*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots Federation ALERT*<br/>The [[Kumo Crew]] syndicate is requesting deliveries to mass-produce a recreational drug named '[[helix]]'. The drug is believed to originate with the [[Blue Viper Club Clan Dredger|Blue Viper Club]], a [[Dredger Clans|nomadic clan]] travelling aboard an ancient [[dredger]] that recently appeared near Kumo City station. Arch-Corsair Kay Volantyne, representing the Kumo Council, provided details to local [[News Feed|newsfeed]] The [[Pegasi Sentinel]]: "Helix will change lives across the galaxy! Derived from high-quality organic crops, and with many medicinal and psychological benefits, it is guaranteed to bring contentment. All we need to kick-start manufacture are deliveries of [[Agronomic Treatment|agronomic treatment]], [[Liquid Oxygen|liquid oxygen]] and [[Performance Enhancers|performance enhancers]] to Kumo City in the Pegasi Sector PN-T C3-14 system. The Kumo Council also offers generous bounties on all wanted ships to protect traders carrying these commodities." Many authorities have registered concern that this will exacerbate drug addiction and misuse, which are common social problems. However, some markets have shown interest in the potential new product. [[Vox Galactica]] has reported rumours that helix may be a previously unknown strain of [[Onion Head|onionhead]], a highly popular psychedelic. It remains unknown whether the Blue Viper Club cultivated helix aboard their dredger or acquired it from another source.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/60e70619ca08e10ba8548dab GalNet: Kumo Crew Initiative to Produce New Commodity]</ref>

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots Federation ALERT*<br/>Five new [[starport]]s constructed by [[Archon Delaine]]'s recent campaign have now become fully operational. The [[Orbis]] [[station]]s, which are run by the Kumo Council faction, are listed below:<br/>Kumo City in the Pegasi sector PN-T C3-14 system ([[Harma]] region)<br/>California Freeport in the HIP 18390 system ([[California Nebula]])<br/>Crimson Exchange in the HIP 10792 system ([[Sothis]] region)<br/>Fort Xeno in the HIP 62154 system ([[Coalsack Nebula]])<br/>Delaine Terminus in the Eol Prou PC-K c9-91 system ([[Colonia Region|Colonia region]])<br/>The starports will provide a full range of services, although their low populations bring concerns that they may be under-staffed. Additionally, security agencies in nearby systems expressed fears that since they are operated by the [[Kumo Crew]] syndicate, they are likely to harbour black markets and promote illegal activity. Arch-Corsair Kay Volantyne, a senior member of the Kumo Council, addressed this when she told The [[Pegasi Sentinel]]: "These starports exist solely to encourage trade, which is the lifeblood of our galaxy. Sometimes a little lifeblood can get spilled here and there, so I'm sure our new neighbours will welcome our protection, yes?" Other factions have appeared in the five systems, including subsidiaries of [[Sirius Corporation]]. Several [[News Feed|newsfeeds]] have speculated about an ambiguous connection between the syndicate and the megacorp, whose financial support might explain how the Kumo Crew managed to extend so far beyond its territory.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/608bf1dcfa046a4b415de708 GalNet: Kumo Crew Starports Open for Business]</ref>
