Probe 1323 - Human Codename 'Crona'

Your last report was troubling.

Not only was it unusually late, it made no mention of the Delayer at all.

(Despite our EXPLICIT REQUEST for clarification on his elimination).

What is more, we noticed several troubling trends:

-You clearly give reference to 'farm', a human compound built to house and feed lesser beings for later consumption. No 'farm' should be in the general vicinity (relatively speaking) of your proscribed search area, of this we have made sure.

-You describe, in aggravatingly elaborate detail, the physical structure of the organism known as 'pig'. We are not fascinated by the similarity of the creature's nostrils to the wall-mounted mechanisms humans use to power their crude electrical devices, and we are certainly NOT amused by the way 'the tail springs back into a delightful curly shape no matter how many times it is straightened'. The fervent use of exclamation points was also highly unnecessary.

-Most worrisome however, is your noted altercation with the drowning 'piglet'. Not only did you not content yourself to merely observe the natural and right order of life, you saw fit to INTERCEDE on the vermin's behalf. Furthermore, the way you describe the beast after rescuing it is utterly alarming. You use the description 'tender' and 'helpless', not, we gravely note, in a detached sense, but as a TERM OF ENDEARMENT.

Conclusion: Probe 1323, you are hereby recalled to the Body for submission. You have been separated from us far too long for your own good. Probe 1322 and Probe 1324 will be arriving shortly to enforce compliance. You need not fear punishment, this situation is far from unheard of, but we expect TIMELY confirmation of this order, preferably without mention of 'pig'.
