My little corner of space looks pretty quiet, which is a pleasant start to the evening. Launching scanning probes, blanketing the system, and warping to a more central point shows the home system to be clear of hostile ships and unexpected signatures, which lets me take time to see what ...

I'm back in space and looking for something to shoot. I was in our neighbouring class 3 w-space system six weeks ago and the tower I have listed remains in the same place, although no one is home. A blanket scan confirms no obvious ships are in the system and ...

It's just me and Fin again. Mick chased an Orca industrial command ship collapsing a wormhole, and the wormhole collapsed. He's isolated out in empire space until we can find a new entrance for him to use. Scanning is a daily task, though, so hopefully we can get him back ...

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, ...

Fortune smiles on us. A route to empire space is found right on our door-step, a K162 found in our system that connects us to high-sec space, and the exit system is only four hops from Jita. I have a plan for bringing my ships back in to w-space, but ...

The Sleepers have knocked us down but we get right back up again. A standard anomaly in our neighbouring class 4 w-space system tempts us to launch strategic cruisers, to enact some revenge against the Sleepers as well as make back some ISK lost from the destruction of the five ...

Our wormhole is dying. But that's okay, we'll just get a new one. Each static wormhole in our system lasts for about sixteen hours and, with good intelligence on when the last one was opened, I warp out to the connection to watch it collapse. Before the ...

W-space beckons me again. I take my collection of bookmarks to wormholes and wander around the neighbourhood to see what's happening. The local cluster seems relatively quiet, including a system I overlooked earlier in the veritable constellation of w-space systems all connecting in to each other today. ...

I will go back. The Scorpion has seen me leave, I have seen an unfinished anomaly on d-scan, and I have reloaded my stealth bomber. There is a slim chance I can cause more mayhem. The first step is to see if the Scorpion battleship has moved ...

We have visitors. There are two K162 wormholes in our system, both coming from class 5 w-space systems, both systems having potentially dangerous capsuleers. One system seems rather more of a threat than the other, as they are actively sending people through our system. So far, they ...
