\Universal/-Nelson - Mission Report #1 - Learning by Example and First Steps

Today we took our Bison transport out on the road, linking up with a fellow faction vessel on a Liberty Ale run from Planet Manhattan to Minato Harbor, in Tau-44. The pay on this particular run is quite good, and we will likely see it as a standard contract route for at least the near future.

Upon completion of this first segment, there was word that Kyushu Rice was needed at the newly rebuilt Makassar Station in Tau-23. Our vessel loaded up with product and we headed on our way out to the jumphole, which ended up near the station in Tau-23. The goods were accepted from the station, and their staff offered to contact a miner from IMG to obtain some Niobium Ore for the run to Pueblo Station, which would round out our route nicely. We accepted this offer and headed out to the mining area.

The miner arrived on instruction from the station and proceeded to provide us the ore for delivery. We went back to Makassar to check in and confirm our delivery destination, but noted some strange readings onroute, and received a communication by a pirate IFF craft by the shipname Legionary. We initially ignored the com, thinking they would move on, but the readings resumed as we continued onward toward the jump gate to Tau-31.

This pirate again proceeded to contact us in Tau-31 but not until reaching Holman Outpost, which promptly began to open fire with everything they had. For some reason this pirate wasn't yet making threats or demands, but just looked to discuss some matters, and promised to not harm our vessel or deny passage past our conversation. To facilitate this along, we decided to keep moving on the route towards Freeport 6 in Tau-29, where he could have his discussion without the fear of destruction. Maybe a poor choice on our part, but the request was sincere and it did appear he was ready to wait us out if we held out on Holman.

After a long conversation with the pirate regarding his many possible explanations for wanting to speak with us, it finally came down to the ask: 2 Million credits was granted and they docked at the Freeport.

Our next system on the run was Kyushu in Kusari space. We approaches the very first trade lane ring when a Golden Chrysanthemums vessel appearred and began to ask us questions about Gaian Wildlife. It seems they have an interest in having these animals delivered...

It wasn't long though before our conversation was interrupted, first by the pirate from earlier returning to traverse the area, and then by Kusari Naval Forces, coming to check the security of the area, then more Golden Chrysanthemums! There was even a brief appearance from the Crayter Republic! In the end, though, we were allowed to proceed without any further compensation required.

In New Toyko, we ran across one more vessel, another Kusari Naval forces ship on its way to Kyushu to intercept the GC forces there. As per corporate policy, we advised them of the GC presence.

From that point onward, it was uneventful through Shikoku, Kepler, and finally Colorado, where we sold the Niobium Ore and took some down time after what was a very, very, busy route!
