The Loris Trade Secretary was assassinated and replaced, and trade enforcement was weakened as a result. Brotherhood Marauders and Raiders began preying on traffic in the outer sectors.

Unfortunately, Force Seventh Fleet needs to get to the Korius system to complete the pincer strategy or the Sixth Fleet will be trapped in hostile territory. Taking control of the Loris system is quickest way to achieve that goal. And that means that both the pirates and the Hegemony warships are legal targets. + +--- +Jonas Devlin, Force:Intel Third Directorate + +************************************* |
