It has been two years since the unthinkable happened. During the Pulse, Iejima Station almost suffered a destabilization in its reactor core. Luckily, I was onboard the station when it happened, and I managed to stabilize it with the help of other crew posted within the station, preventing a more severe consequence that may have set us back considerably. Unfortunately, this meant that the station wasn't usable for years to come, made complicated by the increased presence of both Corsair and Outcast raiders and the depletion of Helium-3 reserves within the Sigma-59 gas clouds.
During this two-year period, we reached out to our most trusted partner, Kishiro Technologies, to assist in the relocation and repair of Iejima Station, after the discovery of vast, untapped reserves of Helium-3 within the far reaches of the Sigma-13 system, formerly concealed by explosive gas pockets. After completing the relocation several months ago, the station's repair work went smoothly, aside from few minor incidents where hostile forces, repelled by our paramilitary, tried to attack us. The biggest achievement is, however, the construction of an additional refinery module, which allows Iejima Station to convert processed Helium-3 into H-Fuel. This has allowed the Gas Miners Guild to reap huge profits, thanks to the surge in buyers from all across Sirius.
As a result of increased demand, the Karaji Maru has been formally redeployed to provide a continuous stream of Helium-3 to Iejima Station, in the hopes that the supply can match the demand from other buyers. But not all is well though, due to constant hostile activity that our paramilitary has had to repel a countless amount of times. Still, the Gas Miners Guild continues to prosper in times of adversity, and we hope this is the case for years to come.
