CMND Log 017: Eurybia
25 Sep 2018Switch Killington
Not much to report lately. I've been laying low with the Blue Mafia and keeping busy with some occasional money making endeavors. A few tours for the mafia, some pirating on the side, and some slave trading, but nothing really noteworthy. The big scores these past few weeks haven't really piqued my interest. I didn't want to cater a presidential gala, I certainly didn't want to support the Thargod cult. In fact, I would have hit a few of those traders out of the sky, but the heat was too much, and chances are those few traders that sold thargoid parts to the cult probably blew them out of the sky, so in a round about way the cult actually was supporting pilots to kill their would be god, savior, idol things.That's another thing I don't get. Religions are strange enough when it is something ethereal or supernatural, but Thargoids are a race of biological beings that want us dead. It's like if you get into a war with another faction, and you started thinking they were wizards. In time the Alliance will handle it themselves, with one president wanting to murder the sect even if the other one won he would still have to appease his citizens in some way.
This isn't an op-ed though, this is a activity log, so back on topic. I'm going to continue operating with a subdued capacity and re-examine my pirating target systems. I've been hitting agri-systems but just not getting good scores, last round the most lucrative were technical blueprints. I'd make more money faster just shipping slaves wholesale to Eurybia, and it would be safer too. Maybe I'll hit extraction systems for some raw resources. We'll see.
