The probe finds that this room must have been one of the ammo storages, as the room is scattered with shells and missile warheads. The submarine is not found, but a small (About 1m by 1m) spherical device is found.

ZendikaroftheWest The corvette scans the strange device for any potential threat signatures before taking it on board after it is deemed "clear".

They also scan the nearby shells and warheads, maybe they could be of some use for reasearch down the line. It takes them onboard as well once they are deemed "clear" too.

The wreckage seems to show signs that the explosion was in part controlled to ensure the ship could not be captured, or scavenged for anything of significant use.

The fleet make their way towards the station and open comms with the approaching frigates
//Incoming Transmission//
Hello, this is Yulia Davinsky from the Terran Citizens Union, we were on a mission to meet with your leaders, however as you may can see we were attacked on our way here, we were wondering if we could dock at the local station to tend to our wounded, do the last bits of light repairs to our ships and be granted to set up a meeting with your leaders or other diplomats. Thank you.

Jared The transmission goes through, they are given a green light to proceed and dick. As the possible lead ship comes closer, a docking ring extends from the station to connect the two together.

The device, as soon as it is brought onboard, opens, revealing a message capsule. Inside is a handwritten message, reading: I have brought you to this place to show you something. Look around you. This used to be a great warship, built by ancient peoples to fight in their wars. But what is it now? A wreck devoid of life and glory? A piece of scrap, left to rust in the ancient seas beyond the world? A civilisation is remembered not from its glories or successes, but from how it fell. We are all the same, whether you accept it or not. We were once great, but now we are but a shadow of the true power we once wielded. I hope we meet again. -Flakken
The shells are somewhat intact, however, whatever propellant inside of them has long since disintegrated, washed away by the "water" of this place.

The diplomatic cruiser moves forwards and docks with the station. Once docked the team enters the air lock and wait for the doors to open.

Jared The airlock depressurizes and regulates the rest of the air within the station. The diplomatic crew are met by two personnel in fatigues who politely escort them to the recently strung together diplomatic meeting.

The shells can still be considered useful, despite the "washed away" propellant. The alien metals and materials will be a great study for materials groups within the military.

The crew are baffled as to who had written the message. This Flakken character has no data records at all and even more puzzling was that the message was written in English.

Life in the United Earth Government continues on. New leadership provides hope to its citizens with democracy, trade, industry, and protection from the unkown. Great colonial expansions continues on with new systems such as Rosetta, Gaberiel, and Cardoba being settled, adding to the great territory of the United Earth.

Only time will tell what happens next in the story of this United Earth and her people.

Suddenly, another message is shown.
This capsule has a single use dimension drive that will allow you to get home. I recommend you you use it, as the ocean is not empty of creatures that will harm you. I wish you luck.
After the message is shown, a small object pops out of the capsule. It is an odd, datajack like thing, meant ot be inserted into a computer terminal.

ONI

ZendikaroftheWest What creatures… the crew are puzzled. Based on the vast information of secretes they have based on their job, they have never heard of creatures living inside another dimension like this.

not even [Redacted] records show that anything lived within hyperspace or whatever you want to call it.

They insert the device safely, after they throughly investigate and confide that it is safe.

After installation of the device, the prowler's engines suddenly flare to life, and a rift begins forming above it. As the prowler enters the rift, a low, booming hum can be heard. Once they have entered the rift, they exit at the same location they entered, close to the disabled station. As the rift closes, the device burns away, leaving no trace of what brought them back.
