This piece was written by the player running Anastasia, the psionic journalist, following the events on Pourne. It’s presented as they wrote it for the Syndalian Banner, a yellow-press newsletter circulated in the Trojan Reach, as a piece of agit-prop aimed at strengthening the position of their contact on Pourne.
Your reporter’s Pournese contact has given us to understand that the persistently poor security of the Pourne Port Security operational division has, not for the first time, given Pourne Bureau Of Investigation materiel help with their investigations.
We don’t know what the PPS was so ineptly intent on keeping quiet, what with the PBI actually being able to keep a secret when they try, but we do hear about rather smug whispers that – once again – there are red faces in orbit around Pourne.
What this will mean for the allocation of authority in the future is anyone’s guess. Is it merely more ambiguously accounted-for expensing by the Port Security Chief’s unusually young and attractive attache, or something of more relevance to the safety of the Pourne system? We haven’t heard definite information yet – but surely the Federal Auditors commissioners will take note of this trend.
