Date: 30 May 819 System: New Berlin Location: Oder Shipyard, at the landing bay. Topic: A blessing in disguise.
I got robbed. Corruption! Sarah Braun was her name. A Feldwebel of the Rheinland Military...
Anyways, I should start from the very beginning:
My search for a contactman draw some attention on me, and my valuable load. You know - those alien remains, which are needed to construct those new cloaking devices. It's a race - "Who will be first, calling such device his own.". And I lost. Well, I thought I did. But listen:
I've meet some suspicious man at the bar on Kreuzberg. He told me about that newly constructed factory near Planet New Berlin, called Krupp Munitions. Rumors said, that it's the only base in Rheinland, having a cloaking device factory. But they had a lack of those 'Nomad brains', as they call them. In the end, the man arranged a meeting with some Rheinland Military Pilot for me.
A few hours later I've meet Frau Braun at the Oder Shipyard. She was a natural beauty with a slender stature and elegant curves, Blond (mixed with some red tone) long hairs and lime green eyes. I didn't know why, but I trusted her from the first moment on I've seen her. (A huge mistake!) However, she promised, that she'll help me, getting access to the Krupp's Cloaking Device factory as soon as the device will be finished. So I gave her those 'brains'. After that meeting, I've never seen her again. I was such a fool! Blinded by her appearance and her persuasive powers...
Anyways, that's the story how I nearly got access , to the well-protected factory, Krupp Munitions.
Krupp Munitions with Planet New Berlin behind.
But wait - that wasn't the whole story yet. Right after that incident, I've sent a transmission to the Zoner Marvin (who gave me the large alien remain as present), asking him, if he could afford some new ones for me. And luckily, he was even selling a finished cloaking device! I have no clue, from where and how he got it. But I didn't really cared. Seems like the Rheinland Military weren't the only ones, constructing those.
So I bid a sum of almost 90 million credits on it! And yes, here it is:
Description of a Light Cloaking Device.
I simply love it. It already saved my ship a couple of times. And you can even avoid any interactions with pirates, which makes it worth the credits I paid. It's my newest life assurance from now on. The only problem is, that this beauty eats H-Fuel, like a teenager in his adolescence. But I'll find a solution for that soon.
