This may not have been the way I had envisioned my great work of unifying my people and bringing prosperity to my planet. There are many lives that I would liked to have saved if we only had the time. In the end, however, I did what I set out to do. I brought the people out from the darkness into a new and hopeful. I have given them a life in greater richness and abundance than what they had known before. I have freed them from their old way of life, that they may live together as one united people. If I were to die, and this were to be the only accomplishment to have been attributed to my name, I would not feel ashamed of it. Yet there is so much more still to be done. The work of my house on this planet, and in this subsector is still in its infancy. Someday the people Chawii will traverse the stars as I do, they will explore unknown and forgotten worlds as I have done here, and they will bring the glory of the emperor with them. Would that you could have seen this new day that we have brought about, SIN. Because of you, Chawii can now see a new dawn, and the first of a great many. I do not know if this is was one of the two paths given or an entirely different path altogether. What I do know is that it was the path of my choosing, and I am glad to have walked it.

To be honest, I wasn't certain what SIN was going to do with me. Perhaps neither didn't SIN when it demanded me as a hostage. It is lamentable that we could not let SIN be free to roam the stars, but that is not possible in the dark and chaos-tainted galaxy we live in. So I gave it what I could. I hope that the tales I shared were a suitable consolation.

The potential of my world has unfolded in ways that I am only beginning to imagine. Ore deposits now litter the surface among the common rock, in wait of harvesting. Beyond that that, Chawii is now a beautiful and fertile world, that people would flock by the thousands to settle. On the negative side, there may be envious neighbors who would also think to seize my planet for themselves. If that happens, my Chawii must be ready to defend itself, both militarily and diplomatically. I must resume my voyages before too long, as we will need trade agreements, colonial contracts and alliances among my neighbors to ensure that Chawii can continue to develop in relative peace.

If there is no other major ecclesiarchal presence within the subsector, I may need to reforge a working relationship with the Nerali Fellowship. There are many among the former tribes that now see me as a god. We must act quickly to correct them that I am but a servant of the one true God Emperor of Mankind, working by and for his will. Negotiations may be difficult, as I would like to ensure that my people are unexposed to the inflammatory teachings of the Cult of the Pure Form. I am hoping that my work thus far in spreading the knowledge of the Emperor and his ways among the people of Chawii will regain me some favor with the mainstream of the Ecclesiarchy.

I should also return to the Red Brotherhood to tell them of my findings and accomplishments. While the thrill of my discovery may not be so great, now that I have expended it to rebuild my planet, there may yet be something worth salvaging hidden beneath the planet's surface, for which I would be willing to let them conduct an excavation. At the very least, the fact that I was able to locate this lost piece of archeotech may increase my renown among their kind.

Still, I am concerned for the future of the subsector. In some ways the teachings of the Red Brotherhood are almost as dangerous to the tenuous peace in this subsector as the Cult of the Pure Form. I wonder if my leanings would have been different, had I been tasked by the Fellowship to uncover the machinations of the Brotherhood? The great storm of war is looming on the horizon, and I must see to it that we not only weather it, but also remain true to the emperor's course.

I've been giving thought to empty positions on my vessel. I am in the opinion that Captain Rodan would be the ideal candidate for Master of Arms. We need someone with a keen tactical mind, and she has displayed just that.

As for the position of first officer, Trust shows a lot of promise in fulfilling the needs of the station. He will need further training and experience for certain, but in time I believe in time he will become worthy of the role.
