Excerpt from the Journal of Zan Holindai, Nix Lord Magus:
"Once we arrived at the Kuiper Belt surrounding the system that holds the planet Theseus, we were already on edge thanks to the prior knowledge that The League of Silence was on to our cargo and wanted it for themselves...
Well, everyone was in place aboard the Endeavor and when we noticed on our scanners the route The League were probably taking to ambush vessels, we decided to play them at their game. The ambush was set up, they were in our sights... everything was set up... and then we fired.
And all hell broke loose. Once they realized we were on to them, they did everything they could to try and prevent us from coming out of this alive, while still getting our precious cargo...
Unfortunate though, really... Unfortunate for them, that is. Thanks to us getting the jump on them. Our superior capabilities and a good amount of skill... The pirates didn't stand a chance.
I'm not going to lie, when the Captain ordered us to destroy the ship, once we had already disabled it, I felt a small shred of sympathy. Not for the pirates... but for those amongst the crew who had hearts and offered to spare the Pirate's lives, be it out of mercy or honor... or whatever.
Sometimes though... Mercy comes in the manner of a quick death to your adversary... and Honor comes in the manner of dying facing your enemies, rather than slowly drifting through space until your life support systems fail."
