Rumors are spreading on the Ring about Zero Company's newfound prosperity. People are asking questions. Bennic strictly forbids us from sharing any details of our deal with Republic Intelligence, but agrees we should get ahead of the gossip. What do we tell people?

BKeep our mouths shut. Eventually, it'll blow over.
Our operators said nothing. It took a while, but eventually the locals lost interest.
CSpread rumors to throw people off the scent. Let's change the conversation.
