2**the wing

I couldn’t help wondering what was so important that we would jump so far to this lawless system. CMDR Arid was unusually tight lipped about what was going on. Other than Arid and myself we had two others from the wing tag along for the trip. There was CMDR StarWalkingSage in the Solome's Light, a very philosophical man who believed himself a warrior sage more than a cut throat bounty hunter. He resembled a large dwarf link in the bold text files kids read and he fought just a hard as they do in their lore. His Fer-De-Lance was a monster of a gun boat too, fast and could take a beating like no other.
The other to follow CMDR Arid wad CMDR Manyiakk in the Kestrel and he was one tough SOB. Someone told me he was an old Federation pilot and medic who came to hate the Federation’s philosophies and treatment of its people. He won a beat up Imperial Clipper in a poker game with a drunk imperial Duke that he has turned, over the years, into a force to be reckoned with. All I know is that if I saw that red hull streak across my helm I’d find God fast.
These ships are nothing compared to CMDR Arid’s Federal Corvette. No one knows what he found out there in the Rift but whatever it was earned him the influence to swindle one of the pride flag ships of the Federal Navy from the Federation. Now that 900 Ton monster is outfitted with the strongest shields and turrets I’ve ever seen and is in the hands of the most battle ready commander I know.
