Justicius Resk, I am pleased finally to bring you a little positive news. Attached to this message is the first entry from Probator Symeon Dymaxion-Noctis’ journal that we have managed to decode. Alas, the transcript cipher continues to frustrate the best of our lexators. I continue to petition the Adeptus Mechanicus for official aid in decrypting the documents but they are unforthcoming. I shall persist. Forgive me, I make no excuses, I only seek to keep your honour apprised of all discoveries appertaining to this sorry affair, no matter how small.

In the meantime, there is some interest to be gleaned from Dymaxion-Noctis’ account here regarding the state of his mind a few months before the incident. It is noteworthy that the journal appears to be addressed to a reader, as yet whom I have not been able to determine. Dymaxion-Noctis himself will not say. He remains remarkably stubborn in this regard. Since his district records were purged – almost certainly by his hand – it has been hard to pin anything down regarding his past. His family are deliberately obstructive, and will not release their archives to me. They have influence that goes beyond anything I can personally bring to bear, and the Adeptus Arbites have made it quite clear to me that they will not be involving themselves any further. If I may be so impertinent to ask, perhaps you might have more success with either the higher authorities or with the family? Your station is more exalted than mine; they may listen to you.

I think Dymaxion-Noctis is enjoying my frustration. His heart rate spiked when I told him we’d cracked a part of his journal, and although he was back to his usual, contemptuous self within minutes, I admit to a certain triumphalism in my attitude towards him afterward, as I felt we may be getting somewhere. For this small sin I ask forgiveness of both you and the Emperor, my lord. I assure you my enthusiasm did not affect my judgement.

The entry we decrypted comprises a mixture of audex, vid, pict and text (all materials appertaining to this document are appended to this missive [ref Omicron-7, eyes only]). However, Dymaxion-Noctis seems to favour writing as his key mode of expression. He has a bit of literary flair, so for ease of digestion I have taken the liberty of condensing the original into this text version, supplementing it in the one or two places it was necessary with words of my own based upon the other materials [see appended index for additional elements].
