Despite transportation troubles, the last mission was quite the success, in my opinion. I took at least 72 hours worth of ambient footage and it is quite mesmerizing. I found myself distracted more than once during review to see what needed to be cut. One of my cameras did get quite a bit of footage of the mini-crab pilgrimage migration journey exodus infestation. They remind me more of caterpillars, minus around 86 legs, with the way they moved about. Thankfully they did not ruin any equipment, but I did find a group in my lens bag during the decontamination process. Very interesting how they group together like that, most likely for protection's sake as they're likely easy prey if separated. I would've liked to see what they were running from, but I'm not sure we would've had the right tools to fight back if it's as big as a crawler or a sandworm. The flamethrower can only do so much. Renji sir, the videos I've sent this time around are more picturesque rather than adventurous. I was trying to convey the environment as inticing. Please enjoy.

Hello. I was wondering if Marui sir could have access to the footage regarding the crawler attacks during the expedition he was a member of. Are there any parts he can't view? If so, I can redact, and send a copy for approval before providing to Marui sir. Thank you very much for your consideration in this matter.

There was only one message in my communications this month. My goldfish, Kodak, passed away. He was 12 years old. I knew it would happen as his swimming had gotten slower in the months prior to my trip, which is why I didn't bring him with me to Yomi. Plus, with how the chickens mutated, I'm not sure that my fish wouldn't have done the same. They gave him a proper funeral and provided a picture of him in his fish tank from before he was found deceased. My brother had been taking care of him in my absence, so I'm okay knowing that Kodak was well taken care of in his final months. On the topic of death, Byodoin sir and Tooyama sir were amazing during the expedition and rescue, both taking out very large creatures without blinking an eye. I'm currently in the process of editing -- Renji sir, please check your comms this Saturday for the next promo videos -- as rewatching the material is quite inspiring. I know my editors will absolutely love this next segment. If anyone would like to see some of the battles, please let me know and I'll send a small clip.
