Panel 1:
Frank!Árgon, sitting in the chair and with both hands crossed in front of his face. He's bleeding through his nose and eyes, and has a eerie green overlay over him.
Frank!Árgon: That means... Either the enemies of the empire are suddenly able to launch rockets...
Panel 2:
A shot of a vehicle crashed between the woods. It is broken, looks aerodynamic, and some of the painting on it seems to resemble eyes.
Frank!Árgon (off camera): Or that thing is NOT from Earth.

We see the face of the Augur whose feet were visible in the previous page. He's a tall, slender, red-haired man, covered in freckles and smoking. He's wearing a white toga and some sort of metalic leaf crown, to which the wires are connected.
Panel 2:
Same picture, but the Augur's expression is blank, as there is a green highlight and animation saying CONNECTING >>> CONNECTED.
Panel 3:
Mikhail, at the comcata machine: We're conneced to Árgon!

Five panels.
In the first one, Captain Nikita Kirchhoff holds his helmet under his arm, looking back,
Nikita: Connect the Augur. The Nocvic too.
Panel 2:
The soldier standing on the rock has a computer-like machine in front of him, which displays some information similar to an internet connection. The machine has a screen, several buttons and wires plugged in, and the words "RÉGULA II COMCATA" can be read on it. It's also covered in stickers of different colors.
Mikhail: We are online!
Panels 3, 4, 5:
A bunch of wires go from the machine Mikhail is fiddling with until they reach the feet of another figure, who is sitting on a chair placed over a white carpet. On the chair, the words "AUGURI" can be parsed.

Three panels.
Three soldiers can be seen in panel 1. They are heavily armored in a style that very vaguely reminds of roman armor, with helmets that completely cover their faces. One of them is standing on top of a big rock, while other is holding the Nocvic.
Aurik: Captain!
Panel 2:
The Captain takes off his helmet.
Panel 3:
The Captain took off his helmet, revealing the face of a young man. There are two more soldiers in the background, one of which has a different color to their uniform as to indicate a medical positon.
Aurik: I've got a visual on the debris; this is the correct location, sir.

The initial view is overlayed as seen through nightgogles. On the corner of the camera we can see the indication that it is recording, and date time information: April 15th, 508. 02:48 AM.
Someone holding nightgogles is looking at the crashing site. The gogles have the words "NOCVIC" painted on them.
