Returning Home 04.02.3307

Personal log Galactic date 04.02.3307It's been a long run. I've spent the better part of three decades exploring the black. I even spent quite some time plying my trade in the Colonia region. But I felt it was time to return home to the Bubble. I've spent enough time wandering and wondering and though I still feel the need to take a trip to explore Beagle Point, I think it's best I grow up some and get involved in some of the politics in the core systems.
My ancestors, going back thousands of years have been explorers, adventurers and military men. I started my military service in aviation maintenance as a young man on Earth, constantly preparing for war. But then I had the opportunity to get a taste for exploration and earn my place as a commander on a Panther Clipper ship. Amazing and massive machines. But it wasn't to last. The ship became a derelict after a large pirate attack and I and my crew barely escaped with our lives. With some effort, I managed to hitch a few rides back to Sol and fell back on my maintenance skills.
I took my skills into the private sector and worked with a minor transport line and then finally working for a small company specializing in modifying pleasure craft. After my maintenance career was put behind me two decades ago I was able to work my way back into a small ship, and take to the space lanes again. Seeing pirate activity had not lessened, I chose to head to the black and explore the back water systems far out. I eventually came across inhabited space in the Colonia region and chose to hang there for a while. I got to see some of the largest stars, black holes, massive planets and crazy life forms. I even managed to escape a Thargoid attack.
A month or so ago I got back to the bubble and was able to return with a small fleet of ships at my disposal. The long trip from Colonia back to the Bubble was made easier thanks to a Fleet Carrier operated by CMDR Astro and CMDR Dunkle Aura. It's now time to get to work, and help make this galaxy a better place.
