Now What...

YC113.11.08

Damn it!  I’ve finally run into James, and...  

Wait, I’m getting ahead of myself I think.

Life is the hole is slow right now, real slow.  In fact, I’m not sure if there’s enough here to keep me in the hole full time.  It may be better for me to spend most of my time in K-Space, and just pop in when there’s some action.  I dunno, it’s something I need to think about more.  No reason to leave Advent, it’s been pretty good to me.  I’m not sure if boss’ll go for me being a K-Spacer rather than in the hole full time though.

At least this downtime has been good for my studies.  I’m now qualified to run mining equipment at peak rates!  Plus, I’m good to go on the gas mining too - still haven’t had a chance to try it out though.  On that note, I’m even getting some practice in with the scanning probes.  Still not completely successful at it, but getting there.

Now if I can just get to K-Space and get me an Imicus, or even better get certified on a Helios!

Back to James...

Turns out I know where Ava wound up finally - James has started up a corporation supporting the Federation.  Looks like he’s found a way to generate profit while amassing power.  I’ve been chatting with him, and looks like he’s on to something good there...  I’m starting to wonder if there’s a way to get a piece of that pie - as part of Advent if possible, but this may be something to big to pass up.

I can’t believe it, but James may be right about politics being more important than ISK - I may be chasing the wrong thing!  It looks like politics has directly affected the markets - ice miners are being targeted, resulting in a severe shortage.  It may be a humanitarian crisis, but more importantly, there’s ISK to be made!

James also introduced me to someone that may be a worthwhile contact: Bastian Valoron.  He seems pretty heavily into politics, but that may be a good thing, if there really is ISK to make off it.

But the biggest news: I finally know why Kyber is always hanging out with the boss!  Turns out, while I’m out getting rocks to turn into profit, boss is back at the station getting his rocks off with Kyber!  Looks like I have nothing to worry about after all - Kyber’s not trying to steal my money, he’s just getting freaky.

Now I just hope boss is smart enough to make Kyber sign a pre-nup....
