So, where to start. I had...one heck of a trip. I decided to take my first trip out to Colonia to work on getting my reputation up with the four engineers out there as God intended.By this I mean I pointed my nose in that direction and just kept going straight until I hit something.
This did end up with me taking a lot of wear and tear on the old girl, but the Dawntreader is as the name implies. Treads upon stars, and by stars I mean neutron stars once I got a communcation from a friend in the Buur Pit that the so called "Neutron Highway" was actually a thing. This turned into me figuring out how wake skimming worked which turned into me sputtering up into Colonia with a malfunctioning FSD and major damage to almost all subsystems. I mean, some of those stars looked like typhoons in space!
I digress though, almost a cool one-hundred million credits later, and I think it was worth the payoff. That paid for the Cobra MkIV I picked up while I was in the area as well as getting some work done with the engineers and obtaining copies of some blueprints to use in my own manufacturing bays that I am making rather liberal use of.
A quick ride back with Down to Earth Astronomy saw me back in the "Bubble" in time to start some defense contract work for the Galactic Summit.
Even if a pirate warlord just crashed the party.
Seems like my work might be cut out for me!
