Drup II - A report of the dire condition of the syphilitic [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] of Drup is going viral throughout the galactic south. Sadly, during the excitement of the [[Hosnian (Sector)|Hosnian system]] the plight of these migrant [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] has been overlooked.

Some background is needed to fully understand the current situation, so we begin several months ago with the introduction of the Decadence-Class Pleasure Yacht. It is rumored that the Pirate King himself, [[Squall Chitose]], had a hand in the design of this wonderful craft. In his joy at his acquisition of the first Decadence [[Squall Chitose|Squall]] began a month’s long binge filled with alcohol and debauchery. 
 
During this bender [[Squall Chitose|Squall]] made his way to the rapidly growing planet of Sevarcos X. [[Carl Warrington]], the magistrate of Sevarcos X, welcomed [[Squall Chitose|Squall]] and his party yacht to the planet. [[Carl Warrington|Carl]], preoccupied with the construction of Sevarcos X, neglected to monitor the Pirate King’s actions and left [[Squall Chitose|Squall]] to his own devices.

[[Eidola Pirates|Eidola]] is well known for providing free healthcare to the galaxy, and as such, part of the role of the magistrate of an [[Eidola Pirates|Eidola]] world is to ensure that their planet is well stocked with the necessary medical supplies. In a meeting with his surgeon general, [[Carl Warrington|Carl]] was shocked to discover that the planet was completely out of Ugnaught antibiotics. An investigation soon uncovered that [[Squall Chitose|Squall]] had managed to infect over 90% of the planet’s [[Ugnaught]] population with syphilis.
 
[[Carl Warrington|Carl]] called [[Syn]] requesting emergency medical relief in the face of the syphilis outbreak. The response from the Pirate Queen was curt and to the point. “[[Squall Chitose|Squall]] did what? Again?! No, no [[Eidola Pirates|Eidola]] has no interest paying to cure millions of additional [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] of syphilis!”.

With the [[Ugnaught]] population protesting loudly, [[Carl Warrington|Carl]] was forced to consult with his trusted counterpart, [[Argon Nightwish]]. The two formed a plan to smuggle the syphilitic [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] from Sevarcos X to the nearby system of [[Drup (System)|Drup]] in hopes that the [[Zann Consortium]] would willingly accommodate the [[Ugnaught]] refugees.
 
[[Argon Nightwish]] and [[Carl Warrington|Carl]] quickly loaded their [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1s]] with raw materials and headed to [[Carl Warrington|Carl's]] seven cities on Drup 2. The plan was to pack these cities with hotels, offices, and taverns for the syphilitic [[Ugnaught]] masses to live peacefully, well beyond the reach of the deviant Pirate King.
 
Construction of over 200 hotels, 53 offices, and 43 taverns commenced immediately. For several days it appeared that the [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] would have a place to live and would have a government to provide medical supplies. But the peace was not to last.
 
It was to the great shock of all parties that when [[Zann Consortium|Zann]] realized what had happened, they reacted violently against the migrant [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] and the builders who were tasked with constructing their cities. Over 700 builders (most of them Drup citizens) have been slaughtered by [Zann Consortium|Zann]] agents and shields are under construction to keep out the flow of [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]]. Fortunately, the vast majority of these facilities were completed before [[Zann Consortium|Zann]] agents were able to stop them, and most of the [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] were able to immigrate before they could be detained. At last count 114,873,681 syphilitic [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] have migrated to Drup 2 and more will undoubtedly follow in spite of [[Zann Consortium|Zann’s]] best efforts. 
 
When contacted for comments on their hostility toward the needy of the galaxy, [Zann Consortium|Zann]] leaders informed Carl that they reacted violently because of [[Carl Warrington|Carl]] and [[Argon Nightwish|Argon’s]] construction of a “disgusting amount of hotels.” While the appropriateness of the number of hotels is certainly debatable, the quality of these residences is not. As the builders worked in haste due to fear of execution, the construction quality of these facilities is nothing short of atrocious. [[Carl Warrington]] was heard saying “I’m glad these hotels aren’t on Sevarcos X; many of them don’t even have bathrooms.” Indeed, Drup news agencies have reported multiple incidents of [[Ugnaught]] feces clogging the street. A rain storm reportedly led to what has been called “an avalanche of [[Ugnaught]] shit”. The squalor of the dwellings Carl and Argon constructed is being widely blamed for the 2% drop in planetary morale and 1% increase in planetary crime rates in less than a week. Undoubtedly these numbers will deteriorate further. 
 
The plight of the [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]] has become far worse since leaving the friendly skies of Sevarcos; it is now the duty of all beings in the galaxy to help these [[Ugnaught|Ugnaughts]]. Consider donating to the [[Ugnaught]] Treatment Initiative (UTI) to help these diseased and pitiable creatures. Donations can be sent directly to [[Carl Warrington]] or [[Argon Nightwish]] and will be used to defray the cost of smuggling medical supplies past [Zann Consortium|Zann]] agents. Carl and Argon are also exploring more drastic options such as selling the newly constructed dwellings to more capable hands as the situation has clearly spiraled out of control.
 
Thank you for your attention. This situation is still evolving and we urge you to keep abreast of this developing crisis. #savetheughnaughts #giveUTI #neverforget
