Mission briefing

You don't say! Well, yes, in fact, I do have something I could use you for. You've heard of the "Athran Brotherhood"? No? Well, that's no surprise, really. They're little more than a nuisance, and few in number. But they can be a pain at times. And we're pretty sure there's a chapter of them hereabouts. But we don't know where they're hiding out. That's what I want you to find out for me, actually. There's a small station built into an old asteroid near here. Used to be a mining outpost till they hollowed the thing out. It's been abandoned for a few years now, but some rumors of activity in that area have been surfacing. I need you to go check those rumors out and let me know what you find. Seem like something you'd be interested in? The Athran Brotherhood Sometimes calling itself "The Scions of Athra," the Athran Brotherhood is a group of Khanid secessionists with headquarters located on the Khanid homeworld of Amarr Prime (called Athra in the Old Khanid tongue). This group tends to rise perhaps every other generation or so, seemingly from its own ashes, making trouble for local government and interstellar trade alike. Given the many large pirate organizations and other independent "freebooters" of New Eden, not to mention the constant weight of intergalactic politics and the ongoing "Minmatar Problem," Amarr rulers cannot generally spare a large-scale military effort to deal with these relatively minor troublemakers. Perhaps this is the reason the Brotherhood seems never to die, but always reappears just when authorities start to think they've rid themselves of the nuisance.

Single pocket without gate.

Tips:

• Approach the mission objective (Abandoned Mining Station). Make it visible in the overview by enabling 'Types - Celestial - Large Collidable Object'.
  
• The Station is 40km away from warp-in. The mission is flagged as complete when within 5km of the station.
  

First Pocket, 20-30km, spawn when you are within 10km of the station
