Hello, Kiara,

Thank you for the message. I was relieved to see it, yet I still feel awful about what happened. There're also other things to consider now, so I guess it'd be best if I kept my distance for a while longer. Sorry, I'll just feel better this way. For the time being I plan to stay outside of Liberty. That's not to say that I feel so guilty that don't want to see you. In fact, if you ever end up in Kusari or the Sigmas, give me a call, and we could meet up to discuss things face to face, if you'd like.

As for how it has been: I ended up with all my ships on a Freeport in Omicron Theta. From there I went to Kusari and ran across Kiyoko (a KNF captain from our vacation, in case you don't remember). I ended up staying on New Tokyo for a while, occasionally doing some escort jobs or helping Kiyoko with patrols and information. The rest of my ships are still on the Freeport; during my trading days I've accumulated enough money to pay for hangars and maintenance.

To think of it, I haven't even played dice for I don't know how long. And it feels almost right. Anyway, as I was saying, I'll probably be on New Tokyo for a while. Maybe I'll end up in the Sigmas again, see if there's any work there. So far there haven't been too many jobs for me in Kusari; just enough to pay for my stay and whatever entertainment I could find on New Tokyo.

Anyway, I guess that's about it.

Regards,
Karin
