2019t believe this. Not at first, I\u2019m sure, but you will. The entire UPE\u2019s going to be talking about this. I discovered a new system!\n\nBut that\u2019s not even the craziest part. One of its worlds is teeming with advanced life. There were lights everywhere, large structures that looked like temples and an impressive city built into a mountaintop. I so wanted to do deeper scans, but I didn\u2019t want to get too close. Figured it was best to maintain a safe distance for now.\n\nOkay, I have to admit, I did send a research drone down to the planet. Figured the more information I could bring back the better. Just to prove that I wasn\u2019t lying. I\u2019d find all this hard to believe if I hadn\u2019t seen it myself.\n\nBut don\u2019t worry, I didn\u2019t do anything else. It should be government dignitaries and diplomats that make first contact. Not some guy who got lucky enough to find his way there.\n\nI wish I could tell you that I intended to make this discovery. After leaving Fujin City, I spent a few days drifting through space and experimenting with the settings on my research drones. Then this morning, one of them returned data I couldn\u2019t make heads or tails of, so I set out along its route.\n\nAs I approached where the readings got interesting, I felt that familiar tug on the front of my ship. Right then, I knew I\u2019d found a jump point. I have never been more excited and scared at the same time.\n\nI almost turned away from it. You know I\u2019m not the best of pilots. I was worried I might not survive the jump.\n\nThen I heard your voice in the back of my head, \u201cGreat scientists sacrifice their life for their discoveries.\u201d Once that was echoing through my head, I couldn\u2019t let you down. Especially after walking away from my responsibilities on Yar.\n\nEventually, I lost contact with the drone that I had sent down to the planet. My scans showed a few of their ships heading my way.

Lench war ein junger Wissenschaftler, als er 2541 das Elysium-System und die Existenz des Tevarins entdeckte.\n\nANFANG:\n2541.11.06_20:34 GESETZT\nSTANDORT: Yar\nIch kann das nicht mehr ertragen. 263 gerade Tage Einsamkeit in dieser \"Forschungsstation\" mit nur dem Spektrum, um mir Gesellschaft zu leisten. Verdammt, nicht einmal das Spektrum ist immer f\u00fcr mich da. Manchmal sind die wirbelnden roten Sande so dick und b\u00f6sartig, dass sie das Signal ausblenden. Oder meinen Sender besch\u00e4digen. Ich musste das schon so oft reparieren, dass ich mich inzwischen als ehrenamtlicher Elektroingenieur bezeichne.\n\nEs ist lustig, Dad. Auch wenn ich wei\u00df, dass Sie diese Nachricht tagelang nicht erhalten werden, kann ich bereits Ihre Antwort auf das h\u00f6ren, was Sie sicher als \"geringf\u00fcgige Beschwerden\" betrachten werden. Seit ich ein Junge war, hast du meinen Kopf mit Geschichten von Wissenschaftlern gef\u00fcllt, die bereit sind, alles zu riskieren, um das Universum zu einem besseren Ort zu machen. \"Gro\u00dfe Wissenschaftler opfern ihr Leben f\u00fcr ihre Entdeckungen\", w\u00fcrde man sagen. Es klang wie ein gef\u00e4hrlicher und aufregender Vorschlag als Kind. Jetzt wei\u00df ich, dass es alles andere als das ist.\n\nIch erinnere mich noch an den Ausdruck in deinem Gesicht, als ich dir von diesem Forschungsauftrag erz\u00e4hlte. Du warst so stolz. Dein Junge wurde weggebracht, um allein an einer Grenzlandschaft zu leben und zum Wohle der Menschheit zu forschen. Ich bin zuversichtlich, dass Ihr Sohn f\u00fcr eine \u00e4u\u00dferst wichtige Arbeit eingestellt wurde.\n\nNun, ich bedaure, Ihnen mitteilen zu m\u00fcssen, dass ich es nicht war. Es stellte sich heraus, dass das New Horizons Research Institute nichts anderes ist als eine Tochtergesellschaft der Hathor-Gruppe. Es bedurfte einiger Grabungen, um die Details aufzudecken, aber als ich den Beweis fand, machte alles Sinn. Es erkl\u00e4rte, warum meine einzige Aufgabe darin bestand, kleine Forschungsdrohnen einzusetzen, um Yars Berge nach Ressourcen zu durchsuchen. Hier gibt es nichts von wissenschaftlicher Bedeutung. Nur eine Jagd, um ein Konglomerat zu bereichern, das bereits ein eigenes System besitzt.\n\nIch kann es nicht mehr ertragen, Dad. Ich kann hier nicht weiter sitzen, ganz allein, \"wissenschaftliche Scans\" durchf\u00fchren und diesen blutigen Sand wegfegen. Du hast mich erzogen, die Wissenschaft zu verfolgen, nicht, um ein Firmenschreiber daf\u00fcr zu sein.\n\nIch hoffe, du verstehst, warum ich meinen Posten verlasse. Bitte senden Sie Ihre Antwort nicht hier. Ich werde dich wieder kontaktieren, sobald ich wei\u00df, wohin ich gehe.\n\n2541.11.09_13:41 GESETZT\nStandort: Fujin City\nIch muss zugeben, es war seltsam, in eine Welt zur\u00fcckzukehren, in der ich nicht die einzige Person in einem Radius von 1.000 Kilometern bin. Eigentlich bin ich deshalb zuerst hierher gekommen. Ich wusste, dass ich immer in einen Park entkommen konnte, wenn ich von der Verr\u00fccktheit der Stadt \u00fcberw\u00e4ltigt wurde. Das und weil ich immer wusste, dass du diesen Planeten liebst.\n\n\"Wenn du Fujin City nicht siehst, bevor du stirbst, dann bist du ein Narr\", erinnere ich mich, dass du es all deinen Freunden erz\u00e4hlt hast, nachdem du von deiner Konferenz hier zur\u00fcckgekehrt bist. Nun, Dad, du kannst dich beruhigen, weil ich es gesehen habe. Obwohl, wenn man bedenkt, was ich gerade getan habe, glaube ich nicht, dass es mich komplett davon entbindet, ein Narr zu sein.\n\nBevor ich Yar verlie\u00df, reichte ich meinem Vorgesetzten bei New Horizons ein R\u00fccktrittsgesuch ein. Ich sa\u00df jedoch nicht herum und wartete auf eine Antwort. Ich bin gerade gegangen. Ich bezweifle, dass es sie zu gl\u00fccklich machen wird, aber ich versuche, nicht auf die Folgen zu warten.\n\nIch m\u00f6chte mich auf das konzentrieren, was ich tun kann, um einen echten Unterschied in dieser Welt zu machen, wie du es mir beigebracht hast. Zumindest meine Zeit auf Yar gab mir einen Crashkurs \u00fcber Forschungsdrohnen. Ich bin ziemlich gut mit ihnen umgegangen. Vielleicht kann ich einen neuen Weg finden, sie zu nutzen.\n\n2541.11.15_19:19 GESETZT\nSTANDORT: Centauri System\nDad.... du wirst es nicht glauben. Zuerst nicht, da bin ich mir sicher, aber das wirst du. Die gesamte UPE wird dar\u00fcber reden. Ich habe ein neues System entdeckt!\n\nAber das ist nicht einmal der verr\u00fcckteste Teil. Eine seiner Welten ist das Leben im fortgeschrittenen Alter. \u00dcberall gab es Lichter, gro\u00dfe Strukturen, die wie Tempel aussahen, und eine beeindruckende Stadt, die in einen Berggipfel eingebaut war. Ich wollte so gerne tiefere Scans machen, aber ich wollte nicht zu nahe kommen. Ich dachte, es w\u00e4re am besten, vorerst einen Sicherheitsabstand einzuhalten.\n\nOkay, ich muss zugeben, ich habe eine Forschungsdrohne auf den Planeten geschickt. Ich dachte, je mehr Informationen ich zur\u00fcckbringen k\u00f6nnte, desto besser. Nur um zu beweisen, dass ich nicht l\u00fcge. Ich w\u00fcrde es kaum glauben, wenn ich es nicht selbst gesehen h\u00e4tte.\n\nAber keine Sorge, ich habe nichts anderes getan. Es sollten Regierungsvertreter und Diplomaten sein, die den ersten Kontakt herstellen. Nicht irgendein Kerl, der das Gl\u00fcck hatte, den Weg dorthin zu finden.\n\nIch w\u00fcnschte, ich k\u00f6nnte dir sagen, dass ich diese Entdeckung machen wollte. Nachdem ich Fujin City verlassen hatte, verbrachte ich einige Tage damit, durch den Weltraum zu driften und mit den Einstellungen meiner Forschungsdrohnen zu experimentieren. Heute Morgen gab einer von ihnen Daten zur\u00fcck, von denen ich keine Ahnung hatte, also machte ich mich auf den Weg.\n\nAls ich mich n\u00e4herte, wo die Messwerte interessant wurden, f\u00fchlte ich dieses vertraute Schleppen an der Vorderseite meines Schiffes. Da wusste ich, dass ich einen Sprungpunkt gefunden hatte. Ich war noch nie so aufgeregt und ver\u00e4ngstigt zugleich.\n\nIch habe mich fast davon abgewandt. Du wei\u00dft, dass ich nicht der beste Pilot bin. Ich hatte Angst, dass ich den Sprung nicht \u00fcberleben k\u00f6nnte.\n\nDann h\u00f6rte ich deine Stimme im Hinterkopf: \"Gro\u00dfe Wissenschaftler opfern ihr Leben f\u00fcr ihre Entdeckungen.\" Als das in meinem Kopf widerhallt, kann ich dich nicht im Stich lassen. Besonders, nachdem ich mich von meiner Verantwortung auf Yar verabschiedet habe.\n\nSchlie\u00dflich verlor ich den Kontakt zu der Drohne, die ich auf den Planeten geschickt hatte. Meine Scans zeigten, dass einige ihrer Schiffe auf mich zukommen. Also dachte ich, ich gehe besser zur\u00fcck zu Centauri, bevor sie mich finden. W\u00fcrde es hassen, diejenige zu sein, die einen Vorfall verursacht hat.\n\nIch habe die offizielle UPE-Dokumentation kurz vor Beginn dieser Nachricht ausgef\u00fcllt, aber ich musste anhalten und eine Pause einlegen. Alles wurde pl\u00f6tzlich so \u00fcberw\u00e4ltigend. Es gab die ganze Zeit \u00fcber eine v\u00f6llig unbekannte Spezies, die uns so nahe stand, und ich war derjenige, der sie gefunden hat. Ein Teil von mir will sie mein eigenes kleines Geheimnis bewahren, aber ich wei\u00df, dass das nicht fair ist. Wie die Banu m\u00fcssen wir ihnen unsere Welt \u00f6ffnen. Ich bin sicher, es gibt viel, was wir voneinander lernen k\u00f6nnen.\n\nNachdem ich meine Ergebnisse gemeldet habe, gehe ich nach Hause, um alle Details mit Ihnen zu besprechen. Diese Art ist einfach unglaublich! Ich kann es kaum erwarten, bis zu dem Tag, an dem wir einen pers\u00f6nlich treffen k\u00f6nnen.\n\nKorrespondenz beenden","zh_CN":"Today Discovered presents the personal correspondence of Dr. Kellar Lench, on loan to us from the Gemma Museum of Interspecies Tolerance.
