    Penal Colony 2376 AKA "Dusk" was a standard enough penal colony, housing the worst of USCM criminals on a jungle planet in council space. However, 6 months after its establishment, something happened. Several people with the knowledge to crack their encryption have managed to glean some information on what happened.

    Month 6, Week 2. The colony is beset by invaders. Assumed to be the natives of the planet. The guards soon learned to keep their patrols inside the complex, as all guards who attempted to patrol the outside of the complex were killed.

    Month 6, Week 3. Riots begin to breakout due to the lack of guards, it is expected that the rest of the guards were killed at this time. The invaders have begun attacking the walls of the facility, but seem to have no luck piercing the thick stone walls.

    Month 6, Week 4. The invaders breach the complex. The great panic caused by this resulted in the death of most of the prisoners. The invaders were smart enough to cut the power, stopping any chance of distress calls. It is expected that more than half of the prisoners were slaughtered by this point.

    Month 7, Week 1. The final surviving humans are killed. A brief message was sent out, warning others to stay away from the colony. While some consider this to be an elaborate trap, other belive this to be a tragedy. The USCM could not be reached for a comment.

    *All of this would be posted to a conspiracy theorist type blog*
