Mission Overview: Preparations for Sol Evacuation Efforts
Commander's Log:
The galaxy stirs in a way unseen for centuries. This morning, an urgent missive from the Pilots' Federation cut through the quiet monotony of trade routes and solo excursions: Titan Cocijo is en route to the Sol system. The cradle of humanity stands at the brink of devastation.
The directive was clear—evacuate as many civilians as possible before the Thargoid menace arrives. Temporary permits to Sol have been granted to all, an unprecedented gesture underscoring the gravity of the situation.
As I read the message, I reached out to my brother, Squadron Commander Ramforth. Together, we crafted a call to arms for the Galactic Vikings. In this moment, our creed compels us to act—not just for glory, but to shield the foundation of human history itself. Our people may be independent, but our hearts beat with the heritage of the stars.
Orders have been issued: retrofit all capable ships with passenger cabins, prioritize civilian evacuation, and stand ready to defend our shared legacy. The GalVik INNHERRED has mobilized as a staging platform, as has the GalVik STEINKJER.
Acting on our orders, I procured and outfitted a Krait Mk II for passenger transport. The vessel has performed admirably despite two harrowing encounters with Thargoid interceptors, which claimed the lives of 16 evacuees. These tragedies have underscored the urgency of further engineering the ship for speed and resilience.
As I make the final adjustments, I can't help but reflect on the magnitude of this task. We are not only saving lives but preserving the legacy of those who first dared to venture beyond Earth's atmosphere. The Galactic Vikings stand united, ready to fight, to endure, and to prevail—for Sol, for humanity, and for the stars.
