Working together, Thraxius and Baromir managed to track the "courier" to a disused supply closet, but their man had already vanished.  Upon a thermal scan, it became obvious he had jumped down a turbolift shaft, depositing himself deep inside the bowels of the ship, probably with the mutants of the lower decks.<br/><br/>The box of xenotech machine parts, on further inspection, contained a simple, handwritten note tucked into the bottom of the box.  "We Know."<br/><br/>Upon an even more careful inspection, each part had a tiny chaos star delicately etched into it, to taint the machine spirit beyond repair.  The devices were carefully disenfected before being placed in the box, which had apparently been stolen from the Tau stockpiles along with the machine parts.<br/><br/>(at this point, I'll call for a willpower roll by Thraxius to not reflexively try to determine the function of the machine spirits of the xenotech, unless he carefully avoids being in the same room as it)
