The Seven’s Brothel

26 January YC 127

“Good morning, Ms Voiras,” I said, walking into Level 2 agent’s office, “I was getting bored and thought that maybe you could provide some entertainment in a form of a security mission to me.”

Ozanero raised her eyes from the datapad and for a moment something like disappointment flickered on her face. The expression was gone in a heartbeat and was replaced with professional friendliness.

“Good morning, Mr Korff,” replied the agent, “let me check my backlog.”

She tapped the datapad a few times and stared at it for a few seconds as if it offended her. Then she swiped the screen with a nervous gesture and glared at it some more. That continued for a couple of minutes after which Ozanero irritably moved the datapad aside and mumbled under her breath, “To hell with politics. I’ve got job to do.” Continue reading “The Seven’s Brothel”

Guristas Watch

Lonetrek region — Okela constellation
Tsuguwa system

6 January YC 127

After bidding the bitter-sweet farewell to Purkkoken I was in no rush to get a new mission from Caldari Navy. Although there was a grain of truth in what he said about the inadequate mission briefs, I felt that he was treated too harshly. On the other hand, if that failing was seen as a reason for the escalating tension between Caldari and Gallente, Purkkoken’s superiors had no choice but to take some disciplinary action. I wanted my contradictory emotions to settle before I would approach a Caldari Navy agent again.

When I shared my thoughts with Aura, she nodded and said, “By one measure, it’s actually a good thing that you have finished with level 1 missions. Have you checked your AIR career program lately?” Continue reading “Guristas Watch”

27 December YC 126

I was planning another Okela patrol when I realised that I didn’t have a Heron in case I find a sleeper cache.

“Shopping time!” I called out, waking up Aura.

“Again?” she said, surprised, and added hastily, “Not that I object.”

“We have run out of Herons, remember?” I said, loading the capsule into an Ibis and undocking.

“Indeed. Why are you in a corvette, by the way?” Continue reading “What’s in a Name – Poke”

“Anything new and interesting for me?” I asked Purkkoken Honuken, making myself comfortable in his visitor chair.

“Actually, yes,” said the agent, “I have something new but I am not sure how interesting you will find it. Remember that ambassador evacuation mission?”

“Oh, yes. Have you figured out what Caldari Embassy was doing in Caldari space in a station called Caldari Consul?” Continue reading “What’s in a Name – Smile When You Call Me That”

Limited Sleeper Cache – Second Attempt

Limited Sleeper Cache Site

Iidoken system

16 December YC 126

Today, instead of asking Purkkoken for a mission, I decided to do another Okela constellation patrol. I started in a Buzzard and jumped from star to star scanning the signatures. In Jouvulen (again!) I found a Lesser Guristas Covert Research Facility and nearly lost my ship there. I hacked a Lab container which yielded less than 3,000,000 ISK, and was considering hacking another one when guards appeared! Luckily, my reflexes and align time were good enough to escape unscathed.

I then proceeded through other systems in the constellation until I reached Iidoken. There were two cosmic signatures, one of which appeared to be a Limited Sleeper Cache. The second one was extremely hard to scan down. I had to manually joggle the probes into a tighter formation, and when the signal strength finally reached 100% I discovered that it was a Superior Sleeper Cache!

Stubborn Dwarf Test Results

Region B-R00007 – Constellation B-C00057
System J104515

22 September YC 123

I have finished scanning the last signature in the system – it turned out to be another wormhole – and cheered.

“What are you so happy about?” asked Aura. “This is the second system that we have tried to explore today and it is as empty as the first one – no relic sites, no data sites, no nothing!”

“You are wrong – it’s not a second system, it’s fiftieth. And this is exactly why I am so happy.”

Aura frowned, “Fiftieth from what?” Continue reading “Stubborn Dwarf Test Results”

“Good morning, Captain! Always a pleasure to see you,” said Aura, with a hint of sarcasm in her voice, responding to my call.

“Um, hello,” replied I.

We looked at each other silently for a while.

“Well?” said Aura.

“Well…” said I.

Aura made an impatient grimace, “Are you going to say anything?”

I stepped back from the commlink, puffed my chest and slightly turned my head to the right, all the while maintaining eye contact with Aura. Trying to do it all at once, I nearly lost my balance but quickly restored the pose.

I guess, my awkward manoeuvres looked pretty funny from Aura’s point of view, as she snorted and said, “Why are you shuffling like a shy kid?” Then her eyes grew wide and she exclaimed, “Hold on! What’s that?” pointing at my chest.

I blushed, “It’s… a medal. I mean medals?”

“I see they are medals. I mean what are they for? Or did you buy them at a second-hand, or,” she giggled, “rather a second-chest auction?” Continue reading “Thera Scanning Fit”
