9th of October, 2015:

We received a call from the council, apparently the EXALT operative we captured months ago finally talked... honestly, when they first contacted us, I wasn't sure what they were talking about, it's been that long.

I hate to make assumptions about the competence of the council's interrogator, but either that EXALT operative has a will that would frankly make Cerberus seem like a mewling baby having a panic attack over not having its favourite blanket to hand, or they really have no idea how to extract information from a prisoner. I have little doubt that if we had been allowed to hand him over to Dr. Vahlen, we'd have had him talking within the day.

Nevertheless, what we learned lead us to a convoy on a dam in France. How the operative knew where the convoy would be, months after the fact, hints at how far ahead they had planned their moves. I can only imagine what we could have done had they worked with us, rather than against us.

What we found at the dam, was an alien attack force, currently in the process of tearing the dam apart in an attempt to recapture the cargo of that convoy. The /human/ cargo, though exactly how human remains to be seen. Annette (if that is indeed her name, still waiting on confirmation of her back-story) clearly has some sort of latent psionic powers, something that the aliens and exalt were willing to spend significant resources in order to acquire, and for the time being, the council have placed her in our care. While I'm a little uneasy about this, I can't deny that given our facilities, this is probably the best place for her, and she even shows an interest in joining the fight against the aliens... an old score to settle?
