It's a Fin! What's happening, my glorious leader? Not much, not yet. Or maybe it's already kicked off, in the past day or so, as half of our anomalies are missing. Those damned blues. We should seek and destroy them, perhaps through this second wormhole in the home system. I ...

Are these three extra signatures in the home system Sleeper-borne or capsuleer intrusions? A bit of both. Some new rocks, with some Sleepers not good enough to be part of an anomaly's fleet, have floated in as a couple of K162s connect to us. Both wormholes come from class 2 ...

Still all quiet at home. So lonely. One extra signature to keep me warm. Maybe it leads to new friends. Maybe! It resolves to be a wormhole, a K162 from class 3 w-space. And jumping through the wormhole has a Badger light up my directional scanner. There's a tower visible ...

A burst of signature activity occurred overnight. Or, as it turns out, capsuleer activity. Three new signatures combine with the static connection to give a gas site and three wormholes. But even three wormholes doesn't offer much new, not when the static connection to class 3 w-space is always there, ...

I collapsed a wormhole to a dull constellation, ended up in the wrong system when doing so, and took a tedious trip after getting Constance to scan a new route home for me. But as Constance also found a couple of K162s from class 4 w-space in our neighbouring C3 ...

It's so early. Can anyone really be awake in w-space? Apart from me, obviously. Maybe, as another scout has opened a wormhole in to our system, the K162 coming from class 2 w-space. Of course, that could have happened hours ago, even last night, with only the wormhole not yet ...

It's quiet at home, quiet at the neighbours. Scanning my way through our static wormhole puts me in an unoccupied and inactive class 3 w-space system. My notes point me to a tower from eleven months ago, but warping there finds it off-line and stripped of anything useful, which means ...

It's cold in space, and there's a cold in Penny. I'll restrict myself to light-duty w-spacing tonight, nothing too strenuous or stressful. And, just for once, I'd quite like circumstances to go according to plan at least for a few minutes, to make it feel like I have some semblance ...

Fin's here, as is another new signature. The home system today holds a K162 wormhole from class 5 w-space, so I separate from my glorious leader to see what trouble I can find for the pair of us. Not much, at least not from the other side of the wormhole. ...

Decisions, decisions. Which way to turn in the w-space constellation? Behind me is a class 5 w-space system, holding a K162 through which I podded a gasser in class 6 w-space, whose home system beyond that C6 I have yet to find. But ahead of me, in our neighbouring class ...
