Dyson City Terrorist Attack

Oh no, I just read on GalNet that Dyson City in the Paresa System has been hit a Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army terrorist attack, and the station has suffered severe damage and needs to be evacuated. Fifteen thousand people have died.I remember back on Gehry Port, we'd run evacuation drills every Universal Time year, as a just-in-case worst-case scenario. I've never thought a station would ever suffer so much damage that it'd require a total evacuation, between the multiple redundancies and ability to seal off areas, and the fact that no one is crazy enough to do an attack on that scale. But the events of recent years have been unsettling, first with the Thargoid attacks and now the NMLA.
Having lived on a station for many years, my heart is really going out to those who are in the station. Everyone must be really scared and desperate; I just can't imagine the depths of such emotions the people there are going through now.
During previous attacks there was not much I could do. This time though, I am now a pilot and not some tech stuck on another station many light years away. I'm going to fit some passenger cabins in Cubeo's Giftand see if I can help with the evacuation. I know what I can do won't be a lot in comparison to the millions in a station, but I can't sit idly too. I just hope I'm not too late, and I can do a good enough job. I hear it's tricky in an evacuation operation...
