I'll take that as a "Time To Start"

Passans had a reputation for ruthless conquest. With their intimidatingly large territory and persistence in battle, they had displaced or driven to extinction many races and ecosystems. And yet, they appeared to completely ignore or even avoid machine races, despite the clear advantage they might gain from stealing such advanced technology. Maybe they preferred to focus on resources they could eat, maybe they thought they wouldn't benefit from conquering machine worlds, or maybe they were afraid of robot apocalypse. Whatever the case may be, the Passans rarely even came close to the borders of Netra-Dax Chronicler space, let alone enter it.

So imagine what a surprise it must be, then, that a small lone Passan vessel would approach, seemingly intentionally, at a trajectory vaguely pointed towards the heart of Chronicler territory.
