Gary Oilheart really is pleased to see me, you think to yourself as you sip a drink.

"Comfortable? Good!" says Gary Oilheart.
"Now - some bozos have been building a Ganglinite research station over in Twirl and Twist.
It's not that the competition bothers me, mind you. No sir! I just don't want anyone getting hurt!
Ganglinite is dangerous stuff, definitely not for pretty amateurs!"

"You could really do me - and them! - a big favor by removing their fledgling research facility.
But first, we need to see exactly what they are up to.
Pop into Twirl and Twist and quickly evaluate their defenses before we strike.
Return right away and we'll decide on the next step."

You return to the docking bay, only to find Gary Oilheart pacing about nervously.

"Ah, Demon Hunter! Just the person I wanted to see!
Despite your worthy efforts, these fools have continued their research.
They just don't know what's good for them!
What's more, they've rebuilt their research station - this time in Twin Giants.
I'm afraid they've taken greater care in setting up defensive measures as well."

He sighs. "Alas...we tried to be nice about it, but these people are simply problematic.
See what you can do, Demon Hunter!"

Gary Oilheart fumbles through his purse.

Don't ask me how I got it. Good luck to you!"

Koto Research is practically destroyed, and scientific freedom abounds once again! Although..."

Gary Oilheart glances worriedly at you.
"There is one slight issue...it would seem that Koto Research contacted Earthforce,
and they might have dispatched a few Cadets to investigate your recent,
ah, 'foray' into scientific research...but,
