Mission briefing

Alitura said you needed more information about some kind of drone problem. The Sisters have referred a few promising capsuleers in the past, so I'm willing to give you a chance, but I can't do anything else until this mess I'm dealing with has been taken care of. If you could retrieve some drones from Harerget, that would speed things up considerably. You see, every drone in that system has ceased responding to signals. That just doesn't happen with Federation technology… unless the drones have been destroyed. Our research and development team needs whatever components still exist in order to analyze the remains. Fly out there and bring back one of the drones – or any parts that might remain. You'll need to be careful. There were no signs of other ships in the system, so I have no idea what could have destroyed our drones. Early Drones The first drones in the Gallente-Caldari war were little more than mines with proximity detonators and limited movement, but soon they advanced to a level where a single drone rivaled a solo-fighter’s capabilities. The drones reversed the tide of the war and helped create a stalemate between the two empires.

Objectives
Retrieve the Corrupted Drone Components (1.0 m³) and return them to Delphine Xarasier.

You will warp in at 36 km from the Corrupted Drone container. Head towards that container to loot it. At 45-50 km, 3 x "Broken Duvolle Laboratories Recon Drone" will be orbiting. You can ignore these drones completely - they will not attack. If you attack them anyway, they will pop quickly - and interestingly, the names of their wrecks change to random rogue drone wreck names, e.g. Mammon Apis Wreck or Belphegor Apis Wreck.

Grab the item and return to the agent.
