ExpandMission briefing

Pirates have set up a blockade near a hidden stargate in Ivar, and are swarming over any passersby, which are mostly merchants and civilians. Pirates tend to create these temporary blockades at ill-defended stargates, usually ones which have been set up by civilians and are not guarded by our forces. But we still have an obligation to protect the citizens of Odengsolf. Therefore I want you, <character name>, to fly to the stargate and eliminate the illegal blockade.
