The Salvation that wasn't

This has been one hell of a week. Or should I say that this week has been hell. I am not sure how to feel about the things that have gone through these past few days. Everything that could go wrong, went wrong. My worst fears had come true. The

Knights of Karma

Change of course

Its been a little over 5 years since I got my pilot's license. What a ride it has been and I have thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. But, as mentioned in my earlier post, change is a part of the journey and I believe my current journey has come

Year 5 - My journey as a CMDR

Life is about the journey, not the destination - AnonymousToday marks 5 years since I got my Pilot's Federation license. 5 years since I first got called a Commander. It has been a journey worth looking back at. There has been periods of highs and moments of lows. But there

Solitude

Security Operations and inspection at Solitude - Year 2

This year has been largely uneventful for me. Apart from purchasing a Fleet Carrier for myself, I have been grinding through the routine. Hence, it has been long since my last post. I bought the carrier on a whim, since everyone was doing it. I have taken it around for

Nebula

Nebulae Run

At last I have reached my first waypoint of my journey towards Solitude. TRAIKAAE AA-A H2 Nebula. Not really interesting but a change for sore eyes nonetheless. When I started out from Qa'wakana, I decided to take another scenic route, the previous one being a route I took while returning

Hutton Run

I have done it. I have made the Hutton Run, without breaking a sweat. The idea to do the Hutton Run now of all times came to me suddenly while I was preparing for my journey to Solitude. One of the reasons for the journey is for me to consolidate

Knights of Karma

Security Operations and inspection at Solitude

The last few months have been quite busy. With my newfound drive to recruit new members, I was able to get some fresh blood in our squadron and the same time was able to run a focused event every week. I realised that we had bad security ratings in some

Chi Herculis

The First Great Planetary Expedition

All journeys come to an end. Even the greatest ones. A journey of mine came to an end today. But as they say, it's not the end but the journey itself that matters. And this journey was a very important one for me. The past few months had been pretty

Qa'wakana

Back in the black

It has been a long time since I have made an entry. I have been mostly doing a desk job the past year, managing the faction, members and giving out orders. Which meant that whenever I stepped into my ship I would be going to one of our control systems

Qa'wakana

Our Second Anniversary

Another year gone. A rather uneventful year, which is not a bad thing of course. This year, I started being more of a diplomat. Diplomacy has its fun moments and its dull moments but I have started to enjoy the company of other CMDRs instead of being a lone explorer.

The backup plan!

The Formidine Rift! Roughly meaning the rift of fear. The name itself sent chills down the spine of those who had any idea what those words meant. For years, the existence of the Formidine Rift was talked about in hushed voices while daredevil explorers spent months looking for anything out

Solitude

The return of the Knights

Time flies! It seems like yesterday when I scrambled over to Solitude to protect our assets after it fell to foreign hands. Things are stable and looking good, not so for the bubble though. What were rumors half a year ago is very much real. The Thargoids are here and

Solitude

Times of Solitude

Power, is a strange thing. Power can be said to be the ability to do something. The ability to make a change. This ability in turn can create fear in the hearts of the living because the change might not be good for all. And this fear can in turn

Solitude

Reclaiming what is ours

It's never a good feeling when you lose something that is rightfully yours, more so when you have earned it with the hard work of like-minded people. Loosing control of Solitude was probably the worst thing to happen to us. And we had to change that as soon as possible.

Home away from home - Start of a journey

Everything is packed and I am all set to go. I planned to take my time, discover a few star systems, maybe an Earth-like World but the news we received was the worst in months. We were attacked in Solitude and have lost influence rapidly. The attackers, a faction called

Solitude

Home away from home - Preparing for the journey to Solitude

It has been almost a year since we set up our offices in the Colonia region. We named the system where we set up our offices as Solitude and the named the station Knight's Retreat. It is a small system, with hardly any resources to speak of. But in a

Actions of our past

The present is determined by our past actions, and the future by the present. - Swami VivekanandaHumanity never learns. Time and again we have caused total destruction just for the sake of it. And time and again we have paid the price for such a decision. The presence of Thargoids

Qa'wakana

The year gone by

Time sure flies, and it boosts by when you are enjoying your life. We have had our share of highs and lows but as a group we have accomplished a lot. Over the past year, lots of things happened. Friends were made, alliances were broken, people were scorned and achievements

Start of a new journey - Looking back

There always comes a point in someone's life when you sit back and reflect at your past, your actions and weigh them against the consequences. It has been over a year since I got my Pilots Federation license. I started solo like many of us. Eyes bright with starlight and
