Eight years ago, the miners found something deep in the rock of an isolated rimworld. The anomaly granted some of them strange and horrifying powers. They overthrew the Sharpe Mining Corporation and claimed the mine for their own. In time, they converted it into a temple to a strange new creed. The Board of Directors has tired of these expenses and approved one final attempt to retrieve the object before they flatten both the mine and the neighboring company town of Sable with an orbital bombardment to constrain the spread of this cult.
When the freelancers touch down, they get to know the sorry souls stuck in the town, infiltrate the cult's sanctum filled with fanatical miner warriors and terrifying beasts, and learn why the locals whisper that these fanatics have... abilities considered unnatural.
