Mission briefing
As you may have heard, the letters of Bishop Dalamaid are currently on tour through the Empire. Not only are they of doctrinal significance, but sections dealing with the various scandals of the flesh among the clergy of Dalamaid's time have always been popular. It's a little embarrassing to admit, but these tawdry details are usually the bigger draw, a fact that the Empire has rarely been too ashamed to take advantage of. This tour was one such attempt to use the controversial nature of the letters to get more citizens interested in the Scriptures.

However, the plan has misfired. Minmatar terrorists recently broke into the station where the letters were being kept and have stolen them. There's a media lockdown on the whole thing, for attention is the only thing the Minmatar could reasonably expect to gain from such a heist. Still, the letters are of extreme importance to the Empire, even if they aren't grounds to mobilize a large force. That's where you come in: I want you to recover the letters for us.

The terrorists were recently spotted in <System>. They're likely using a series of acceleration gates to disguise the true location of their base, a not uncommon tactic. You will have to approach and activate each acceleration gate you find to progress further to the terrorists' base. Follow the terrorists, destroy any resistance, and return the letters to me.

Acceleration Gates
Acceleration gates are not an uncommon sight for most pilots. Like warp gates, each acceleration gate can only be configured for one point in space; unlike warp gates, they can only be used for travel to other points within the same solar system. Acceleration gates can also be locked, preventing pilot from using them. Such locking mechanisms can be based on ship type, on the presence of active guard units in the area, or on appropriate codes/keys.

Notes

Letters of Bishop Dalamaid:
The letters of Bishop Dalamaid have been the subject of volumes of intellectual discourse. The primary contention of the letters, that true saintly martyrdom is an impossibility for anyone even aware of the concept of sainthood, has gone through various levels of favor over the generations.


Letters XIII through XV include a few juicy morsels about a prostitution ring that was run illegally from a monastery of one of the more prestigious orders in Dalamaid's time.
