18 Jun 2017Torrente
Well, this is some well deserved rest we got, I made 85% ranger today as I cashed in the data from my last month of travel. Next step is the formidable Fort Mug and, of course Colonia, to return to Paras coveting finally the Elite Explorer wings.I get terrible rumors from the bubble though. Travellers and newsreels talking about aliens! Thargoids? Goodness, I thought these were old stories from when I was young, but... I'll be glad to answer the call when the Empire calls to arms. I know them feds are gun-ho ready to give them hell, but we'll see. If they're hostile, we'll fight.
In the meantime I'm preparing a few profitable detours before I reach Colonia, scan a few black holes, neutron stars, and redefining my policy of scanning bodies. I really need the recover the money... But so far, the journey is quite profitable. I'm glad I took it.
