+Explorers, scientists, and combat-capable individuals sought for an expedition into recently charted tunnels on Kylal in order to round up cave beetles that may serve as a major food source as well as a degree of pest control.  Combat experience is essential.  Beetle-fighting experience is a bonus.  This is Kylal: dress appropriately.
+Respondents should meet with Ninth Truth at the surface-side Primary Access Outpost on Kylal two days from now for orientation and briefing.

 ===== Summary =====
-  * Bullet points on key events of the Mission
+  * The party are tasked by Ninth Truth with retrieving the BeetleVac Mk I which has been lost in the tunnels of Kylal in order to use it to build a better Mk II to trap Honey Beetles.
+  * Cautious, the party head into the tunnels and after fighting off some Cavern Worms and Paddlers find themselves with Captain Dark Ice, the explorer assumed dead that was working with the Mk I.
+  * Dark Ice explains that they've devised an improvement on the BeetleVac's filter based on Honey Crystals and sets the party on the task of stealing them from Honey Beetle nests.
+  * With that done, they return to Ninth Truth who works with Dark Ice to create an upgraded BeetleVac Mk II based on an autonomous drill unit which the party escort into the ice.
+  * On the way they discover more stone guardians like the sort Flow and Leaf had found previously in the tombs.  With an Intervention from //Endeavour//, Flow enables some communication with them and they convince the Crypt Guardians that they are lost and are let go on their way.
+  * One Decay Tunnel later, the party breach the Beetle Nest and start sucking up Beetles.  As soon as they're done, there's a roar and with another Intervention called by Flow to get them out there the party find themselves on //Endeavour//.  With the Beetle Queen.
+  * The close quarters fight is intense and sees both Flow and Leaf severely injured, but the Queen is subdued and the party is able to claim its rewards.
 ===== Aftermath =====
-  * Bullet points of what characters did in the aftermath of the mission
+  * Flow connects with linguistic researchers aboard //Endeavour// and the Mystics aboard //Her Glorious Command// to inform them of what she learned about being able to communicate with the Crypt Guardians on Kylal.  With Mystic Sanction, a research committee is formed to start work on trying to communicate with the Crypt Guardians but without a live specimen it's slow progress.  She notes that the Guardians respond better to 5-limbed creatures.
+  * Budding Leaf notes that there are some Crypt Guardians not too far into the tunnels which aids some research but the lack of a live specimen still holds progress here.
+  * Leaf devotes time to assisting with the study of the Honey Beetles and Rock Beetles.  Quickly, agricultural research is able to find a sensible way to store Worker Honey Beetles and pheremones are extracted from the Queen that make it easier to herd them around.  With the additional scanner data from Leaf, the Soldier Beetles are quickly weeded out of the batch of jarred beetles, and a farm is set up on the surface of Kylal.
 ===== Consequences =====
-  * Breakdown of consequences for characters - rewards, effects, contacts.
+  * //Endeavour// is now studying the anatomy of the Kylalian Queen Honey Beetle.
-  * Also mention any wider consequences for the world
+  * Kylal has access to a source of food from the Honey Beetles returned to its surface.
