Wolf 1301, long under the control of the Wolf 1301 Syndicate, has made serious strides in breaking the power of the drug cartel. The Syndicate, which made a fortune selling Wolf Fesh to black markets across the galaxy, was recently run out of Saunders’ Dive by the up and coming E.X.O. democratic independents.
Fesh is illegal under the new government, and E.X.O. security patrols have bust the drugs trade, beating back the Syndicate to one of the system’s outposts. Several arrests of high-ranking Syndicate members have already been made, and local observers are anticipating an imminent raid on the outpost to break the Syndicate’s power.
The E.X.O. government is hoping that the drugs trade will at last be eliminated, but social commentators are warning that the popularity of fesh may see the recipe for the synthetic psychotrope turn up again once the high profile campaign has ended.
