Chapter 17 - The Debrune (Patreon)

"I just went over the information you got about the mercenaries and it mentions something about the Debrune," Riker told me.

I nodded in recognition. I'd never heard that word before talking to the bartender, or if I had I'd failed to remember it. I'd put it in the report just in case it was important, and as it turned out it had been a smart thing to do.

"The closest Debrune outpost is on Barradas III," Riker continued.

Again, this meant nothing to me.

"It was abandoned nearly two thousand years ago," the Commander said. "The Debrune were an ancient offshoot of the Romulans, so the mercenaries are probably in the artifacts trade, the looting of ruins and so on. There can be a lot of money in that.”
