Miskatonic University Galactic Expedition 3303 - Day 2
21 Aug 2017LCU No Fool Like One
I woke up this morning feeling thoroughly exhausted and dispirited. I slept fitfully waking through the night from strange dreams in a cold sweat. I crawled out of my pit and had a stomach churning breakfast in the commissary which I lost almost immediately.I resolved to leave the station as soon as possible. So you can imagine my despair when I discovered a fault in my FSD that meant I was unable to get underway.
I at least had some good news. I was able to persuade the Dean to visit our benefactor Shrub Rocketeer Senior to wish him a speedy recovery. Though completely delerious from his mysterious malady he was able to sign off the deeds on a gold plated python over to the faculty. As soon as the Dean transmitted the details I procured a transfer of the ship to this station. So I may yet be able to travel in some comfort.
With no travel possible today I spend the remainder of my day attempting to secure a permit for Polaris. So far my polite requests have been met with silence but I shan't give up. Me may yet be able to unlock the mysteries of that star before the expedition is over.
So far no sign of the missing students or Professor Lake for that matter though I have heard rumours that students have been beset by accidents that have delayed their travel plans. Pehaps they are lucky to have stayed away. How I dread spending another febrile night on this station.
