Rennac listened intently as the missions were all laid out, paying particularly close attention to the last one. "I have to agree with Teeth on this one. Even if their typical Com systems were knocked out by a virus or attack any engineer or technician worth a damn would be able to set up at least a crude distress beacon from spare parts on site. To simply go dark that suddenly without any warning. Either something is jamming the signals on a huge scale which would indicate the possibility of intercepting Alliance transmissions in which case all of our transmitted intel could be compromised. The second option is that there is something that is both undetectable and has enough firepower to wipe out an entire colony with a single sweep, which is a clear threat to the alliance for other more obvious reasons. The marauders and cargo will more than likely stay where they are so long as no one tries to stir the nest. The fourth contract though could be the precurser of something much bigger. And as scared as I am to say, I have an inkling of what that may be. Captain, may I take over the display?"
