Investigate Alien Abductions
Solution
Conduct Surveil Location missions in regions near any alien crash sites. If abductions are detected, send a councilor on an Investigate Alien Activity mission at that location.
Description		Resolution
We need to confirm whether alien abductions are taking place. Surveil the areas near the crash site, and send councilors to investigate anything suspicious.		We are at war. Our investigator has confirmed that multiple disappearances have taken place, of both humans and animals. The human disappearances in particular include people well outside the profile of typical missing persons reports. Until we learn otherwise, we must assume that they have been deliberately targeted by our alien visitors. Our worst fears are being realized. Unfortunately, we have no leads as to where the abductees may have been taken, or how to stop the attacks from continuing. All we can do is continue to investigate.

Investigate Alien Abductions
Solution
Conduct Surveil Location missions in regions near any alien crash sites. If abductions are detected, send a councilor on an Investigate Alien Activity mission to that location.
Description		Resolution
Reports are continuing to surface of missing animals and people in the regions near the alien crash site. Using the Surveil Location mission in those regions will help us detect those events. When we confirm such a report, we should investigate it for any signs of alien activity.		Our councilor has investigated some of these reported abductions, interviewing residents and local authorities. The local government continues to deny that anything has happened, and in fact has done its best to actively hinder us. Though we have no proof as yet, we suspect that other organizations are pulling strings to block our investigations. Despite the obstacles, our councilor has confirmed that a small but statistically significant number of people and animals have gone missing in the area since the alien crash-landing. This is disturbing news – many among our faction had clung to the hope that despite their secrecy, the intentions of the aliens towards our species might be benevolent, or at least neutral. These apparent abductions leave little chance of that. But what is their purpose?

The alien is taking people, Commander. We need to learn why.

Solution

Description		Resolution
The majority of our research team believe the recent claims of alien abductions are simply a product of local superstition and media hysteria, but the frequency of the reports is becoming disturbing. Perhaps we should investigate.		Although we cannot rule out the possibility of a hoax, a statistically significant quantity of animals and humans have been reported missing in the area surrounding the alien spacecraft's crash-landing. Although our researchers are far more interested in the possibilities of the alien technology, it's probably worth taking a closer look.

Something strange and unfortunate appears to be underway, Director, but we must keep pursuing more information.

Investigate Alien Abductions
Solution
Conduct Surveil Location missions in regions near any alien crash sites. If abductions are detected, send a councilor on an Investigate Alien Activity mission at that location.
Description		Resolution
We have been hoping to open some sort of dialogue with our alien visitors, but so far all attempts to locate them have been unsuccessful. At present, our only leads are the reports of disappearances in the area.		After a thorough investigation, it seems clear that the aliens are targeting and abducting individual humans; some animals also disappeared early on but this seems to have been quickly halted. This raises troubling questions. While a handful of human abductions of course pose no large-scale threat, they do suggest that the alien objectives may be fundamentally adversarial to ours. We must investigate further.

We're having trouble envisioning the aliens as any kind of business opportunity.

Solution

Description		Resolution
Who are these aliens, and what do they want? We have our answer, and it is not promising. Humans and animals have been disappearing in the region of the spaceship crash. We will soon know more ... but I suspect it will not be good news.		The disappearances are worrying not in their number – humans kill each other in greater numbers on an hourly basis – but in what they imply. Abductions imply research, imply selection, but they are actions one performs upon lesser creatures. We capture a shark or a rare bird for study; we do not do the same to our neighbor. As yet many people still hold out the hope of cooperation with the aliens, but as this news spreads their numbers will plummet. Our list of allies may soon grow thin indeed.

Chancellor, I have worrying news regarding alien behavior.

Investigate Alien Abductions
Solution
Conduct Surveil Location missions in regions near any alien crash sites. If abductions are detected, send a councilor on an Investigate Alien Activity mission at that location.
Description		Resolution
There is disturbing news. We have received reports of missing animals and human beings in the regions near to the crash site. Already the more xenophobic voices in the media are blaming the aliens. It is essential that we investigate this as soon as possible. If this is some kind of propaganda operation designed to harm human-alien relations, we must uncover it as soon as possible. We cannot allow a handful of loud-mouthed bigots to sabotage our future.		We have investigated the disappearances. At first we suspected the incidents of being manufactured, but after some cross-checking it does appear that a certain number of creatures of various species, as well as several humans, have gone missing as reported. However, we have found no proof of any kind that the aliens are responsible. Given how tense and potentially explosive our current situation, we feel it would be grossly irresponsible to encourage anyone to believe the conspiracy theories currently being peddled by groups such as the so-called "Resistance." As such, our official position is that these disappearances are the work of anti-alien extremists seeking to drive a wedge between us and our alien visitors. It makes no sense, after all – why would aliens cross the vastness of outer space just to abduct some backwoods locals? It seems far more likely that the aliens are being used as a convenient scapegoat. All members of our organization will be issued directives accordingly. We must speak with one voice on this matter.

We must get to the bottom of these bizarre disappearances, Commissioner.

Investigate Their First Contacts
Solution
Conduct Surveil Location missions in regions near any alien crash sites. If abductions are detected, send a councilor on an Investigate Alien Activity mission at that location.
Description		Resolution
Many of our followers believe that I am all-knowing. This is not true, but I admit, I allow them to believe it – a certain amount of mystique can be useful. With you, though, I will be honest, and in all honesty, I do not know what the aliens are doing. But I do know why they are doing it. The aliens did not come here because they hate us, as the more xenophobic among our species believe. Nor did they come in friendship, as the more naive ones do. They did not come for profit, or for power, or out of necessity. They came here because they are lost. They do not understand this, as yet, and neither do the people of Earth. But they will. It is our task to help them see.		Discreet questioning has revealed a number of disappearances, some of animals, but most of humans. All evidence does seem to confirm that these disappearances are the work of the emissaries. This is disconcerting, and I will not pretend it is good news. Perhaps things could have unfolded differently were we the ones to make first contact. Still, we must adapt. The aliens clearly have their reasons for doing what they do. For now, we must have faith.

Having faith does not mean to be rigid, Superior. It means to follow the flow.
