Deep, dark emtiness
04 Sep 2018Macdaniel
I feel it every day now. From the moment I open my irritated eyes until I finally close them again to escape the questionable existence for a few hours. More money than I can spend. Ships that can take me to the edge of the known universe and beyond. And yet my soul is filled with emptiness, darker than I found it in the remotest places of the Milky Way.Not for long, and I've achieved my final goal. My Imperial contacts in Codorain are well positioned and provide me with orders that should make it easier for me to gain the rank of King in the Imperial Fleet. Nothing but daily repetitive transports and the hunt for pirates who have crossed the fine red line. Cannon fodder. But what happens then?
I still can't overcome supporting the bug hunt. My AX ship, the Badger, is slowly getting rusty, but I couldn't get myself through more than a few test runs with her. Exploring the Guardians to get weapons to kill Thargoids? Self-explanatory.
Maybe I should go find some company after all. Maybe it's someone elses goals that will let me put me back into the pilot seat with more enthusiasm. And perhaps they are those very goals in that I find my destiny.
