The bridge lights dim under the nebula's ion haze. Beyond the forward glass, a dead Imperial relay station flickers once, then again, like a heartbeat trying to wake.

That relay can carry our broadcast farther than the skimmer ever could. If we wake it, every listening post in range hears us.
The ship groans as a gravity well tugs at its hull. On the scanner, the flicker steadies into a rhythmic pulse, dormant but reachable.
Shifter
The relay is old Imperial hardware, but the signal path is still open.
Mara braces one hand on the console and turns to Shifter, already reading the approach lanes. The moment is clear, risk the jump, seize the relay, and turn the Empire's own ears into a trumpet.
Mara Vey
If we can spoof its wake key, we don't just hide from the pursuit. We broadcast the purge list, Joren's betrayal, everything, across the sector.
