You go to him

You decide to go to the random coordinates, and fight this thing out. As you wait at the center of nothing, you hope there would be only a few vessels that he could muster. Who knows? Perhaps his reign is on its last legs, and all is needed is a killing blow. But then your jaw drops as you see seven pirate vessels come out of FTL in front of you. Followed by five additional ones behind you.

Shit! You think to yourself. You hear the ping of an incoming transmission, and you decide to receive it, seeing Garin’s face in front of you.

“Power down your vessel, and prepare to be boarded,” he says.

And all of a sudden, you find yourself in front of a decision.
