Encounters Within the Clouds

[Caconym]

As she set course to Barrier Gate, she hears the voice again calling to her again.

Come... Come... Come...

The voice is coming from the Nebula, in a direction she had never explored before. As she watches, a small, bright purple circle appears in her vision, looking like the waypoints human navigation systems use, only projected in her mind and not on her HUD.

As she arrives to the location, a large, menacing shape can barely be seen through the thick clouds of gas. It looks like a triangular jump gate, damaged and with a wreck in the center. Then, as she watches, a huge, kilometer long purple cylindrical explosion takes place only a few hundred meters away from her position. The nomad has arrived.
