To begin, the following information has been ascertained over the course of several months research. Documentation taken from the Star Lord-class ship in the Dragoon’s possession until its decommission in 3002 indicate that it was the Torannchless, a transport ship in service with the 17th Army of the Star League Defence Force. The identity was then verified from records of transit through both Free World League and Lyran Commonwealth space. Furthermore, a request was made with Comstar to view SLDF dispatch orders, particularly those of the 17th Army during their station in the Periphery. The battle tactics, command history, and post-SLDF records were used to narrow the field from which regiment this group developed. In the end, all indications led to that of the 38th Dragoon, an abandoned heavy assault group believed to have been marooned and later lost within the Magistracy of Canopus Sector of the Periphery. Remnants of recordings, journals, and combat logs have been used to formulate a timeline of events:
-Marcus “Aranzor” Nolan, Librarian of Blackthornes Dragoons.
