Entry 14: My First Ship
15 Feb 2020Worldbuilder92
Current System: Nanabozho, Lamarck OrbitalAfter some time spent running between Metet and Dreia, I finally saved up enough to get a proper ship and leave the training grounds. I'm quite confident that I'll be able to handle myself, once I find a stable trading hub; I still don't know for sure whether or not to move towards Aisling Duval's space or to head back in the general vicinity of the New Pilot's Initiative. For now, familiarity has won me over; I have friends in the NEWP alliance, and Whitson Hub seems like a decent spot for an aspiring trader to begin.
Then again, I could start off the journey towards Colonia, after I properly upgrade my ship...hmm...
I did meet up with Cmdr Nirakoji, the commander of the Ordo Corona Stellarum. He's a rather fun and charismatic individual, reminds me alot of my old friend Dalvon in his style of mentoring. We met up after I stepped foot out of the newbie grounds, and he joined me on taking the Mobula on its maiden flight; said it was his first time riding shotgun on a ship! After the flight, we discussed maybe meeting up again once I find a proper trading hub and having him run escort for my cargo runs. I've never flown with an escort before~!
In any case, we'll have to plan that out later. For now, I'm taking the slow road to Whitson Hub to look for trade routes...
