*Jarrow Island - one of the few small islands on planet New London - was known to contain the Surgical Reconstruction Center or like the people that live there are used to call it - the SRC. In the past years this island was rarely visited. It was occupied by few scientists which were working on several low paid projects about human medical treatment. During the war with Kusari the situation on this island changed drastically due to the need of a more advanced treatment methods. Shortly before the end of the war with Kusari and the beginning of the war with Gallia - the Queen has bestowed upon Sir Piett a peerage, as Lord of Jarrow on New London. The newly appointed lord in charge of the island and director of SRC, now known as Baron Piett, decided to push further the possibilities of this facility by investing nearly all of his family wealth in projects mixing nano-technology with medical treatment. The results were astonishing so the projects had to shift their nature from "Civilian" treatment in to "Military" and later to be marked as "Classified". Part of these projects are about the creation of specific battle armors, infused with nanobots and stealth technology, to further assist the commandos of the armed forces and the top agents of the Bretonian Intelligence. The efforts of Baron Piett gave many results and in this way - more funding from the Crown. Later the Baron has managed to create business deals and hoard more credits - further strengthening the flow of resources needed to support the normal life of the scientists on his island. From nearly an abandoned facility the SRC was turned in to a secret factory for technological marvels. *

*Landing Platform One was far away from the castle-like structure in the middle of Jarrow Island. Although there were several other hangars located closer to the main building Baron Piett ordered his important guests to be forwarded to this landing area. He was eager to show off the whole property he is managing for his Queen to his new possible future friend.*

Black Trooper Captain: Obsidian Alpha, report!
Black Trooper Alpha: Alpha here, ma'am.
Black Trooper Captain: What is the situation on the Landing Platform, is it clear?
Black Trooper Alpha: The transport for planet Sprague is still here but is currently preparing to leave, ma'am.
Black Trooper Captain: Captain Moore is playing with my patience. Inform him to clear the area in ten minutes or else will forward his next call to the Baron.
Black Trooper Alpha: Copy that. On my way.

*William Moore, captain of a Small Transport was about to leave Landing Platform One. His cargo contained Light Arms and Light Armors for the Bretonia Police stationed on planet Sprague, Omega-3. There BPA were occupied to arm the local refugees and form a militia in order to further booster the defense of the system. The militia was known as Civilian Defense Initiative (or in short the CDI). There the Bretonian Police were having a shortage of supplies and were expecting a delivery soon. *

Black Trooper Alpha: Captain, the transport is leaving. The landing area is clear.
Black Trooper Captain: Copy that. Hold your ground. I will inform the Baron and we will join you there.

*The Black Troopers, aka the "Obsidian Guard", are a private security organization created by Baron Piett after his retirement from active service within the Armed Forces. Nearly all of these troopers were taken directly from his former flagship - HMS-Royal Sovereign. Back then they were part of his security team on board - now they continue to serve him willingly and without question. Over the years their affection and respect towards Piett turned them in to fanatics who live with one goal in mind - to protect him at all cost. Aside from that they are loyal and highly trained soldiers with years of experience. Now their numbers are no more than fifty men.*

Black Trooper Captain: Baron Piett, the landing area is clear. Shall we proceed?
Jarrow: About time. Captain Moore should not have refueled his ship in the last minute. He and I will have a little talk once he returns. Now then, our guests are to arrive at any moment. Let's not make them wait.

*Baron Piett left his office on top of the "Sage Tower" followed by captain Khan. Together they headed down the road leading to the landing pad. There the black trooper alpha was waiting obediently but he quickly joined his captain in formation behind the Baron. Far away on the horizon a small dot appears and quickly starts to form the shape of a bretonian atmosphere shuttle.
The SIS delegation is on this shuttle but most importantly - director Weber himself - and Baron Piett was looking forward to meet him in person.*
