The company landed on Sasiria and browsed USIN postings for opportunities. Sasira is openly contested and run by Dahl, Kisuton, and Torgue megacorps. Grand Duke Adam Allister is effectively a figurehead for the Imperium within the system. All three corporations maintain large security forces and respective areas on the planet as well as each having offworld mining operations on local moons and planetoids.

They accepted a contract for 6,000 GalCredits to steal a series of data disks from a local company. This was intended to be an operation as stealthy as possible and avoid serious physical injury to any security personnel. The group executed their plan and were successful in obtaining the disks before heavy security arrived accompanied with a poised, elderly woman.

Grand Dame Vera Allister was pleased with the company utilizing restraint in obtaining the disks and admitted (once taking possession of the data disks) that the operation was a trial of sorts. She required a group of individuals with unique skillsets to find her nephew, Duke Winston Allister.

Playing a 2D hologram, the group viewed grainy, soundless image of a man sitting in an office. They saw Duke Winston approach the figure calmly from behind, pull out small pistol, and shoot the individual three times. Grand Dame explained this was an assistant manager to Dahl megacorp. Her nephew was quickly arrested the following day.

The noble family was able to secure him under house arrest until his trial. Duke Winston stated he had no memory of the incident at all. The Grand Dame admitted freely she believed him and helped him secure a small craft and funds to escape. She suggested the Onususorus system until a solution could be found. This was three weeks ago.

Meanwhile her brother Grand Duke Adam Allister had employed bounty agents to find out where Duke Winston is. She fears that Winston will be killed. She thinks her brute of a brother will try to see to a quick end to the situation in order to appease the megacorps within the system. He has another son that is favored to rule and wants to ensure a smooth future transition of power.

Grand Dame Vera admitted that she made a mistake. She wants the group to find Winston and return him to the noble family before any law enforcement or bounty hunters do so first. She offered a small, little finger ring with the family crest. She stated that the ring will ensure Winston will believe what they tell him about returning to Sasiria. There will be a trial, but Duke Winston returning on his own volition will likely help ensure leniency in sentencing.

For payment she has offered 15,000 credits (in addition to the 6,000 provided for the trial theft operation). The company agreed and began to make plans to leave the system.
