Case notes, dated sixth of November, 819 A.S.
Today was somewhat more successful than just waiting for Serena to dig something up. I took my ship out to the Omicron Zeta and... Omicron Minor systems. I got the information out of a Zoner trader last night- all for the cost of a Sidewinder Fang (Personal note: Finally found somewhere that doesn't put Liberty Ale in it!)
So, this morning, I headed out to Zeta. I saw a group of Order weapon platforms guarding the hole (see attached file, marked screen2-1), but they didn't respond to my presence.
In the system itself, there's three planets and some asteroid fields, as well as two large outcroppings of the Edge Nebula (see files marked screen4 and screen5). Inside one of the nebulae is the jump hole to Omicron Minor (see file marked screen7-3), a place I don't particularly want to see again.
Omicron Minor consists of a large segment of the Edge Nebula, with a clearing at the centre. Inside the clearing is a graveyard. Fragments of a planet, identified by the nav-map as Toledo, with what's left of the planet itself right in the middle (see file marked screen8-3). I also noticed a large number of wrecks among the fragments, all of them fighters. Some belonged to the Bounty Hunters Guild Core (see file marked screen9-1) and others belonged to the Order (see file marked 10-1). I also noticed strange energy signals coming from the planetary fragments.
I could not stay in the system long, so I headed back to Freeport 11.
After entering Omicron Delta, I was attacked by three Nomad fighters, but a squadron of Bounty Hunters showed up in time to chase them off (see file marked 12-3).
Also, I noticed that the Order weapon platforms engaged the Bounty Hunter ships. Could it have something to do with what happened in Omicron Minor?
Not long after I returned to the Freeport, I saw a fight between a Bounty Hunter and a man dressed in a black uniform of some description. Possibly an Order agent? Note: investigate hostilities between Order and Bounty Hunters.
Serena still hasn't gotten back to me. I'll keep an eye out.
