Kidnapped!

"As you enter the room, you receive a weak transmission; a hushed voice sneaks through your audio system, hastily whispering some words. All you can understand is something about kidnapping, pirates and a group of people. You play it back a several times, trying to make sense of it, but you can not discern who is kidnapped or how this group of people is involved and you cant actually hear what part the Guristas play in this, even though you take it for granted that they are the kidnappers in question. This message was sent on a general channel and your instruments have no problem pinpointing its origin. They have actually done so already in case you would like to investigate this further. Cant beat these new auto-personalizing AI systems, you have had this one for only a few days and it already feels like it has known you all your life."
