21 JUL 3308: CMDR Dawnstar: Respite

I'm back. I wanted to do another one of these sooner but I've been a little busy. The fighting in HIP 22460 is getting more intense with each passing day. More and more Commanders come into the system every day as the Thargoid presence increases. Most of them come to lend a hand with the defense of the system while some come to stand with the bugs. I'll never be able to wrap my head around how a Thargoid sympathizer thinks, not after what I've seen. These bug huggers have been assaulting pilots mid conflict, helping the goids get a foothold in these engagements. I may not be totally on board with the genocide of an entire species, nor am I certain of the Thargoids motivations behind their attacks. Frankly, I've pulled too many damaged escape pods and people on the brink of death from a burning space station to give them the benefit of the doubt. If I'm not out here to assist in the removal of the bugs from the galaxy, I'm certainly trying to do my part in saving as many as I can in the conflicts out here.
Almost out of necessity I've been assisting with the efforts of AXI. These ace anti-xeno commanders have saved my bacon a number of times in the last week. Whether it from bugs or bug lovers. Recently, due to the increase of xeno sympathizers, they established the AXDF. A group of ace pilots who patrol the system protecting anti-xeno fighters from these individuals who would disrupt their efforts in the fight against the Thargoids. Also, with the assistance and guidance from AXI members my skills have been improving. I even helped take down two cyclops and a basilisk in my Eagle MKII. Now that was exhilarating.
Salvations efforts are in their final stages. He says in less than a week his super weapon will be sufficiently charged to use against the bugs. Now, I don't know how well this weapon of his is going to work but my gut tells me it's not going to end well. I have this nagging suspicion this is all going to blow up in our faces. Come what may you can be certain of one thing, I'll be here when it all goes down. I guess we'll see what happens.
Anyway... It's time I get back to the grind. Until Next time.
