Mission briefing

The transformation is nearly complete. We are on the road to a new future, the fourth stage of humanity. And it will start with the Guristas. You have Lt. Kipo, yes? You will deliver him to Cilis. I have let her know that you are en route. Kori may show up, and if he does, I apologize. He has rejected the future and continues to stumble in this aimless void. I forgot one thing. In exchange for the return of Foxfire, Cilis has promised to give me a special holoreel. This holoreel is very important to my development, and it must be returned to me. Drop Kipo off at the Cilis's headquarters, and then get the holoreel.

Your agent Irchi has added few extra organs to Kipo “Foxfire” Tekiras body making him an walking bomb. Your job is to deliver him to the enemy so that their station can be blown up and you get access to the deadspace complex.

Bliz: Drop Kipo “Foxfire” Tekiras to the structure in first room. Kill triggers in second room, blow up the storage. Grab mission item and return to agent.

Room 1

The initial guards are friendly unless fired upon. After dropping of Kipo “Foxfire” Tekira at the Cilis Leglise‟s Headquarters structure the acceleration gate to the next stage will appear. This acceleration gate is not locked. Moments after the agent message the Cilis Leglise‟s Headquarters structure will explode, all guards will disappear, this triggers spawning of reinforcement wave which are hostile ships. The gate to next rom is not locked. The ships in this room do not need to be killed.

Mission briefing

Cilis must have told you that I was crazy. That might be true; who am I to say? You can judge for yourself, but remember what you have experienced here. I have mastered my transformation; I am now perfect. Can't you tell? Don't you understand? This bickering among us, between Cilis and Kori and me, must come to an end. If they want to achieve my level of humanity, then this bickering must end, the feuds must stop, and they must trust in their fellow pirate. That is what I hoped to achieve with Lt. Kipo: He was the impetus for change. He accepted his mind, rejected his body, and willfully sacrificed himself for the betterment of the Guristas, and humanity. The holoreel was a reminder of my life before this incarnation, when social interactions, my body, my loved ones were important to me. A memento mori of a forsaken existence. Thank you; it was the final piece to true understanding. I doubt that my efforts were successful today. Cilis and Kori will most likely maintain their blood feud, their bitter struggle for supremacy in this meaningless void. I will not relent, however: As long as they continue down that path, I will be there to usher them into a new beginning, the perfect world, and the true way. This will never end until our bodies wither and our minds burn with truth. Thank you for your services, capsuleer. I know how you demigods value material possessions, so please accept this gift. You have been immeasurably helpful in assisting the Guristas. I hope we may cross paths again in the future. If you ever want to achieve enlightenment, please come find me again.
