It's me again. For a long time I did not take notes due to my long absence from the Sobek system, as well as some other things, but about everything in order.
We recently supplied Spark with several new shipments of expensive minerals, for which he provided a generous reward. In the neighboring system, we made a temporary deployment point, because we found another place where you can get a lot of useful raw materials. Also in the same system, my men defended several giant ships that were heading for the Harma system. We took the hijackers by surprise - we released "Pretoria". This colossus blew their pelvis in no time, for it has powerful plasma accelerators, as well as Guardian technology - Te'O helped us with this by sharing his knowledge.
The second piece of news is even more important. It seems to me that they are beginning to follow us. We were convinced of this when we found a spy recorder at a station in the Ngale system. Most likely this is a gift from the pirates who tried to recapture the frozen Guardian from us. In view of this incident, as well as the squadrons circling around the system, we decided that we would not be able to keep Te'O in the Bubble for long. We have a plan to save the alien. The basic plan is that we, at our own risk, must transport the creature into the Colonia system. It won't be easy, but this plan has several advantages. First, Colonia is the safest and most distant place where people live. Secondly, we will go on a journey together with other traders as part of, roughly speaking, an inter-faction convoy - "Bees" from Alcala Settlement and people from "Magnus" will help us.I did not say anything about the detailed contents of the cargo, I only mentioned that we would be carrying mountains of jewels from LTT 3572. Thirdly, along the way we will scan all systems and, as soon as we collect a lot of data, we will sell them to the Colonians for a huge amount. Fourth, communication between the Bubble and the Colonia has recently been established, in some systems mobile bases have been deployed in the form of giant ships.
But the mission also has risks. Although we will lead the convoy, in no case should allies be allowed on the ship with the alien. There is also the likelihood of an attack by sedentary pirate groups near the Bubble border, before we enter dead space. If a hostile faction is armed against us, then we will be forced to cancel the mission, disband the convoy and fly to the ancient ship that was recently stuck in Oochost PC-C c29-0. We will give the alien to the local aborigines, who are actively collecting knowledge, and then they will fly away in an unknown direction.
I am sure that we will succeed. If there is success, then we will achieve even more wealth and will be able to afford a mobile base. Brokers agreed with the shipyard in advance and together with them we came up with a name for the future house - "Tutankhamun".
With God, comrades!
