Fields of Mauve

[ Stories ]

A Union vessel carrying top secret software crashed on Renorus in sector 13 -2. Because of the sensitive nature that sector has at the moment, due to the discussions between the Free Confederacy and the Union over territory, a team of jedi where sent to retrieve the software and the crew.

Once Nathan Miodrass Asillion and Nebesnogo Sveta arrived they quickly found the crashed Union vessel as well as another ship of unidentified origin. The Union vessel seemed mostly intact on the outside. It’s exit hatch was open and the ship seemed to be abandoned. To see if their objective was still on board Nebesnogo and Nathan entered the ship. Once inside Nathan checked the ship’s computer for any sign of the software and look for the crew, while Nebesnogo checked if the ship was still functional. They found out that the ship was no longer capable of space flight and that three unidentified individuals had captured the crew and had taken them at gunpoint. The software was not on board.

Following a set of tracks leading from the ship the two jedi arrived at an entrance tunnel to an underground base. Taking out some security cameras they descend down the tunnel and find a security station. By hacking the computer in the security station they find out there is activity in two areas, a bar and a maintenance room. Going further into the base the jedi soon find the bar.

Inside the bar a number of low lives and several members of the crew the jedi are looking for are being held at gunpoint by mercenaries. With the element of surprise on their side, Nathan and Nebesnogo swiftly kill the mercenaries. Finding out the present crew members do not have the software, Nathan goes to rescue the captain while Nebesnogo stays to keep an eye on the people in the bar. Killing two more mercenaries and knocking the mercenary leader unconscious, Nathan rescues the captain.

Returning to the bar the majority of the low lives are arrested. Nebesnogo and Nathan blow up the underground base and the ship to cover their tracks before finally returning to Unity with the captain giving up the data after having swallowed it, the rest of the crew and the low live prisoners including the mercenary leader.
