The birth of a Titan

Dante held his hands up in mock surrender to the Zoner mechanic.

"We had no intentions of doing such a thing, Mr. Donagan." he said putting his hands back down. "In fact, our new employers aren't even allowed to work on the Darkhorse, only former SLRC and Pathfinders personnel. It was apart of our employment contract before we even signed on. Zoner tech remains Zoner tech, Donagan. No exceptions."

He sighed, a bit dejected.

"Believe you me, if I'd had it my way I would still be a solo run operation...but things are expensive and SLRC didn't leave us very well funded before we split off from their operations. In order to stay in the running, we were forced to make a difficult decision. With the Darkhorse running on fumes, we accepted an offer with the Starfliers to continue our operations. Though we fly their flag, we are still Zoners at our core and Mr. Albert McKenzie has informed us that we operate independently from the other Starfliers personnel. So true, we operate under their umbrella, we still possess a measured amount of latitude and independence from the others."

He looked out the nearby window to the Darkhorse which sat moored inside the nebula.

"Why I didn't cancel our appointment is simple. I have another request for your teams. This is a bit...more difficult than just removing TacLink systems and sealing the former hardpoints."

He pulled out a datapad and handed it to the engineer.

"I hope you're ready for this. We're prepared to help with it as necessary...provided your teams are willing to let us help."

The datapad showed a schematic of the Darkhorse with a considerable modification to accomodate a docking bay in the former area where a majority of the weapons systems once existed. Clearly, the Pathfinder was aiming to modify the Zoner Q-ship to allow for a docking module to be installed.

You fear oblivion. Yet you forget. The universe remembers every atom of your being. Even dust hums your name in the dark.
