[hider=The quarantine zone(The Far Rim)]For almost all space faring races The quarantine zone has been off limits. Prior to this universal ban ships that have passed and gone beyond the established "Safe Zone" have mysteriously vanished only hours from the relay and the nearby outpost.

*Several seconds of some unknown language before the message cuts out*
*the sounds of movements before the Message is ended.*
 [/hider] We here have yet to understand the language of the message, but what we have discovered is that the screeching sound was some sort of complex digital code perhaps thousands of years before modern discovery of the relays[/hider]
