Commander, I have acquired a visual of several mining and trading vessels. The majority of the activity in this system is commercial in nature – resistance will be minimal.

However, I am obliged to remind you that the moral and ethical implications of such an act are not trivial. Perhaps there is another way for us to deal with this assignment?

Greetings, Independent! This is the Italus, one of the most prolific mining vessels this side of Ariannus! Are you looking to conduct business today, or is this merely a social call?

I’m sure you’re aware that a significant sum of our revenue is sourced from the slave trade. Well, it’s about time we replenish our stocks, and I think you’re the right one for the job.

There is a system in deep space by the name of Sotavi which is a hub of mining activity. The system is rife with traders and miners alike.

I want you to go there and retrieve the crew of a civilian mining vessel known as the Italus. Return them to us here immediately for processing and auction.

And go easy on them. Bandages and broken bones don’t command a high price in today’s market.

This is a message to all crew aboard the mining vessel Italus. You will stand down from your posts and prepare to be beamed aboard our ship for immediate processing.

Oh, so you’re nothing but a bandit with a fancy talking computer. Sorry to disappoint you, but you won’t be getting anything from us today. Don’t think we won’t go down without a fight.

What is the meaning of this, Initiate? Where are the slaves we sent you to acquire!?

You have our sincerest apologies, but I am afraid the crew did not survive the initial assault on the Italus.

Imbeciles, do you realise how much you’ve cost us!? I hope you realise you’re going to be making that cost back up to us.

We already have, Jaraz. We are currently transporting the entire cargo of the Italus to your stores. We were able to salvage their stocks at the conclusion of the battle.

Huh… you’re not as useless as you seem, Initiate. Very well, we’ll take this for now. But the next time I give you an order, you better follow it to the letter.

Thank you for joining us here. My calculations confirm that the probability of the Syndicate finding your crew here is minimal. You will need to remain here for a few weeks.

A few weeks? Well damn, it’s a good thing that the Italus has enough stock and resources on board to keep us going.

In order to discourage the Syndicate from further pursuing your crew, we will need to commandeer the majority of stocks and resources aboard the Italus.

We will use this as compensation to the Syndicate. There are enough supplies aboard the ship to do this and still leave you the bare amount to survive.

This just gets better by the moment. Fine, Independent. Do what you have to do. Just leave us enough so that we don’t starve. And… thanks for the warning. You really helped us out.

Allow my people aboard your ship to disembark and process the crew of the Italus. It will give us time to prepare your next assignment.

Please calm yourself, we have everything under control. If the Italus would care to accompany us to Sileo, we can instruct you further from there.
