Line 1,436:
*Onionhead Gamma Strain is released on the market in systems that include Alici, Baraswar, Kishpakho, Nastrond, and Nocori. Claims that the drug is no more harmful or addictive than alcohol or coffee are largely dismissed, and it is declared illegal in all systems but those controlled by anarchy governments. Rumours swirl that Sirius Corporation is party to the deal between Kumo Crew and the Blue Viper Club, and is secretly ferrying the drug to distribution points with its own ships, but this is rejected by Sirius VP of Corporate Marketing Sinclair Faraldo.
*FIA Deputy Director Bethany Blake confirms that the Proactive Detection Bureau is being used to gather intelligence on secessionist leaders in the Federation, who are then being arrested and charged with planning to violate the Federal Accord. President Hudson and Shadow President Winters personally attempt to calm certain system leaders within their spheres of influence and convince them to not secede.
*Aegis is partially suspended as the superpowers launch an investigation into the disappearance of the megaship Alexandria. This comes amid a crisis in public confidence in the anti-Thargoid research organisation. Many Aegis operations are shut down, and senior members including Professor Alba Tesreau are forced to resign. Meanwhile, it is asserted by some security agencies that Salvation, whom many view as a more competent alternative to Aegis, is in fact the leader of an Aegis splinter group built by rogue agents with stolen resources.
