- DISTRESS SIGNAL -
Attention, this is a Priority One distress message from the survivors at Jackson's Landing on the planet Lethe. We are broadcasting on all available channels.
The situation here has escalated to a critical state. All lines of communication with governance and security forces have been severed.
The creatures we are facing grow increasingly dangerous, showing new capabilities for rapid nesting and expansion. The situation is desperate.
Some of our scouts have reported seeing a contingent of Colonial Marines engaging the creatures. They appear seasoned, experienced in combat, and potentially knowledgeable about the threat we are facing. While it is unclear how they are faring, any information they possess could be invaluable to our survival.
If this message reaches anyone capable of providing assistance, we implore you to relay our distress signal to the Colonial Marines stationed on this planet—or better yet, come to our aid yourself.
You are our last hope. Please, help us.
End of Transmission.
