Venom Extraction Camp Surveillance - Reserve Buffer Zone

Objective

Maintain sealed surveillance of an unpermitted bulk venom-extraction camp pending Council authorisation to act.

Summary

Helix strips wild colonies for pharmaceutical venom, destroying nest aggregations faster than they recover. Held at Restricted tier with the file sealed: MELISSA's embedded source inside the extraction camp makes any premature move a threat to the operation and the asset. Forager recon swarm maintained passive perimeter watch under sealed handling, NectarNet access logged need-to-know only. No field action taken pending two-key Council sign-off.

Operational Timeline

• T-10 dEmbedded source confirms camp coordinates and harvest cadence.
• T-3 dForager recon swarm establishes passive perimeter watch.
• T-0Nest-aggregation destruction documented; source protected above case.
• Day 5Sealed file updated; Council authorisation requested for action.

Findings

• Industrial-scale venom extraction observed killing foragers at the colony level.
• Destroyed wild nest aggregations within the protected reserve buffer.
• Genetic material consistent with patent-laundering taken from reserve stock.
