We hold Kenya.

On the morning of November 6th, Initiative personnel successfully secured full executive control over Kenya’s national governance structure. The second control point fell without incident. Phillip Minton’s operation, long in motion, culminated with quiet precision. We now command both the civilian and military apparatus of Nairobi.

Kenya’s strategic value is manifold—proximity to global trade lanes, access to critical mineral routes, and a rising technological infrastructure. Its domestic politics remain unstable, but Initiative alignment has stabilized key administrative corridors.

This is our first nation. It will not be our last.

Kalameet Lund, following a failed outreach operation in Afghanistan, has been safely exfiltrated to Colombo, Sri Lanka. He remains under passive monitoring. His behavior continues to exhibit patterns of focused obsession following his contact with the Tashkent wreckage, but no further irregularities have emerged. He has been cleared for reactivation when needed.

Yiyuan Ai has returned from a second surveillance pass over Tashkent. Her findings confirm what we already suspect: the terrain is not recovering—it is transforming. Vegetation patterns now exhibit non-native density, resistance, and structural geometry. These are not simply alien plants. They are systems. Growing. Shaping. Persisting.

With Skywatch already active, our engineering division has shifted priority toward the Alien Flora project. Early-stage xenogenetic decoding is underway, with targeted probes to isolate metabolic pathways and growth triggers. We do not yet understand if this represents a form of colonization, communication, or unintentional seeding. But we will.

In orbit, the final phase of the Mission to Space research initiative has concluded. The global scientific community, prompted by alien presence, has aligned around the fundamentals of orbital adaptation. Project Exodus contributed the majority of late-stage breakthroughs and now spearheads the Orbital Shipbuilding framework. A series of near-Earth technologies—deep space propulsion, outpost habitation, and crewed transit systems—has been unlocked.

This will alter timelines. It will also alter wars.

Our own contribution to this research was limited. Internal resources remain focused on Earth-based stability, reconnaissance, and factional countermeasures. But we are watching.

One final note: with the Initiative’s influence growing, we have formally selected our internal advisory cadre. After review, we’ve emphasized international aid frameworks—support structures that will allow us to stabilize developing regions without drawing direct fire. This may buy us goodwill, or at least silence, as we expand.

The aliens have not struck. But they are watching. And so are we.
