Today there was an incident involving an indie Gaian, right outside Kensington!
As Mr.Roseman, Mr.McIntyre and myself were about to depart on a trading run, we were chased by a pirate by the name of Sinn_Fein.
He demanded "a little tax" but was unable to enforce that request before we went through a lane.
Due to panic and temporary lack of directional sense, our convoy was split up.
Myself and one of the other transport vessels headed back to our friend who was being followed by the lone pirate.
Luckily, both transports were able to dock at a nearby station before the pirate reached them.
He continued to ask for tax as he approached the station, but when he saw that i was not docked, he instantly greeted me with a torpedo!
I engaged.
Soon after the fight began, either Mr.Roseman or Mr.McIntyre(i don't remember which) undocked to try and negotiate in order to prevent any death. Unfortunately Sinn_Fein continued the attack and fired upon the transport vessel which was about to ask for peace.
We had no choice but to destroy the pirate's ship.
I felt it was necessary to report this, as it was right outside HQ.
Hopefully this will not happen again.
