The disappearance of former senator [[Kahina Tijani Loren]] was linked to the shadowy organization known as the 'Dark Wheel' in mid 3301. When Lady Kahina's [[Imperial Clipper]] the "Seven Veils" was impounded and examined at the [[Capitol]] spaceport it was found to be completely stripped of valuable equipment. However, Loren's imperial tiara and a small emblem were found in the cockpit. The emblem had the word ‘Salomé’ on one side and an ancient symbol on the other which belongs to an organization known as The Dark Wheel.<ref>https://www.drewwagar.com/progress-report/profile-senator-kahina-tijani-loren/</ref> | The disappearance of former senator [[Kahina Tijani Loren]] was linked to the shadowy organization known as the 'Dark Wheel' in mid 3301.

The [[Codex]] reveals some clues. According to the self-professed Dark Wheel expert Lyta Crane, Dark Wheel operated from a disused [[starport]] that orbits the 8th moon of an unnamed [[Gas Giant|gas giant]]. The station is a Toroid, hence a 'wheel' and ran at minimal reduced power to remain unnoticed, hence 'Dark'. This starport is supposedly the only way the Dark Wheel can verify its identity to new inductees. This new info, however, might not be fully the truth, as this "expert" may have forged evidence for monetary gain.<ref name=":0">[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/a5drfy/the_dark_wheel_new_data_from_the_codex_gives_a/ The Dark Wheel: New Data from the Codex gives a HUGE clue.]</ref> | |||
So there could be a starport we are meant to look for. However, if it's currently out there it's probably behind a permit (my guess is the station is in Polaris). However the means to acquire this permit may already be available.<ref name=":0" /> | |||
The means to get one is to complete a little test: Join the genuine Dark Wheel. The one operating in Shinrarta could be a phony front.<ref name=":0" /> | |||
The [[Codex]] provides a clue on how to join: "It is futile to attempt to contact the Dark Wheel of one's own initiative. However - it is they who always initiate contact, initially in disguise, revealing their true identity once a suitable test of courage and skill has been discreetly administered, and passed."<ref name=":0" /> | |||
