Slaves!
02 Jul 2018Webster 962
Well here was a peculiar thing.I'm sat there, checking out the bulletin boards, looking for work, when I get offered a job as a sort of delivery agent.
A faction here in Daedalus, wanted to import 28 units of slaves. They never specified where from, nor did they indicate that it might be illegal.
All they cared about was that I got them in a tight time frame and that I might not have the right experience.
Experience?
Well, that was a red rag, so I took the mission!
So, I jump into my trusty Cobra, and head off to the nearby system of LHS 278, who just happen to be selling slaves.
Again, no warnings about legality, and they were being sold on the open commodities market.
So I fork out some credits, load em into the hold, and set course back to Sol.
Wait, what's this? A warning that I'm carrying illicit cargo?
Damn, so, I boost into the station well over the speed limit, keen not to get scanned, and touch down with my cargo, expecting to have to shift them via the black market; but no, I hand in the mission in the open, and no one bats an eyelid (well except for the rather annoyed slaves).
What a weird world we live in.
