Omicron's Eternal saga (// The Order| story)

Mafdet's test drive has been successful. Our vessel headed regular patrol route in Omicron Mu system and everything been much better than I expected. To be truly honest, I was slighty nervous, when Mafdet undocked from Carthage.
What did I scare? I can't say to myself an exact: might be engines could not have worked or issues with navigation system or we could just forget important containers with food or medical supplies. Scared for nothing...Oh man, how shameful.
Anyway, ship has launched and slowly closed to anomaly which could bring us to Omicron Mu. Jumping through hyperspace...Yeah, we made it. Large green-gray cloud is everywhere, but long range scanners worked well. I gave an order to follow next waypoint headed on the north top of Wall of Seth and for entire hour vessel moved on cruise speed and then we moved closely to Nebet - a large gas giant with offencive thunderstorms and megacyclones.

That was really glorious. Miles, who is a Mafdet's new executive commander, even launched a camera drone to make footage.

Alright, I have a task is much important than to be quite nostalgic. I had meeting with strange pilot on civilian spacecraft, while I flew back from Dabadoru on my personal "Bastet", and his speech was literally weird. I couldn't understand what he meant, but when Neural Net loudly warned me "WARNING! INCOMING MISSILE", I realized he tries to engage me and best option is shaking him from my back. Under fire I warned Freeport 11's dispatchers about hostilities, but before reinforcement arrive to assist, I managed to blow up a fighter by series of mines. Everything was usual, except one small detail - ship, that attacked me, hadn't pilot's body inside cockpit. Without paying enough attention to this, I had launched cruise engines and returned to the original route.
Closing to Palau cloud, scanners recorded strange movements directly between the spot near jumphole to Omicron Minor and planet Nauru has been held by The Core. Unfortunately, I falied in following contacts, because they hid almost instantly and everything I could find out is transport, affiliated to Deep Space Engineering. What the hell are they doing so far from Liberty and their borders?

"Agent Drake, this is Storgen. I need you and Mafdet in Delta, because we have unwelcomed company and I ask you to watch and gather information about everything you can find out"
