[Nightfall]

MESSAGE TO: Fellow Hoodlum

COMM ID: Aurelio Escobar, Captain of [IND]Fokke.Enterprise

I suggest that we gather a shipment of new scanners to the Rheinland Military.
Make it a donation.
What happened earlier today is that a Rheinland officer thought he caught me smuggling. Luckily I was quicker than his guns and docked to New Berlin, being able to talk my way out of it. I had to sell the cargo I had in hope that his scanner ain't glitchy about diamonds. :)

If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God? - from 'Nightfall' by I. Asimov
The Outcasts consider Siniestre Nube a sacred place for several reasons. Early explorers discovered a jumphole within the depths of the cloud that leads to a strange world of ringed stars and strange craft. All ships in the burrial ground are placed facing that hole to honor the Alien Spirits. - An Outcast rumor
