A Personal Achievement in Dryman's Point
31 Jan 2020Pisodeuorrior
I've flown East straight as an arrow and crossed the border into Dryman's Point in a reasonably short time.I've also already intersected my previous route and turned South towards the Bubble.
Almost exactly at the point of intersection I hit a personal milestone.
1 million light years travelled, who would have thought.
Anyway, one feature I had forgotten about Dryman's Point is that it's packed full of Notable Stellar Phenomena.
Literally every other jump I come across a signal that I feel compelled to investigate. The vast majority of them are Peduncle Trees (I think I've scanned a thousand of them), but I also found a Metallic Crystal, which wasn't yet in my Codex.
The progress is slower with all these sites to scan, but I guess that's the whole point of exploring. I just wished there were more variety, and maybe a new discovery or two.
I think I tend to be more impatient when I start smelling home, although I might have decided to take a long detour before I actually make it to the Bubble.
More on this some other time.
