# Arbitrator Abduction Investigation

-[Commissioner Neve Comata](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/page/commissioner-neve-comata "Commissioner Neve Comata") contracted KG-Co to locate those behind the kidnappings of her Arbitrators and put an end to their activities. She seconded one of her own special agents, [Arbitrator Shiv](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/page/arbitrator-shiv "Arbitrator Shiv"), to aid us in this endeavor.

-Prior to this request, Comata was granted classified intel concerning the activities of the [DeWonti Trade Consortium](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/chapter/dewonti-trade-consortium-absent "DeWonti Trade Consortium"), specifically those of [Lady von Tarquinius](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/page/lady-navigator-mitereska-von-tarquinius "Lady Mitereska von Tarquinius") and her agents, the [Procuratia](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/major-investigations-heavy-encryption/page/procuratia "Procuratia") and [Clan Pelnikt](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-factions/page/clan-pelnikt "Clan Pelnikt"). This was due to recorded evidence that her people were being abducted by this group.

-Comata's own investigations and capture of a voidborn thug yielded information concerning their failsafe detonation mechanism; record of the frequency used to detonate the charge was recorded and given to us, allowing us to jam the signal if need be during interrogation.

-Investigation of DeWonti's communications via contacts in the [Comutotitron Chapel](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-locations/page/comutotitron-chapel "Comutotitron Chapel"), decoded by the [cryptographic keys ](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/keojrah-glynt-assets/page/assets-against-lady-von-tarquinius "Oppositional Resources")gained in the [Fungal Farm](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-locations/page/defunct-fungal-farmdewonti-base "Defunct Fungal Farm/DeWonti Base") raid, as well as investigation of the crime scene lead to [Spire Sabbat](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-locations/page/sabbat "Sabbat"), specifically Distribution Center Tertius 33. Clan Pelnikt agents were identified and neutralized upon arrival; Arbitrator Shiv's incapacitation of one such agent allowed us an opportunity to gain additional information. Given their resistance to interrogation, Ambassador Lethe engineered a false rescue of this individual to learn the location of their base of operations, a defunct arbites facility called the [Old Fort](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/asterion-locations/page/the-old-fort "The Old Fort").

-The Old Fort contained the captured Arbitrators, as well as a Procuratia. [Logis Eizen](https://kgco.AspenArkive.com/books/keojrah-glynt-assets/page/magos-logis-eizen-wakes-c53 "Logis Eizen VIIR C-53") was able to converse with Lady von Tarquinius briefly via this proxy, though the Navigator was careful to reveal little information beyond affirming her knowledge of the Keojrah-Glynt Company's activities, her interest in gaining psykers, and allusions to greater plans for the future. The Procuratia and the thugs were dispatched; though there were casualties among the abducted arbitrators, and significant injuries dealt to personnel, the operation can be considered a success in halting one of the Lady Navigator's operations on the planet.

-A Field Generator was recovered from the scene, with potential to reproduce the technology and create a working containment field.
