Yesterday Professor Ishmael Palin called upon independent pilots to deliver meta-alloys, produced by the newly discovered ‘barnacles’ in the Pleiades Nebula, to Obsidian Orbital, suggesting that the material could be the cure for the technological virus spreading through inhabited space. However, Professor Violet Belbin of the Xenological Research Institute today expressed doubts:
“I would caution against any hasty hailing of this wonder material as the answer to our problems. The nature of these ‘barnacles’ is not fully understood. They could be a form of alien life. Harvesting them may have unforeseen consequences. The Xenological Research Institute is sending a team to Maia and asks that Professor Palin takes our concerns into consideration.”
Pilots have already started scouring the system and are bringing back cargo holds full of meta-alloys to Professor Palin’s base of operations at Obsidian Orbital.
