First Officer Dallas has confirmed for me that there is indeed a plot within the cult; A plot to assassinate Miss Castilin, of Magnus Enterprises. We also know that we have less than a month in which to stop them. Now, it could be enough to satisfy our end, were we to simply return with this information. However, it is imperative to the stability of the subsector that this plot is stopped. As we do not yet have evidence to prove the cult's guilt, we must continue to proceed without drawing the wrath of the Fellowship.

Urlek has suggested using his psykic powers to obtain the information we need directly from the mind of Sigmaris Gorma, however, such actions, if we are found out and cannot present proper justification, could end poorly for us. Another option would be to do the same to Grialin Varno, as he makes for an easier target. It is advantageous that neither he nor Sigmaris have encountered Urlek before, which could make it easier for him to obtain this information without being tied directly to us.

Another option that may be possible with the inroads we have already made with the cult, is bringing the assassins to us, instead. At this stage, both Sigmaris and Grailin believe us to be sympathetic to the Cult. It may be possible to trick them into having us handle the delivery of these assassins. While this may not give us evidence of the plot, once the assassins are on my vessel, they are subject to my authority. Then again, they may already be planning on using the Burrana to transport their assassins as it is, without our knowing. We do after all take on new passengers on planets such as this without my knowing. The recent incident with the Inquisitorial Aquilla is prime example of this. If the cult’s agent is in a position to manage loading and offloading of passengers or cargo, we may already have the cult’s hired guns on our ship already. I should order a thorough investigation of our cargo and passengers before we depart for the surface again.
