"Well, it's a shame to lose the whole ship. I suppose we'll have to decontaminate everything that we'll salvage from here." Says Krakrefr as he stares at the cargohold.

"Seems like something went on. Maybe Something that is in the cargo hold caused this. I will check the computer to see if there is any references to the symptoms."
Shuth will look in the medical records to see if anything like this has been reported before and possible solutions to the illness.
I'd guess we're not going to be ambushed by toothy aliens or anything else that needs shooting. Shall we do a thorough search? Interesting lack of oxygen in the air. I suppose it was breathed out, but maybe it is another sypmtom. Or another crazy theory. Anyway, let's see if we can find more clues. And watch out for strange thoughts .
Ajit is shaken to his core when he listens to this engineers recorder with the group. As Njall starts talking about psionic xenos, Ajit nods his head and says "I don't want anything to do with those psionic menaces. We need to grab what we can as fast as we can and leave. I'll move on to the bridge, maybe one or two can come with and the rest can search cargo for anything worthwhile."
The records that Shuth does have indicate that the symptoms could be the result of many different illness or psionic assault of some kind. There are several animals throughout the Imperium that utilize psionics in some form or another; some to paralyze or even kill their prey, others as part of reproduction. Shuths search is ultimately very broad as are the possible solutions depending on what the cause is.
"Hopefully someone aboard kept the manifests on a handcomp. Maybe a diary too. I'll search the crew deck, see if there are any devices with charge. That recording talks about passengers. Maybe that's the vector. We'll need to search that deck too. I assume Vance will be on the Bridge, but that may be our last call. Are we going to split up and cover the whole area at once, or work together and clear each section quickly?"
Shuth passes the information he has on to the away team. "I just need to know more to be able to narrow possible causes down. Since it could be a number of things keep your suits on just in case after you restore power.
