Months on the drift, zigzagging through Sirius like a ghost in the void. Every jump gate, every jump hole, they're the threads stitching this patchwork universe together for me. Started in Liberty, where the targets were tagged "dead or alive" by the suits running the show. The payday's sweet, but with strings attached. The hunt's the thing that keeps my engines roaring, even if it means brushing up against the line between the law and the long arm of the corporations.
The outer edges came next, the Omicrons—Alpha, Beta, and beyond. Corsairs in my sights, always on the move, each jump pushing me deeper into the underbelly of Sirius. The rules shift out here. It's a dance in the dark, where survival's more than just a skill—it's an instinct, a gut feeling that guides your finger on the trigger or your hand away from it.
As I carve these words into my ship's console, I'm struck by the tapestry of it all. Liberty's shiny towers, the Outcasts' rocky lairs, Corsairs' elusive trails—it's all etched into my ship, my soul. The coin's good and the satisfaction's even better, but in those quiet seconds between jumps, it's the infinite possibilities of the stars that keep me pushing forward.
So here I am, riding the universe's pulse, always ready for what's next.
