Hello Bowex analysts!

Here is the report from your favourite ExSec, Miranda O'Neal.

While waiting for Durham to enter Omega-3, there were three pirates loitering around the Freeport 1. Frankly I have only basic knowledge about the Zoner laws, I'm not sure if loitering is forbidden for their kind. Anyway I stayed around keep a close eye on them. At some point they demanded 1 million credits each which was of course absurd considering I was just next to Freeport 1.

So they abandoned the extortion and one of them found safe refuge to Palmer Research Station. I follow her and soon afterwards her lackeys came to Palmer demanding money again and pointing out that I am no longer inside the No Fire Zone. So they attacked my ship while they activated the station's shields. Since I was alone, without backup, I successfully fled and waited for ExSec reinforcements.

By the time one more ExSec arrived, the pirates were gone. We successfully escorted Durham to Cambridge while the pirate Blunderbuss engaged me while I was guarding Durham's rear. The fight was brief since the coward engaged his cloaking device when he ran out of shield batteries.
