This is a record of completion of Phase one of Mission 9. Image recordings of my travels in the Border and Edge worlds along with maps from system scanners can are attached if they are of interest to you:
After a quick resupply at Mactan Base, I returned to Omega-5 from Cambridge and almost immediately spotted four low-power coalition frequency's within long range of my ship, further investigation allowed me to track them to a jump hole. I recorded the location of this hole and followed the ships unnoticed to the Omega-7 jump hole where I was spotted by one of the pilots.
SCRA|Kostya.Petrovin: Lane Hacker?
Elektra.King: Hello there
SCRA|Ethan.Scott: Long way from home, no?
Elektra.King: Indeed, I have reason to be here.
SCRA|Ethan.Scott: And what would that be? Besides another target for us?
Elektra.King: I assure you I pose no threat
SCRA|CPW-Social.Credit: A Falch', eh?
SCRA|CPW-Social.Credit: Flew one of those during my stint with the Hackers.
SCRA|CPW-Social.Credit: Fast things, them.
SCRA|Ethan.Scott: Fast, but fragile.
SCRA|CPW-Social.Credit: Nothing a missile or two wont kill, if it came to that.
Two of the ships continued on to Omega-7 and the others remained behind to interrogate me.
It was at this point that we were attacked by a large number rookie corsair fighters and agreed to move to cambridge resume communications. I managed to escape the encounter along with ship scans through distracting the pilots from my purpose through conversation, we even talked about our opinions on how best to topple the corrupt government of Liberty. It was easier than I expected, it seems they have a problem concentrating on the task at hand...
SCRA|Ethan.Scott: Focusing on Ageira is like chopping away at the leg of the monster.
SCRA|Ethan.Scott: You have to aim for the neck.
So I got away with valuable information without firing a single shot and all I had to do was talk to them!
Elektra.King: Now if it is ok with you, I would like to say farewell on peaceful terms.
SCRA|Ethan.Scott: You can go, but don't return.
Well I waited some time before I risked it, but I decided to ignore Mr.Scott's instructions and investigate the jump hole I had seen the Coalition leaving from in Omega-5. Almost immediately I was under fire from several weapons platforms, a capital ship and multiple fighters, in my desperate attempts to survive I managed to grab one picture that shows the Coalition presence in Omega-52. It isn't great, but it's enough to prove that they rule that system with an iron fist.
Luckily I managed, somehow, to drift back to Mactan Base. I had sustained massive hull damage and was running low on vital resources but it didn't matter, Because I was alive and had the information I needed.
