Topic:Mission Report > Cleaning Sirius, Artifacts Found
So, I have gone to Liberty yesterday, with newly promoted Commander Lena Riemann. We were noticed by a few authorities, and they sure caused some trouble along the way. Nevertheless, we got into Liberty. We were spotted there by a large group of soldiers and law enforcers of this.. corrupt hellhole, and we were forced to split up. Afraid of what may happen next, I fled the scene to hide inside a debris field, turned of all comms and electronics, and stayed there, concealed in the debris, until things got calmer.
Didn't take long, and I moved to the 'California' system through Texas, where I've met a junker in a rusty old salvage vessel. Probably out of fear or out of another reason, the junker did not respond to me, at all. Thing is, the vessel was full of the vicious substance known as Cardamine. Such filth is dangerous to the ordinary people of Liberty! I demanded that they drop the trash, but they were still absent. Thus, forcibly, I separated the rusty vehicle apart, and destroyed the putrid orange mess. Some of the crew of this vessel made it to the escape pods, and some were floating around, decompressed. It was a necessary sacrifice. Those who made it to the escape pods were brought close to the nearest junker station, and left there for their friends to rescue them. Maybe the crew will understand the message: "Do not do this again, or else..."
Then, I've done a little fly-by in Pennsylvania, to see if I could get into contact with some local working people in the nebula. However, there was no contact. I was hit by an ion storm shortly after, and I'm thankful my ship survived it.. Maybe it's not so bad in nebulas? Not as strong? Either way, after the ship's systems came back online, I have left for home. On the way back through the Kansas system, I have noticed an installation near Planet Topeka. America Freeport, belonging to "The Commonwealth". It opened fire upon me without question, and it appears they had another installation close by, unknown purpose, but sensors identified it as a for of a communication satellite. Apparently, they were civilians under the rule of the "Hellfire Legion". The same group I have found a large capital ship off, very early on in my service. I dodged the incoming fire, and went onward. Turns out, their aim was incredibly poor, as they managed to shoot up their own satellite with the barrage that was meant for me. Fools.
Close to home, in the Omega-5 System, I outfitted my ship with the efficient engines our Hessian allies have developed recently, and I met a freelancer. Checking him out, I found out he had twenty Hessian pilots aboard, and also something quite peculiar: 'Alien Artifacts'. I believe this freelancer is a mere explorer. He appeared friendly, promised to drop off the pilots at the nearest Hessian base, and even proceeded to drop the artifacts before I even had the chance to demand such! It amazed me. This freelancer really knew what to do for the greater good of all of us. Needless to say, the odd looking artifacts were dropped of at Mykolaiv for research.
One note, the ship's log was.. unfortunately corrupted due to the ion storm. I've managed to recover some of the data, but there's a small bit missing. A bit about me trying to find those Pennsylvanian comrades. Not much is missing, just me singing the anthem, some swearing, and a conversation with another freelancer I have met, which only said hello to me, nothing else.

[16.04.2017 06:41:38] SCRA|Pyotr.Ledovskoy: Oh Junker, are you playing dead?
[16.04.2017 06:43:38] SCRA|Pyotr.Ledovskoy: Alright, Junkie. Playing dead will not help.
[16.04.2017 06:43:59] SCRA|Pyotr.Ledovskoy: But hey, I can help you become dead, if that is what you want to be pretending.
[16.04.2017 06:44:30] SCRA|Pyotr.Ledovskoy: Sorry mate, but I just can't let you haul this anywhere. It hurts the people of Sirius.
