Mission briefing

We have a problem, for the past few weeks the Blood Raiders have been growing increasingly aggressive. They seem to have set up a small base nearby and every few days our convoys, miners and even military personel get attacked. This structure also serves as sacrifical grounds for the Covenant and they believe it to be holy, hence extremely tight security. My superiors told me to find somebody competent to deal with the threat, and that's why I'm asking you. I suggest you find someone to help you with this, as I fear you will not return should you go alone.
