Everyone,
I guess most of you will
have heard the tales of Lucrecia's hoard. After the space pirate disappeared,
stories about a cache of artifacts and rare minerals have circulated throughout
the cluster. Some of these tales are probably a little taller than others. But
the legend seems to have some truth to it, and some people would like to get
their hands on it. As a matter of fact, I know that some of you have spent years
looking for it, so far to no avail.
Recently we have been
approached by a collector who is offering a large reward for the recovery of the
Nova-Loop. This artifact (believed to be of alien origin) was last known
to be in the possession of Lucrecia, and it is widely believed to have been part
of Lucrecia's hoard.
Normally, I would not distribute
such a message but the collector has generously agreed to pay the bounty to
both the League and to the finder.
There have been attempts by
the corporate censors to delete the exploits of Lucrecia from history. Our
younger League members might not even have heard the stories. Lucrecia was a
Robin Hood-type bandit who operated in the Badlands some thirty years ago.
Her vessel struck again and again at the large corporate transports.
A good proportion of the wealth she liberated went to help the most downtrodden
colonists.
At the time of her
disappearance, Lucrecia had amassed a small fortune that she kept at a hidden
location. No-one knows what happened to her or her fortune. Most believe the
cache to be hidden somewhere in the Hoffer's Wake system.
Obviously we are keen to increase
the chance of a League member finding the cache. So I can reveal the one clue
Lucrecia left behind. Her logs contain a tantalizing clue to the location of
her stash:
Triangulate the planet
Alexander with the location of the Hideout at time XXX.
Unfortunately, the date is
missing from her logs. Worse still, Lucrecia seems to have taken the location of
the hideout to her grave.
I don't hold out much hope
of anyone actually finding this Lucrecia's hoard (many have tried and many have
failed), but what the hell, give it a try. What have you got to lose?
