Intrigue in Wirnako
27 Aug 2021Iridium Nova
Over the past few weeks I've managed to build a bit of a hero myth in the Wirnako system. With a combination of selfless acts, heroic rescues, crime fighting, and some high profile missioning, along with the necessary greased palm or two, I've got the locals all abuzz about the Angel of Aisling who heard their prayers and came to save them. Of course, it's all narrative carefully circulated around by a few cheap lackeys, but it doesn't take much for people under the gun to believe that the thing that took that gun away and gave them a chance to find a better life to believe that they were saved by a big damn hero.All of this is designed to convince the stingy nerds who are in charge of doling out prismatic shields that maybe I should be on their list. But it has a nice little side effect. As the representative for the Angel of Wirnako, I get to enjoy certain benefits in the system. With Harma just a jump away, I've managed to secure myself a cozy little hideaway right in the heart of Kumo Crew space. Real estate is all about location, location, location, so they say, but so is the spy game.
I'm not quite done here yet, but I've got a good start and a solid foundation to build on. Soon, I expect Archon Delaine to take an interest, and when he does we'll have an interesting little chat I'm sure.
