New entry is here!Another entry unlocked. It comes from the year 3275, which is over a year after the last entry. It is very interesting to see the course of events from my father's perspective.
Last time my father was getting ready to go to the Pleiades nebula after several people allegedly witnessed a Thargoid presence in that area. He broke the promise he had made to my mother, but that was to be expected. If my memory is correct, he will continue to disappear like that many more times over the next few years.

I don't like it one bit. We've been wandering around in this sector for over a year, and not a single Thargoid in sight. However, every now and then Volt finds traces of their presence, or so he claims them to be that. With his enhanced discovery scanner, he can detect signals that we cannot see on our screens. Despite all of this special equipment, each time when we go to investigate a signal source, we ultimately find ourselves at the starting point. There are signals, but after reaching the source, we find nothing in place.
We'll be rolling out of this hell hole soon. Volt will continue to look for interesting signals while Monarch will scout planet surfaces. In the event of a Thargoid attack, Axe and I are ready to defend ourselves.
