In a galaxy far far away, there was a lone cruiser-class ship flying through the depths of space. This part of the outer rim was lawless, and untamed. Certain factions had restrictions on piracy, but many did not. Chief among them were the Ostrin.
The Ostrin had spent centuries as a slave species, up until the civil war that split the Galactic Sovereign in two. In the chaos if war, there was nothing stopping an Ostrun radical posthumously called "The Martyr" from starting a slave rebellion. While the martyr died early in the uprising, their death was a spark that caused the Ostrin to boom, retaking their resource-rich planet and entering a new age.
The sight of an Ostrin ship was not a pleasant one. So, as an Ostrin warship approached the little lonely it was a surprise to the warship's crew that the cruiser neither tried to escape, nor attempt communication. So, after a quick scan of the ship, the Ostrin set about boarding the smaller spaceship.
The crew found that the ship was empty. There wasn't even a crew, as the ship was set to autopilot, headed to an unknown location. Eventually, the ten-man sweep team found another peculiarity. A single active statis pod. Naturally, as this was the closest thing to spoils the little detour onto this ship had brought, the team deactivated the pod. There was a hiss for several seconds as it depressurized, then the hatch opened, revealing a human female inside.
The woman was met by ten aliens in armor and helmets, aiming rifles at her. One of them lowered their weapon and nodded to the others. "Bring her back to the captain. We'll finish sweeping the ship." Another Ostrin nodded and approached the woman, carrying a pair of polished silver cuffs. The alien locked them onto the woman's wrists and the cuffs immediately magnetized, sticking together and refusing to let go. The alien led the girl away, keeping the weapon ready in case the smaller human somehow posed a threat.
