Small Roider Station , 10 lightyears west from Core Worlds, Karon System.
*Jean Bount was sipping third synthethic coffee on his duty , operating sensor nodes.
Pirates had not yet discovered this station so it was boring job. Most exciting thing he spotted through last standard cycle was few traders which were allowed to know station location and stray adventurer with gamma core on collar, if you believe a hangar crew. Strange dude it was, shouting bout milk of human kindness or something. Small blip on long rage lidar-suite suddendly took his attention. Another convoy with supplies which will take ore and refined metals to core-worlds? No, a little too early, they were bound to be here by next day. Also too big, much too big really. Did not look like ghost ping, it had some erratic movement. He finally did it, wanted some action? - Well - , he thought,-if we will survive i will wish for some peace and quiet. He switched alarm setting , which promped into action small defence fleet of typical Roider variety. It was then when one of ship on vanguard of enemy force was indentified as one of automatic ship, which were one of more disastrous scourges of far away parts of Persean Sector. While well known by people with at least three cells and any knowledge of outside core territories, it was very uncommon to see this dangerous remnants of hidden experiments and stray tendrils of AI fleets from wars long done on the move.
-Oh... we're ***. He said with resignation, ending his third and last in life coffee.
After twelve hours convoy which was destined to arrive found remnant of broken station and it small defence fleet.
Two or three hours took them to find any clue , but after that alarms had been raised in nearby systems. Large AI fleet or even multiple ones were moving with intention throughout systems , looking for something? Worrying. Destination? Unkown. Reason? Unkown. Several fleets composed of military, freebooters and volunteers were being prepared by opportunistic powers of Persean Sector. Hyperlinked message on 13:40 had finally gave them target's destination. Message delivered from order of monks.
"Ai Fleet, target will attack [Redacted] in system [DATA CORRUPTED], time to arrive, 4 days, threat level Aurum, request assistance on [Redacted], reward for defence included.
Signed,
Hetman Jan Rybak, commander of 6th Defence Fleet.
