I took a zoner transport from Gran Canaria all the way up to Freeport 6, and from there to Java Station, in Tau-23. I talked to an IMG representative there, and he got me on the next freighter from Java to Timor Mining Station, in the Tau-39 system, where the final assembly of the Devi is made.
I soon as I got off the freighter I saw her parked at the launch bay. Looks heavy, but at the same time nimble. It appears to be a powerful ship, and its double torpedo mounts show it.
After signing all the transfer papers, I launched and engaged the cruise engines. The first impressions were good. The ship looks to be a little more agile than my old Waran, it was easy to dodge the asteroids on my way through the system.
I took the quicker route, that being via Tau 23 and 31 to Leeds and then Dublin. All was strangely quiet as I passed through Leeds. The only remembrance of the war was the gallic battleship parked in orbit of Planet Leeds.
The flight proceeded without incidents all the way to Omega 49. The mechanics at Nichols are giving the ship a 'check-up' and it should be available for active duty within the hour.
And just now, as I entered my office here at Nichols, I received a message from Livadia Shipyards telling me that the engineers have finished the retrofitting of the Sabana with new armor and computer systems. The old gunboat, in service of OSI for many years, and that was designated to me after I became a Director, looks brand new now, according to what the chief engineer say on the message. I can barely wait to see her!
Starr out.
