Rumor has is that early last week Nym called in on a long-time contract made between him and the those who run the factories in New Kestic. There was a significant increase in activity around the town all week although the mayor and CEO said very little about it. Instead she could be heard complaining about the recently reopened imperial precinct in the town.

Last night a large convoy of land vehicles was seen leaving New Kestic and heading north towards The Stronghold. From what was observed the main transport was driven by CEO Amandiona Masnachwr with HarlieBear providing protection and was surrounded by smaller vehicles driven by Root, Lynese Shysa and Arzesaeth' Ernebee. Later on reports came in of a series of conflicts occuring at key river crossings which are known to be controlled by the numerous pirate groups on Lok. The convoy was seen arriving at a back entrance to The Stronghold some hours later.

Today Nym seems to have a larger presence of droids and his followers seem to be better armed, including state of the art weaponry on their ships. Whether this is related to the recent increase in activity by the BWI pirate group remains unclear.
