Mission briefing
I have a hunch that Kori's our spy. I've been monitoring his transmissions to you in the field, and I'm very sure that he's working with the Navy.

He won't be willing to work with you directly right now. I've arranged for you to meet with one of his operatives, Eroma Eralen. You'll meet him in a deadspace pocket at these coordinates. Be careful, though: Eroma is renowned for his technological ability. He's not good at anything else, but he sure does know his way around illegal pirate tech, especially wavelength and frequency modulation. Meet with him and see what he knows. He owes me a favor, anyway.

Gated deadspace pocket up to eights jumps away. Your task is to play a game for Eroma Eralen. Follow their instructions to complete the Mission.

Blitz: approach the Guristas Warehouse, destroy the Cruiser Pithoriate, repeat three time. Finally, destroy the 4th Guristas Warehouse and approach Eroma Eralen.

Complete the Mission remotely.

Tips:

  • Get within 4 km of the first Guristas Warehouse to spawn enemies
  • When you destroy the Pithoriate Cruiser, the Pithoriate Frigates warp out

Kori said you'd meet me here. He didn't say what this was about, or what you wanted from him, but here I am… somewhere. If you really want to speak with me, you'll have to play my game. I hear that you're a good pilot, but we'll see about that. Fly to that warehouse. Oh yeah, and don't mind those satellites.

You're good at following orders, just like Kori said you'd be. What a good, little capsuleer.


Did you ever wonder why Kori told you to spare the Navy? We pirates don't have much mercy, right? Well, you're not the only one who can follow orders. Some of us have bigger agendas than we let on.


Oh look! More things for you to blow up. Go ahead, egger. Do what you do best: wanton destruction.

Encrypted Transmission
Kori wants you to work for him again. He sees you as a valuable tool, and he'd rather have you work for him than with Cillis. She's dangerous, ambitious, and powerful; she's rising the ranks, and she will use any means to do so. Cilis has dirt on Kori, and Kori wants out. You've been a pawn in their game. I hope you've had fun.


One more to go! You've been patient with me, and that's good. Now fly to that last structure, and do your worst.

Encrypted Transmission
And then there's Irichi. Do you remember him? That weird transmission at the Venal Regional Comms tower? I helped him plan that. He hates Cilis just as much as Kori hates her. In fact, he really despises Kori, too. See, we're a big, happy family, aren't we? You might think we're all about loot and plunder, smash and grab tactics, but the Guristas are more than that. We're about power, betrayal, and fear. That is our currency, our lifestyle, our credo.


Voila! Here I am. Come closer so I can tell you a secret.

Encrypted Transmission
You're being used, by Kori and Cilis. You eggers aren't as smart as you think you are. No worries, though: Elaborate schemes have a tendency to play themselves out. Go with the flow, see what Cilis does next, and go from there. Give Cilis my regards; I'll tell Kori that you never showed up. Good day, egger.


Oh yeah. I forgot. I have something for you to pass along to Cilis. Tell her, “Foxfire is in the Rabbit Hole.” She'll know what that means.

Mission briefing
Here are the coordinates for the Rabbit Hole. If Kipo is there, get him and bring him back. He's been missing for a long time, and I've had no leads on his whereabouts. I'll explain on the way. If Kori has anything to do with this, I'll make sure he pays for his this crime. Go get Kipo!

Mission briefing
Lt. Kipo will never be the same again. He was my best operative, my closest lieutenant, and the best pirate under my command. He is a shell of a man, a mutilated sack of meat, nearly useless as a soldier. I'll have to take care of him, one way or the other…

In the meantime, Kori must pay. I know he's a traitor and has been working for the Caldari Navy. What I don't have is proof, however. Lt. Kipo, though he is mostly unintelligible at this point, was able to form a coherent sentence or two. And that dumb bastard Irichi told him of some of Kori's future plans. Looks like Kori is sending our old friend Eroma to meet with the Navy very soon, and Eralen has a special transponder to get through the tough Navy security. Your mission is to ambush Eralen, grab the transponder, and enter the Caldari base. Once you have this Caldari Navy Overlay Transponder, the Navy ships won't hassle you. I think. I'm looking for a special dossier, Correspondence Log KL-513. That should be everything I need to blackmail Kori and get him out of the Guristas.

Gated deadspace pockets are one jump away in AJCJ-1.

Blitz: kill Eroma Eralen, take Acceleration Gate then another Acceleration Gate. Arc around to the opposite side of the Forcefield, destroy the Caldari Bunker with a 16 km range weapon and Tractor Beam the Correspondence Log KL-513 Cargo Container.

Alternative Blitz: kill Eroma Eralen, loot the Caldari Navy Overlay Transponder, take Acceleration Gate then another Acceleration Gate. Approach the Caldari Bunker, destroy each wave as it spawns and then destroy the 150 HP/s regenerating Forcefield.

Tips:

  • Orbit Eroma Eralen at 3 km to avoid damage
  • If you don't attack the friendly ships, they won't attack you
  • Caldari Bunker reinforcement waves spawn as you approach the Caldari Bunker
  • All Caldari Bunker reinforcement waves will spawn when you attack the Caldari Bunker
  • Enemy ships can't pass through the Forcefield (unless you encounter a bug where all ships can pass through the Forcefield)
  • Caldari Bunker drops two Cargo Containers: one has ammo and the other the Correspondence Log KL-513
  • You will lose 2.4% Caldari State Faction Standing when you destroy the Caldari Bunker (Note: Also lost standing for destroying the forcefield AND NOT the bunker)

Agent Conversation about Eroma Eralen
There's Kori's agent, Eroma Eralen. Take him out and grab his Caldari Navy Overlay Transponder. With that item in tow, you'll be able to get past the Caldari guards in the next part of this deadspace pocket. They will think you're Eroma. Be careful, though: Eroma is a wild card, and there's no telling what he'll do.
Eroma Eralen
Good to see you again, capsuleer. I knew we'd meet again. You caught me without my smoke and mirrors. Guess I'll have to take you out the old-fashioned way.
Eroma Eralen
I've been bested. You'll make a fine Gurista one day, capsuleer. I think it's about time I retire from flying. Thank you for giving me a glorious end to my career…

Mission debriefing
We're a big, happy family, aren't we? You thought a pirate's life was all fun and plunder, profit and murder, the thrill of being an outlaw. We have our own problems, our internal strife. Sometimes, I don't know why I chose this lifestyle.

But I'm a capsuleer, and life has a different quality to it. You probably know what I'm talking about. All this backstabbing and in-fighting, these land-grabs and territorial bickering. What does this matter for a demigod? For us, it's all a matter of attrition: The last clone standing wins all the worthless, empty space in the universe.

Oh well. It's fun while it lasts, right? Kori was right: This isn't over between us. It never will be. But I'll win out in the end. He'll die, I'll die, Irichi'll die. But then I'll hop into my next clone, and I'll win. That makes it worth it, right?

This feud is between us Guristas; you have your own battles to fight. So fly well, egger. Maybe we'll work together again someday.
