While dealing with a rather large spurt of discord amongst our Secondary Fleet, an unfamiliar transponder signature appeared . Upon closer inspection, I found that it was apparently a Freelancer's bomber craft. When I inquired about his intent within the system, he claimed that he was mapping out Alpha.
Naturally, I was concerned.
When I asked of his origin, he quite bluntly stated that he was Libertonian. Fearing that he could be under charter of one of our many enemies within that House, I asked for him to provide solid proof that his allegiances were not in conflict with the Maltese Nation. He could produce no such affirmation
Under threat of lethal action, I advised him to link up with our so-called "Bounty Board", to prove to us that he was willing to assist us, under which circumstances I believe we could trust him with cursory data on Alpha.
If he fails to take it upon himself to assist us, or does not otherwise provide proof that he can be trusted to some extent...well, upon my next encounter with him, I will make sure that his collected data is lost. For good.
