Please find attached a routine observation report from the Panopticon Corps of Elwynn which has been circulated to MoMA Main Building. SHINE has made two insertions into the text mid-transmission. Communications Officer will advise SHINE that this, whilst demonstrating their reassuring omnipresence, compromises data integrity and information security and as such is a practice that should be discouraged.

Subject: Suspected Mage Activity (Kehl’Jat)
1. This day entered port at Vijayanagara a Babkhan flagged MM-610 Fast Merchant, of an antique Gotzborg design. Under declaration to the Harbourmaster the vessel is cited as being the SS Shaykh Mukhtar Robow (82-MM-610) under the command of Captain Behrouz Zia who is in the employ of Osman-Almagro Industries. [SHINE Note: This vessel was one of eight Osman-Almagro Shipping merchantmen leased to the Imperial Babkhan Navy as a logistics support vessel prior to the Blackfriar Usurpation. Its movements subsequent to that event have been unknown.];
2. The cargo manifest reads as a consignment of x40 units of unspecified machine tools from Osman-Almagro Industries to “Tractor Factory No.1”, Ardashirshahr, [SHINE Note: Request MoMA to confirm provenance of these items];
3. Of greater interest is the fact that the Shaykh Mukhtar Robow made a stop in Tymaria City, Norfolk Isles, for re-provisioning of victuals and impromptu repairs. During that stopover eight fee paying passengers embarked. One subsequently disappeared overboard, a Babkhan crewmember was seen wearing the victims shoes on the next day – claimed to have found them. No further action was taken.
