You coward, this could have been a great story!
Maybe [[go back->Famiso]] and try again?
The man, a rugged Human approaches you, and speaks.
"I saw ye comin' in with tha ship o' yourz... coudya deliv'r somethin' fer me?"
You reply:
[[Sure!->Mission 1-2]]
[[Nah, I'll pass.->First End]]
"Ah, good! Had ye figured for one of them pilots who see opp'rtunity! List'n mate, one of me candy men has run out of candy, I wantcha to go deliv'r a shipment fer me. To Canopus, this goes!
But ah... dem cops are lookin' for it too, so you gotta maybe sidetrack em on Ross or somethin', maybe bribe em even."

"We know you're shipping illegal goods out here! Luckily for you, we don't get paid enough to care, so maybe if you drop a couple tons for us, we'll leave you alone."
You have no choice but to accept. Their weapons look fearsome.

(else-if:$wanted is 3)[You seem to have lost the cops already. No need to bribe them or something. You shrug, and move on to [[Canopus]]]

[[Start again.->Famiso]]
You have nothing more to do here. You decide to inform the drug supplier. Unfortunately you can't seem to get in contact, so you should probably go fly there manually. Or not.

"Are you still here?".
You look up to see who's talking to you, and notice the 'candy man' you delivered drugs to earlier. He approaches you.
"You could help me out with something, if you got time of course." He asks politely.
"Ah, yer back." the drug dealer says, and smiles with his crooked teeth. "Ye up fer some combat? I gots a foe I want t'see dead."
