Reaching out

I started investigating Gens and Kamih. One of the locations listed by Glitter was very interesting! There were some abandoned data stations with the usual loot, but it also contained a sort of vault, a shielded magnetic bottle:

I believe this to be one of the artefact caches by the blood raiders. It was casually placed away from the usual loot containers, but it is much harder to crack than the containers around it. I will need some specialized equipment for this one: a Wilson line unraveler. This piece of equipment can't be found in far-flung Aridia: I'll need to hop back to Amarr for it.

At the same time, I tried to forge diplomatic ties with the locals. However, they jumped out of system before I could connect:

[ 2023.11.17 22:00:57 ] Theodosius Savnar > Ave Aleksey! How are you doing tonight?
[ 2023.11.17 22:01:13 ] Aleksey Spaks > hey
[ 2023.11.17 22:01:18 ] Aleksey Spaks > all right=0
[ 2023.11.17 22:02:20 ] Theodosius Savnar > Good! I'm an explorer, from the Amarr core worlds. Have you seen any blood raider activity here recently?
[ 2023.11.17 22:03:03 ] Theodosius Savnar > In particular, I will be searching along the path from Kador to Delve, which runs through Aridia.
[ 2023.11.17 22:03:47 ] Theodosius Savnar > I believe this path is controlled by LowSechnaya Sholupen, your
[ 2023.11.17 22:03:59 ] Theodosius Savnar > ...ah and he is gone.

The error here is that I should not disclose that I am from the core worlds of the Empire. This may be too impressive and scary for the simple souls in the fringe worlds, who probably never journeyed beyond their constellation.
