OOC: Hope this is Ok...

IC: ''On Yevata's mainland, a team of computer scientists have managed to make a partial decryption of the Harlothian base computer language. The computer scientists haven't tried to decipher the actual Harlothian language, the cryptologists and linguistics would deal with that later. Right now, Yevata wants to construct a basic knowledge of the Harlothian's computer systems and how they operate, including the base machine binary. They construct a preliminary message, but before that, Adilen R Breshinsky types up an offical reply to the Harlothians, in binary.''

"We apologize for disabling your probe, but I hope you understand that, under the circumstances, while we understand you were not hostile, we did not know if you would allow us to have an example of your technology, so we had one of our corvettes... 'disable' it, and then 'board' it. We do not intend for this to be taken hostilely, but I think you can understand that we wanted to see what kind of technology you had. Very sorry for the damage that was un-intentionally caused to the probe, we will repay you back in due time."

Sent next was a rough first attempt at communicating with the Harlothian machinery
