Nightmare on Rackham's peak

22 Dec 2021Anantyanta
So this started when I was exploring body 3 in HIP 58832, aka Rackham's Peak.
And maybe, just maybe I should start to cut back of my intake of Helix. Or stop mixing it with other stuff...
On that planet, a Sidewinder stuck in an impossible angle out of a hill; around it, power regulators where floating, and its dead pilot was floating, as well.



Maybe I should have jumped back to the Alethkar immediately and slept in my luxury cabin until I was clear in the head again...

Instead, I went back to the station to get a stiff drink at the bar. Here's where the horror started in earnest...
I reached the express lift and took it to the bar; when leaving, I just scudding fell through the station!




I landed in the social space, but on the ground floor (not where the elevators are). And I was totally alone... I could even get my drink from the bar myself and could have taken whatever I wanted from the Pioneer store, since neither bartender nor shopkeeper were there.





The station morphed around me... paths appeared and disappeared!







Then this creepy guy suddenly showed up - just look at these eyes! One moment he was there, the next he was gone...





That's when I found the poor bastards from the compound, even the terminals... all mashed together. Terrible sight.



I guess something in my head decided I had enough, because I blacked out (strange... second time within 2 days!...); when I opened my eyes again, everything was back to normal.

Yes, I had heard that the void sickness hits hard out here, and some commanders will never return back to civilisation, but I always thought that would not be something I experience myself...
