Scanning again, I jump through our static wormhole in to another pulsar system. Our home class 4 w-space system holds a pulsar, nicely boosting shields and capacitors, and this C3 gives the same benefits. If I find any ships here, I had better take stronger shields in to account. Nothing ...

There are more missing signatures at home. I imagine Fin has been harvesting gas, which is relatively quick to do and helps declutter our class 4 w-space system. I delete the bookmarks to obviously missing signatures but don't perform a full scan of the system, instead resolving our static wormhole ...

The Noctis got away, but the activity doesn't halt. Our bombing run on the salvager sees the alert pilot escape from my inept clutches, thwarting glorious leader Fin's kill, leaving the Sleeper wrecks still in the anomaly. And it doesn't look like the local pilots want their profit go to ...

There's an interceptor in our system. Fin's here too, and I think it's her Crow I'm seeing on my directional scanner. Ever since we've moved in to this class 4 w-space system there has been a wayward jet-can lurking somewhere, perhaps dropped in a safe spot by the previous inhabitants, ...

The popped Iteron pilot must have come from somewhere. I tried following him in to one of the class 3 w-space systems connected from this one, but only saw a few other pilots milling around. I loitered at a wormhole leading in to another C3 system from here, but the ...

The constellation has been revealed. Exploration has found three more class 3 w-space systems beyond our normal neighbour, with a couple of systems occupied, creating plenty of opportunity for mayhem. I have bookmarks for all the known wormholes, which are plenty, and anomalies in the systems. Now it is time ...

Everyone else is doing it, I don't want to appear square. I've played around the with new character creator. It slowed my machine down to a crawl, and took about an hour before I was happy with the result, and that was with surprisingly limited options. Not many options to ...

There's a new ladar site at home. We only just killed a couple! Thankfully, scanning naturally finds me our static wormhole too, and I can ignore the new gas harvesting site and head out to explore further afield. Jumping in to the neighbouring class 3 w-space system sees cans, bubbles, ...

The wormhole opened by our earlier interlopers has collapsed, giving me a new one to open. I resolve the connection and jump through, still a little disappointed that the earlier possibility of deeper exploration is now gone, most likely replaced with a single class 3 w-space system to explore before ...

I almost feel violated. Today's scanning shows no immediate green dots that indicate anomalies in the system, every single one of the dozen or so having disappeared. A fairly hefty fleet must have passed through our home system and annihilated the easily found Sleeper sites, all but robbing us of ...
