I am in dire need of aid. There are things unfolding on Thordin’s Belt that could not possibly go unnoticed and yet, have. I can tell you only little for now as the enemy of us all has the power to read the minds of most sentient beings.
They are an enigmatic race called the Psions. I suspect they were here long before the refugees arrived. I don’t know why they came, but I have uncovered what they are doing. They are building a metagenic bomb of great destructive proportions, able to genetically wipe out entire worlds without harming a single structure or ship.
I am surrounded on all side by those infected by the Psions, I dare not step forward least I am captured in their web as well. I need to be purposely vague to avoid discovery of my identity. I am taking great risk to involve others but I am out of options; I require assistance.
The Psions have a storage lab here on the Belt in one of the off branch mines. They are storing chemicals there, dangerous chemicals they will use in the construction of the bomb.
I realize you may find this all difficult to believe. I don’t expect you to take my word for it. Look into it on your own. Find a multiscanner in the merchant yards. If you look hard enough, I suspect you’ll be able to find a used one for around 250 credits. Use the local network to find out what one would need to make a metagenic bomb. Modify the multiscanner to search for those chemicals. See what you uncover.
You’ll see the same thing I did. The moving cave. It’s not far from here. Those chemicals need to be destroyed. After you’ve seen for yourself, the same merchant that sold you the scanner can give you some explosives to destroy the vats of chemicals.
The fate of the people of Thordin’s Belt rests in your hands, and maybe even the future of the worlds in the Rimward Barrens.
And now I’ll repeat, you don’t need to trust me, look into it on your own. Do not report to anyone, the Psions have their fingers everywhere. No one’s mind is safe. Get the scanner.
