A recent Galnet news story in Elite Dangerous reported a peaceful encounter between a commander and a Thargoid Interceptor in an unexpected location. Independent commanders have begun investigating the area and discovered Guardian sites, hinting at upcoming developments in the game’s storyline.
In a recent Galnet news story in Elite Dangerous, a commander reported being hyperdicted by a Thargoid Interceptor. This encounter stood out because of its location and peaceful nature, as there were no casualties. The encounter took place 1500 light years southeast of Seoul, far from known Thargoid territory. The news piece warned civilians to stay away from the region until more information is known.
Following the news, independent commanders started investigating the mentioned location, Rigo ga-x b3-0, which is devoid of any planets. Commander Marina Oatmeal discovered several Thargoid and Guardian signals on planet 1C of the Rigo bu-1b2-0 system. The Guardian sites found there are similar to a previous discovery in the trapezium sector, containing remnants and wreckage from an ancient Guardian conflict. When activated, these sites yield Guardian blueprints.
While no further encounters or sites have been reported, a previously unknown permit-locked system, the coal 121 system, was found about 300 light years away from the search zone. Its close proximity to the incident raises suspicions. Given recent events involving the Guardian storyline, such as the uploading of consciousness by Caleb’s Salvation, this discovery hints at upcoming events and story developments.
It is possible that this area and the permit-locked system may play a significant role in future narratives and events in the game. Players are eagerly awaiting Thursday’s server cycle for potential updates. Any new information will be shared on the YouTube channel where the video was posted.
