A secret Gallente outpost nearby just suffered a catastrophic overload in its main power core. The resulting explosion obliterated the outpost. The Gallente navy is on its way there to look for survivors.

We don't care about the Gallente civilians, but we do care about the massive amount of sensitive information that might be stored in the remnants of the outpost's central information core. That outpost was a communications hub routing vast amounts of data back into Gallente space. There's no telling what secrets we could uncover with that information core.

We want you to go to the remnants of the outpost and sift through the debris until you find that central data core. Just pick it up and bring it back.

This might sound easy, except that the Gallente Navy is already en route to the location. They likely won't be looking for the core themselves; they'll be picking up survivors. However, intelligence reports say that the rescue fleet is large, and they might not react favorably to Amarr vessels nosing around in the face of their tragedy.
