The Dig

[Aazalot]

Within Vonclouds office at the Pygar Administration building

"So let me get this straight, someone has found something, but we don't know who it is or what it is they have found?"

Voncloud looked towards the administrator who nodded slowly confirming his statement.

"And the only information we are getting, is from hearsay, drunkards and gossip?"

Once more the administrator nodded, shuffling nervously.

Voncloud adjusted his glasses then stood up, pacing over to a window. The window peered into the main Pygar settlement. The first that was built it became the central landing port after the docking rings had been built and saw the largest share of traffic for the planet. Naturally it would become the focal point for much of the information surrounding Pygar and any news from the Omicrons. Voncloud had known about the Relics found under the planets surface in the past, even when the first parts of the Colony were being built he hadn't planned on stopping those who wanted to dig. The truth was, the Relics and digging had slipped his mind entirely, after all there were more pressing matters he had to attend to such as making Pygar Self sufficient, creating a working Militia along side the NCC during the Conflict, the Freeport 9 mess. In general the digging for relics was relegated to a team of Administrators who would manage permits and vet researchers who wished to search for these relics. One such administrator was stood in the office.
Crossing his arms Voncloud addresses them once more.

"It can't be ignored that there is a 'Buzz' in the atmosphere surrounding this apparent discovery. There's more substance behind this then just some Drunkards tale. I want you and your team to see if there is anyone who had requested a permit lately who might be our man, and if you do, bring them to me."

The Administrator shuffled nervously once more before doing their best to clear their throat "Sir, Though me and my team will endeavour to find this person, I'm afraid to say that there are many who come to Pygar and dig. Without ever contacting us. There is a good chance this may be one such person."

Voncloud nodded keeping his gaze out of the window "Of course, I am not naïve to think that everyone coming to dig were just researchers. There are credits to be made with these sorts of items and many willing to exploit it for their own gain. Its just the way of things. As such I will be tasking a few of the Militia to begin searching for this individual so they and I can have a chat."

The Administrator nods their head "Yes Sir. I will get my team working on looking through our records now" They turn and take their leave leaving Voncloud to his thoughts.

He sighs whilst he watch's the hustle and bustle of the settlement, he mused a moment realising it yet had an actual name but his amusement faded quickly as he dwelled on the current matter. If someone had managed to find a Xeno Relic the consequences for Pygar could be dire, drawing a whole new target upon the planet. His people had still yet to recover from the shadow of potential war with the Corsair's and the battle of Freeport 9. To potentially have the threat of Nomads and their followers may be the breaking point. He had to find this person and their discovery First"
