This technical team from the mysterious organization was currently hiding within the territory of an Outer-Ring Civilization not far from the front line. This civilization had joined the Star Sea Alliance less than two thousand years ago. The location was originally remote, far from the main shipping lanes, nearly three hundred light-years from the nearest Star Gate and eighty light-years from the nearest Epoch Clan Garrison Point.
