A women in a black cloak appears on the screen, with a deep smoky voice she starts talking
Good evening ladies and gents‘, whoever is receiving this. Let me introduce myself. My name is Mara Jade and I am contacting you, because I’m interested in joining your ranks. I am impressed by your mission and your will to succeed in this more than hostile environment.
But let me tell you my story, maybe my intentions become clearer then.
Omicron Theta has always been a battleground for the Outcasts and the Corsairs. My people lived in this battleground, afraid from their unbalanced neighbors, powerless to resist them. My home Freeport 9 kept fueling the war by allowing these Outcasts and Corsairs to dock, giving their warriors a safe haven, where they can refuel and buy ammo to kill each other, pirate and enslave innocents, just a few clicks away. I mean, as if they would have a choice to refuse them above mentioned goods. Also Zoners must stay neutral they said, no Zoner will be harmed.
She presses out forced laugher to underline the irony in this kind of politics.
So must they, will they really never be harmed?! My Father lost both legs, by “accident”. Asteroids, as if. He states that every time he gets asked, how such a cruel injury could happen to him. Even me, he never told the truth. But there were the damage of gunfire on his freighter when he returned with all of his crew dead and him being injured dangerous to life.
I myself decided to join the Zoner escort and defense forces by that time. I learned flying a fighter and keeping harm away from Zoner transport ships. But my experiences during this time in space made me sad and angry at the same moment. All scum of Sirius, Outcasts, Corsairs, Hessians and Coalition forces killing each other, pirating and enslaving innocents, just a few clicks away from me and I was forced to stay neutral, to keep calm, to let them proceed, ‘cause this is none of Zoners business.
I can no longer live this life of reservation and pretending being neutral. I want to act. Act against all this unrighteousness. The only way to do this is to stop useless killing.
I heard rumors about your organization, about fighting for a peaceful and better world and so I started to look for you. After endless hours of I found an old pilot who told me a story about a station called “Safe Haven” in the “Cayman System”…It’s the only evidence I have for your existence, tales of an old drunken pilot. He meant to remind that he found the jumphole leading to “Safe Haven” is located in Omega 49. I was there very often, escorting transports from and to planet Gran Canaria but I never heard of it before.
