“Stranger, I bid you greetings in the name of the Tau. If you are reading this then you will have encountered one of our messenger drones and are therefore a spacefaring race. Soon you will see more evidence of us. This is no cause for alarm. When you encounter one of our ships or outposts then welcome it. I hope you will choose to share the culture, technology and protection of the Tau Empire. The one constant in the universe is change. The wise adapt.” Except of transcript from alien probe discovered in the Koath System 696.M41
