As we keep getting good news from the Crab region, I am still worried what happened to all our friends there.But we have to keep working on our primairy mission. Build up forces....
Made an very interesting trip this week. I had no interest in smuggling this week, so I started flying around with my Python. During my scouting the nearby systems I was playing with the comms and for some reason I switched to an old coalition frequency.
I heard the voice of an old friend, and some other familiar callsigns were mentioned on the comms. It seems to me they were in a battle.
First I thought it was some kind of loop or ghost in the machine telling stories of old battles. But then I recognised some of the systemnames and they were closeby, no where near the Crab region. So I responded...
Dutch: "Drax, is that you?"
Drax: "This is Drax, who is this? Get of this comms, this is a battle frequency!"
Dutch: "It's me, Dutch!"
Drax: "Dutch? As in the Flying Dutchman?"
Dutch: "It is just TheDutch now. If I heard you correctly I am just one system away from you. You need assistance?"
Drax: "Not really, but feel free to join the fun. We are rounding up some pirates"
Dutch: "Didn't we used to be pirates? hahahaha, engaging FSD.... Be right there!"
After the fight me and Drax met at the local station. He introduced me to commander Fearion who was leading the local faction called Vortex Squadron. This group also had a lot of former rebels from the Crab region. Altho they were far better armed then the Sails we agreed on a coalition...
Could this be a start of a new Republic???
