Tlacey Excavations

Tlacey's company

A small Umro subcontractor that stole its technologists' research and is luring them to their deaths.

Story so far

Tlacey Excavations is one of the smaller Umro subcontractors on RaviHyral, doing mineral research and technology development, run by a woman named Tlacey. It employed the collective of technologists, then abruptly terminated them and stole the strange-synthetics detection system they had been developing on the side, deleting the most recent version from their devices. Having apparently overheard them and overestimated how finished the work was, Tlacey now offers to return the files in exchange for the collective repaying their signing bonus in person, an offer Murderbot reads as bait for murder.

The company operates in a low-security region of RaviHyral where private weapons are common and killing rivals can be disguised as accidents.
