Today is a sad day, ***. One of our freelancers, working on a simple reconnaissance job in ***, was brutally murdered by Serpentis thugs while on duty. He was well liked in TransStellar Shipping and we will miss his loyal service to us greatly.
Now you might be thinking, how does this affect you? Well I'll tell you. We aren't letting this outrage go unpunished. I want the people behind this brutal murder taken care of immediately. I will supply you with a bookmark to their hideout, which is heavily guarded by Serpentis fighters. Head out there and avenge your colleague by destroying their habitation module, it's the primary residence of their leaders. Leave no pirate survivors behind.
Oh and one other thing, they have an asteroid colony out there which is used to house their workers, miners and such. I suggest you leave them in one piece, we have no quarrel with them. We'll send a personnel transport to pick em up shortly after you return, as long as you have eliminated all of the pirates.
