DUMBBELL NEBULA RUN - Alone time after Thargoid massacre
06 Aug 2019Mos Superum
=== BEGIN LOG ===Well -- here I am. Alone in the black. About 2am ship time.
I feel like I'm running, but -- I'm not. I just...
[sigh]
I need time to think after that Thargoid encounter the other day. I docked just a supercruise away from Farseer, Inc., snagged a used Diamondback Explorer and parked any and all combat ships. I just --
[pause]
-- I just wanna NOT THINK about that Thargoid massacring the tanker crew.
Call me a coward. Call me a pacifist. I'm just not ready to haul my ass up to the front lines and take on this alien threat.
Anyway -- the FNS Vaderland...
[pause]
...I got the idea listening to some explorer types turned xeno hunters at a bar in Gazda as I was outfitting the Vaderland. They had just come from an expedition out "west," and I picked up enough to do a little 'net search.
The Dumbbell Nebula. OK. Maybe it'll take my mind off that g'damn Thargoid and the tanker.
I hope so. I can't afford the nightmares out here. There's not a lot of room to go crazy in this little ship.
Alright -- time to turn in -- I need some rack time before I get back on this little adventure.
Sadly -- I will be on ANOTHER pitstop in a few hours. I flew out of the bubble without a surface scanner. I gotta pay for this therapy of light years somehow...
COVAS -- end log, please.
