Escalation message:
This was probably the smallest Gurista hideout you ever saw and no wonder they were forced from time to time to get their ships serviced elsewhere, even though it was by rogue drones. The mystery is how they managed to get in there and out again in one piece. Usually rogue drones have only one standard response to the sighting of a carbon based life form and that is to run the "murderous rampage" script, or whatever it is that makes them go bonkers in a company where not all members are not purely held together by nuts and bolts.

While this has been happening, your instruments have been analyzing the drone logs and the next location which shows any promise is already flashing on one of the panels.

Off all the evident customers, a rogue mercenary band was perhaps the least surprising consumers of the drone's services, but still, it is troubling to see any outlaw group being able to cooperate like this with a rogue drone colony.
