Pirate Cove

21st December 2017

The Pirate Cove is an hidden Unauthorised Installation that can be found in the Kemurukamar system, in the ring of body A 1. I can be found by looking for the “Blazin’ Dynamo” POI, where there is a damaged Bowman-class Researcher, the Blazin’ Dynamo. It has a Ship Log Uplink:

Virusalani Control,
The Blazin’ Dynamo has been boarded by pirates and is in the Kemurukamar starsystem.
I’ve evaded their base defences and connected to the data port near the bridge.
A package designated simply as “Eli” has downloaded itself into my ship’s auxiliary storage.
It almost leapt onboard!
I’m returning it back to base.

Once you scan the Ship Log Uplink a duplicate Blazin’ Dynamo will appear in the Nav Panel.

The Pirate Cove was added for a section of the 2017 24 hour charity livestream as part of a segment where Dav followed clues, and is not known to have another purpose. There are ships that will scan you, and a Nav Beacon you can scan.

A listening post related to the Blazin’ Dynamo can be found in the HIP 21595 system, around body 1.

Up on entering the instance, a few Pirates will starting attacking, and after approx. 1 minute 30 seconds, a wing of 5 ship will jump in. The wing will consist of 4 Diamondback Scout’s, and 1 Diamondback Explorer which is piloted by a Gould Gang Member.

After scanning the Listening post, you will receive 3 messages:

AUTOMATIC ALERT FROM LONG RANGE VESSEL BLAZIN’ DYNAMO
+++ Automatic alert from Long Range vessel Blazin’ Dynamo +++
+++ Triggered by significant variance between route plan and helm instructions +++
+++ Playing last known bridge records +++

What are you doing up here Jo? Shouldn’t you be helping engineering repair the main drives?
Get away from me with that plasma torch, you could hurt somebody with that thing!

+++ Signal interrupted +++

This is JB.
The bridge is secured, you can switch the drives on again now.
Setting a course to the gas giant rendezvous in Kemurukamar, then heading straight for the Cove

DEAR JOHN
Dear John,
I’m really sorry. I tried to make this work long distance, I really did. But it’s just so many light years away that I can’t take it any more. There’s this chap working in dispatch. But you don’t want to hear about that just now.
Be safe.
Ernest.
