| Greetings, <name>. Several days ago, an internal security team identified a Gallente deep cover saboteur working at one of our clandestine shipyards producing the current generation of Widow-class Black Ops battleships. He swallowed a hidden poison tablet as we moved in to arrest him, so he is no longer a threat.
However, during a routine quality control check, the shipyard's scientific team was shocked to discover a highly advanced nanite swarm that the saboteur had somehow introduced into the shipyard's stockpile of advanced adhesives used to bond sensor-absorbing coatings to the hulls of our newly-constructed Widows. The effect of this harmful agent is to slowly erode this protective coating, thus increasing the ship's signature radius, making it much easier for our enemies to detect and attack.
Given the slow-acting nature of this particular breed of nanite, it is unlikely that this gradual loss of stealth capability would be noticeable under routine operating conditions, thus placing the ship and its crew at mortal risk when operating in hostile space. Essentially, the Widow's commander would not know that his ship had lost its critical operational advantage until he was detected and targeted by hostile combatants. Given the very specialized role of this ship, not only would the Widow be compromised, but it is possible than any ships he might be bridging in via its covert jump portal generator could be unknowingly hot dropped near a waiting enemy fleet, instead of empty space.
In order to remedy this critical situation, we need you to immediately transport a large quantity of our new aerogel counteragent to a station for further distribution to the fleet. This shipment represents our best and only hope to quickly repair the damage done by the Gallente spy and ensure the safety of our brave Widow pilots and crew.
