+''Styled'' will give a cover story.  Morbius arrived in this system and recognized that the lost colony in it was undergoing plagues of unknown origin.  Morbius is attempting to provide aid, but is desperate for help.  Can the visting vessel come help immediately?  This is all to get the vessel to come further into the system, away from the N/2 boundary, and give more time for interception.
 Should a vessel escape, or be able to fight off the mining vessels in some fashion, Smoking Mirror will implement an alternate plan; all of its agents on Dous Facil will eradicate themselves, fusion bombs will go off in their main hq's.  Etc.  The goal is to leave little or no trace of what happened.  ''Styled'' will rewrite its own logic to appear to have gone insane.

 This is the Dous Facil system.  The star is called Ti Wouj.  The planets are: Nwa, Dlo Beny, Chofe Fou, Dous Facil, Le Konjele, Nej.
-This world was, up until very recently, a fractious world of many independent tribes and cultures, all at roughly Tech Index 7, packed onto a relatively small number of archipelagos and shallow undersea settlements.   However, 10 years ago Morbius Metals set up a surreptitious seed network and began infiltrating human and Nghorrach staff into the system.  Since that time, they have begun to convert the local populace to Smoking Mirror.  Responsible governments on Dous Facil recognize something strange is going on, but haven't yet realized the full scope of the threat.  Three Jirangan Pelangi vessels have arrived in that time, and been coopted by Smoking Mirror.  They are currently in route to other systems, but will take years to arrive as they are travelling sublight.
