RE: Europan Vex Activity

Skirmishes are common in the noted sectors. Neither side seems committed to territorial expansion.

I'm reluctant to report that I had another sighting in the glacial cave near Cadmus Ridge. This time, I managed to get a good look at the creature with my rangefinder. The body was unmistakably that of a Hive Knight, while the helmet (or head?) appeared to be that of a… pumpkin.

The pumpkin appeared to have a face carved into it. Three eyes and a big smiling mouth. With… flames shooting out.

Bright. Purple. Flames.

I know how that sounds, so I'm submitting myself to [REDACTED] for a full psychological battery. I've instructed her to alert Ikora Rey of the results, whatever the outcome.
