I’ve decided to change course and head toward Achenar instead of Maia as originally planned. While Maia was my initial destination, I realized that building my reputation here in Achenar gives me a much better chance of securing high-paying missions. This will allow me to save up more quickly to upgrade both of my new Corsair ships.

After a long period of absence, I’ve returned to Kholu to rebuild my local reputation. Given that Abetti Vision in Kholu remains my primary base of operations, it felt necessary to reestablish my presence. Currently, I spend a lot of time in the neighboring system Wichaimi, operating from the Hardy Observatory planetary port. The missions there are highly rewarding — both in terms of credits and challenge — making it an ideal ground for sharpening my skills and growing influence.

Looking ahead, I plan to travel once more to Maia. I aim to establish a new foothold there and dedicate time to improving my ship's power plant with the help of the local engineer. A new chapter awaits in the Pleiades.

We're taking advantage of this expedition to visit the system, which is as spectacular as it is magnificent.

Last week, I was tempted to buy this incredible new vessel. It has enormous combat potential with its multiple carry points.

So I removed a few laser beams and missiles from my mamba and incorporated them into my new ship.

I will say that the only drawback I find with this ship is its 6A generator, which is very limiting compared to everything else you can put on it. But let's not despair, the next step will be to improve this generator thanks to the engineers, I'm counting on it.

To do this, given my current level, it's going to be a bit tricky to get Hera Tani's help. In the meantime, we have Felicity Farseer, who will open doors for me in exchange for meta alloys. This engineer isn't the most suitable for the generator, as we can't go further than level 1, but I can't do otherwise to start with.
