Rare traders on rare route.

Received a word from Varati few days back. Gnosis will be needing an escort ship with the approaching thargoids on the horizon and random pirate groups trying breach our flagships defenses. 
Solution was to get as many Canonn pilots to fly a trade caravan, pick up some rare commodities on the way and make profit. While pilots did get the most of the money, small portion of each trade profit was directed towards a used Farragut battle cruiser that would be escorting Gnosis in the future.
Seemed like a good goal and off I went to 39 Tauri to join the Canonn pilots. But all I found was CMDR Engalo. Where were everyone else? No idea.
Didn't go as expected, but atleast we had a good time. Got fined once for drunken piloting in ... can't even remember which station it was. What I do remember is that Kongga Ale isn't that bad.
After three days of rare goods trading was over, we used all the funds collected to buy a new escort ship for Gnosis...and could only afford a rusty old sidewinder with damaged drives. Atleast there was enough money to refuel her even if she didn't get an escort.
Time to focus on the next task at hand. Dr.Arcanonn wants me to make friends with Pi Mensae brotherhood. The word is that they have some artefacts in their possession and I will be investigating if this holds true or not.
(image of Gnosis was borrowed from the google search results and there was never an intention that there would be a farragut escorting Gnosis... atleast yet)
