The Recall of the Pirates was an event in Orion history, when the early Orion pirate forces were summoned to the defense of their homeworld of Rigel VIII (Botchok) during the Orion War for their independence. The Recall was issued to provide the planet with a space fleet, sometime after August 95 BCE (reference stardate -20/9508) Legend would have Nallin the Unconquerable be the only one to send it, but he was not: many Orions knew that a war for their very survival was imminent.
