Knights Errant Investigations has offices on most Western Alliance worlds. They recruit local talent so there’s always people ready to look at a problem who have local knowledge of the area. The more prosperous offices hand out fancy cars with the Knights Errant certificates. The poorer ones hand out junkyard specials if they’re lucky. They are the Knights Errant that most people see in real life, and like most people they rarely leave the planet or moon of their birth. The trick is that these local Knights Errant are the ones in charge of any investigation in their area. K.E.I. wanted all of their Knights Errant to be perfectly happy to call in support, so a local Knight Errant does not lose control of their investigation when they do it. It’s an interesting hierarchy, and seems to work well for the Knights Errant if their success rate is anything to go by.
