From: Commissioner Chun-Mai Dawn To: Recruit Officer Christoph Lansen Subj: Proving grounds.
Greetings Officer,
I have noticed your zeal and initiative in trying to progress through the Police ranks and I cannot applaud you enough. Having that in mind, I would like to offer you an assignment with which you can prove your worth and earn my own commendation, followed by a swift promotion through our ranks. I would like to request that you take necessary precautions should any unfortunate situations occur.
As you may be aware from one of the briefings, various bands of pirates recently seized control of the Freeport 2 in Bering. As you may imagine, pirates taking over a station located on the taxpayer-funded trade lanes is unacceptable. We suspected something of this sort for a while however, and managed to plant one of our Detectives as an inside man on the Freeport. He gathered information on the movements of various criminal groups in the Bering system and other Independent Worlds. However, to reduce any risks to minimum, he will hand over this data in person to you.
Here is the information you need to know: our man's name is Stephen Kowalski, when we dispatched him he was flying a beat up Starblazer heavy fighter. Our designated meeting point was sector Gamma-4 in the Bering system. You will find your contact there on 20th Oct 824 at 20:00 SMT.
After you read and memorize everything in this message, delete it from your device.
In service of Liberty, Commissioner Dawn
