NARRATIVE: After gaining more intel from the Molin, the Endeavour moved to the Nwr System to make First Contact with the Vayttians. Upon arrival at the system, we detected a Vayt fleet on the edge of the sector. We later learnt that this fleet was headed for the Nelaraan System in the Alpha 7190 Sector, the Vayttians having declared war on the Nelaraan Empire.
First Contact was initiated by Captain Nimitz, with this officer monitoring the wider situation. Captain Nimitz spoke with a Vayt called Beyyla Jinnah Trole who styled herself as the Nivay or First Person of the Vayt. Discussions with Vayyolet showed that this was a new position created after the end of the Vayt Civil War. Nivay Trole asked if we were allied with the Nelaraan Empire, which we responded that we were not. They were happy with this and told us that they had declared war on the Nelaraans. After trading information packages, we concluded the talks and then departed towards the Alpha 7190 Sector to confirm whether or not the fleet was heading in that direction. We were able to confirm that this was the case.
Meanwhile, Vayyolet grew increasingly concerned about the situation on her home planet. When asked if she wanted to return home, she was not able to reply, and it was decided that she was rather overwhelmed at the entirety of the situation. We have therefore not returned her home and she still resides on the Endeavour.
RECOMMENDATION: The Prime Directive applies in terms of the Vayttian-Nelaraan War, and other than updating our records and warning civilian ships to avoid these systems, we should not intervene. Any further exploration of the Nwr Sector will involve respecting Vayttian borders whilst the war is ongoing.
There is a further complication regarding Vayyolet. She informed us that she had a recall order to serve aboard the V.S.S. Veyya. By now, I am certain that she has been registered as going AWOL. I feel that return will be increasingly difficult for her now.
