Interesting tidings and strange bedfellows.

Lots of traffic in Omicron Delta this week. I ran into Eternal Journey once again...they requested to speak to me when they have more time in private. As to what they wish to discuss remains to be seen.

What's more, is Lazurith was out at the Freeport sporting a shiny new Freelancer IFF. Quite interesting considering the last time I heard from him, the AI onboard one of his vessels was saying he attempted to "self-terminate". Baffling that he was now out at Freeport 11 with a fresh coat of paint...I'm unsure if Revenant had taken him and his ship somewhere so he could be all fixed up...but that doesn't explain the Freelancer tag. Even more odd, the Order agent there, someone named Empress, was asking some rather interesting questions about my past...even Lazurith seemed to have a hunch as to who I was before. Not something that I want revealed. Freelancer or not, he is still Auxo in my book. Finally, he seemed to indicate that Aspen had been killed at some point. He said she was missing...but knowing her she's holed up somewhere weathering some kind of storm. She never was one to give up easily.

Anyway, I've returned to Leiden for the time being and have ventured back into the hell that is Kepler. I purchased a Bayonet fighter to get in and out as the radiation in the system clogs up the fuel ports on the Hawfinch. It's bad enough Leiden is in a dark matter field of it's own, but at least it isn't as extreme. I've been here, near the anomaly for a few hours now and haven't seen or heard anything...I wonder if whoever or whatever has been passing me info is in a slumber or if it simply has nothing to tell me for now. I will remain here for a day or so and then move on. Perhaps to see what this Eternal Journey fellow wants to talk about.

Eternal Journey Discussion

[21.01.2024 23:57:17] Eternal.Journey: *a brief private line: hello, Crowley. have questions for you... i want to know answers. if youll hear me, i would like-
[21.01.2024 23:57:30] Eternal.Journey: a comms line accessible to talk another time*
[21.01.2024 23:57:49] Crowley: [He chuckles.] You can always reach out via the neural nets if you please.
[21.01.2024 23:59:10] Eternal.Journey: i. do not wish for our communication to be done so there. past experiences and all that. preferably.. ship to ship comms.
[21.01.2024 23:59:19] Eternal.Journey: if thats alright with you?
[21.01.2024 23:59:37] Crowley: I can respect that I suppose. Neural nets aren't always secure...that is if you wish to communicate something sensitive.
[21.01.2024 23:59:46] Eternal.Journey: it is sensitive.
[22.01.2024 00:00:12] Eternal.Journey: and it isnt something i can do tonight, too much to discuss and not enough sleep.
[22.01.2024 00:00:12] Crowley: Mmm. [He considers his next words carefully.] Very well then, name a time and place. I will do my best to be there.
[22.01.2024 00:02:02] Eternal.Journey: it doesnt have to be a set time, or place. just, next time we cross paths, or are here together, when its not so late-
[22.01.2024 00:02:31] Crowley: I would rather it not be at the Freeport. Too many ears.
[22.01.2024 00:02:54] Crowley: Provided the sensitive nature of your...information.
[22.01.2024 00:03:10] Eternal.Journey: we do have ships, we are mobile. a meet up doesnt have to be the destination of our talks.
[22.01.2024 00:03:37] Crowley: Long range communications can be intercepted as well as clear text. Best to meet somewhere.
[22.01.2024 00:04:20] Crowley: [He chuckles.] It's up to you, however. Next we meet then my friend of circumstance.
[22.01.2024 00:05:03] Eternal.Journey: *also chuckles* well, i suppose we do tend to bump into each other as of late.
[22.01.2024 00:05:25] Crowley: Indeed.
[22.01.2024 00:05:45] Eternal.Journey: so its agreed. whenever, wherever, so long as the time is right.
[22.01.2024 00:05:52] Crowley: Very well.
[22.01.2024 00:06:33] Eternal.Journey: well, i best get some rest.
[22.01.2024 00:06:40] Eternal.Journey: until next time, Crowley.
[22.01.2024 00:06:46] Crowley: Indeed, until next time.
