[Deep Lanterns - Mass Effect Character 1]

A lone Systems Alliance Frigate sat outside of the boundary of the Terminus Systems. It was strange for a ship like this to be with out a group of other Frigates, a Wolf Pack as they were called.  It had been stalking the border for nearly a month now, only leaving when they needed to refuel and restock their stores.

The SSV Shiloh as it was called was on an important mission, at least important enough that they pulled the ships captain from his battle group and set him on this course. The Captain, an older man by the name of Christopher Garrett, paced back and forth behind his bridge crew, just waiting until they found something worth looking at.

"Three weeks. Three weeks of trying to catch these Blue Son-of-a-bitches. And all we got out of it is space dust!" he mumbled under his breath. What he was waiting for was a Blue Sun cargo ship, or anything with the Blue Sun markings on it. They had raided a ship carrying valuable resources and weapons that the Alliance needed on its fringe worlds and the last that was heard of them was they were heading for the Terminus systems.
