This is a set of locations that tell a short story. It begins in Halbangaay with a Listening Post around 3 A.

When scanned the Listening Post transmits the following message:

***Unauthorised Signal Detected***

Matching Signals Detected: Kachirigin

This is it – I’ve reached my limit. ..

I’ve been with these pirates for too long now and it’s time for me to leave. I know they won’t let me go willingly, I’m too important to them. As well as joining in on raids I’ve – become the de facto bookkeeper, and that makes me invaluable. They’d rather kill me than let me leave.

But I have to go, and not just because this is a dangerous way to live. There’s no other way to say this, but I’ve fallen in love. Erin is the best thing that’s ever happened to me. It’s just my dumb luck that she also happens to be the daughter of our eponymous leader, Norman. If he found out I know I’d be dead — bookkeeper or not. It’s risky but I have to make a plan the raid on the Welcome Deviation will be my last. We have to get away from here.

…Signal Disconnected at Source.

The signal leads to Kachirigin where the Megaship Welcome Deviation can be found. It has been attacked, and there are various cargo found in the area. Scanning the ship with the Datalink scanner reveals three Uplinks (these are not labelled), and these in turn can be scanned to give more messages:

A WAY OUT 1/3

I’m on a cargo ship. It’s called the Welcome Deviation, I think. Just another in a long list of vessels this gang has ransacked, but I’m determined this will be my last. I’m going to make my move soon. Just need the right opportunity.

A WAY OUT 2/3

I’ve managed to hide some of the loot on this ship. I’ll be back to pick up the stash when the rest of the gang have left, then with any luck Erin and I will be halfway across the galaxy before anyone realises we’ve gone.

A WAY OUT 3/3

I’ve managed to pick up the loot. Now I’m taking off…
literally. I‘m going to rendezvous with Erin in the Gaura
system. I can only hope Norman doesn’t try and come
after us.

Again these messages lead to another system – travelling to Guara there is a Scientific Installation Relay Station JE-6060 can be found near Guara 4. This appears to be the end of the trail.
