Mission briefing

We've got them, <Character>. The decoded data from that node has given us undeniable proof. Ishukone has been engaged in the unauthorized exchange of Caldari prisoners of war, and worse yet, they've only been focusing on the rescue and recovery of their own people. The information you recovered reveals a number of staging points where they ferry their people back to the State. In fact, Katsen suspects the only reason they evacuated others was to keep the number of prisoners relatively normal and inconspicuous. I don't know about his claims, but I sure know what I've seen out there on the job. The next step from here is to let Ishukone know they've been compromised. The leverage that grants will allow us to return Mikano safely and without incident. More importantly though, it also means we can get them to stop this amateurish exchange they have going on, even if only momentarily. If they want to rescue our families, then they should be doing a proper damn job of it like the Navy, not this half-assed nonsense that leaves a paper trail extending across the cluster. This current setup will get everyone killed or blackmailed if it is allowed to continue. You're off to another P.O.W holding ground, <Character>, same as before. This time though, you won't be liberating anyone. In fact there is not even a Federation presence inside this facility. It is where the Ishukone prisoners have been held before being escorted back home. Your job is simply to deliver a document from Katsen. In it, he explains the extent to which we could ruin Ishukone with this information, and then requests a meeting. We're pretty confident they'll make time to schedule us in. Due to the extreme sensitivity of this information, we'd prefer by far if you could personally deliver the document. You've proven so dependable that we hoped a quick flyover wouldn't be too much to ask? Kaalakiota unveils Black Rise survey program, Scope article, March 4th, YC 111 According to Niteloho Koirolen, Kaalakiota Corporation chief spokesperson, the program will be conducted by both the corporation's intelligence division and the Home Guard, the goal being the development of a comprehensive resource database of the Black Rise region. The program will survey the planets and moons across 49 systems in 6 constellations. "Today's announcement reinforces Kaalakiota's commitment to the development of the Black Rise region," said Koirolen. "Although the State had previously done an outstanding job in Black Rise, there is still a lot to discover. We are sure that our program will ultimately contribute to the welfare of the whole State." The Black Rise region borders established Caldari and Gallente space and was previously deemed impenetrable, despite many efforts to map it. However, Caldari forces gained access to the region and secretly colonized it. Although it is clear that operations in Black Rise persisted for a longer time, experts claim that the region is still largely unexplored.

Agent Conversation

Hello again, pilot. It's good to see you doing so well. You've come far, very far, and we're indebted to you for everything you've done. We've been watching you gather the evidence that you've come here to deliver; you shouldn't worry, it has all been properly discredited and the appropriate co-verification documents have also been misplaced. Thanks to you, we've been able to anticipate Nugoeihuvi's moves and ensure that any hard data, anything truly conclusive, was relocated to a more secure location or isolated from collaborating evidence. Our mission to rescue more prisoners remains intact, but only barely. We need to act conclusively now and settle this matter before Nugoeihuvi think up some other scheme to undo us. I have just the assignment for you that will make this happen. I'll be honest and straightforward with you, as you've more than earned it. We plan to hold Katsen Isha's family until he can learn to hold his tongue. It is – ultimately – the only reasonable recourse left to us after being hounded like this. One family threatened so that many, many more might simply live. I think you know what must be done. I look forward to speaking with you shortly.
