I know I have no business turning to you, but I find myself in a situation. I have procured a crew with promises of payment that I ultimately could not produce. As I have failed so miserably in my role, they are turning to you to make good on the promises that I could not fulfill. I hope that my years of dedicated service will make amends for my recent actions, but if not, know that I set out on this unauthorized expedition to make good on the promises I made to you.\n\nThey want me to tell you that even if you pay, it is only for my freedom. You will never see the Pytheas again\u2026\n\nI\u2019m sorry\u2026 it\u2019s not the Pytheas.\n\nIt\u2019s the Rip\u2019N\u2019Rag now.\n\n<<<COMMUNICATION STREAM ENDS","de_DE":"ANFANG:\n2944.11.05\/08:16\nSTANDORT: Helios\nNun, das war ein toller Tag.\n\nIch war auf Vivendens Anwesen gegangen, ganz satt von den immer schrecklicheren Nachrichten, die seine Mitarbeiter mir \u00fcber die straff\u00e4lligen Zahlungen \u00fcbermittelten, was ich erwartet hatte, war ein Versuch, zivilisiert zu sein, der schnell in weitere Drohungen ausartete.\n\nIch gebe zu, dass ich es hasse, mit Kreditzahlungen in Verzug zu geraten. Ich habe versucht, genau diesen Punkt zu erkl\u00e4ren. Sie schienen zu glauben, dass ich sie ausnutzte, dass ich es genoss, diese Anordnung \u00fcber meinem Kopf zu haben; sie lehnten jede Zusicherung ab, dass ich ihre Investition nicht verschwendete.\n\nAm Ende des Tages bewiesen sie, dass sie ausschlie\u00dflich auf Geld fixiert waren. Im Gegensatz zu ihnen hatte ich Forschung zu betreiben, also bin ich gegangen.\n\nAls ich in meinem Labor ankam, wurde ich von der pl\u00f6tzlichen Angst ergriffen, dass einer von Vivendens Mitarbeitern versuchen w\u00fcrde, die Pytheas zur\u00fcckzugewinnen. Ich wusste, dass der einzige Weg f\u00fcr sie, die Credits, die ich schuldete, zu bekommen, in den Sternen lag, also \u00fcbertrug ich schnell meine aktuelle Forschung und eilte zum Hangar f\u00fcr einen schnellen Start.\n\nAls ich durch Tangaroa's Atmosph\u00e4re aufstieg, sah ich keine Spur von Vivenden's Leuten. Vielleicht war mein abrupter Abgang eher ein paranoider als ein rationaler Zug. Ich wei\u00df es nicht. Ich muss dieser Wolke der vertraglichen Knechtschaft irgendwie entkommen.\n\nAuch wegen meines voreiligen Starts konnte ich weder Tio noch den Rest meiner \u00fcblichen Crew kontaktieren, so dass ich derzeit solo fliege. Ich muss irgendwo eine Crew finden.\n\nW\u00e4hrend ich reise, muss ich herausfinden, wie ich sie bezahlen kann.\n\n2944.11.06\/13:01\nStandort: Tirol\nIch gestehe, dass ich mehr Zeit verbracht habe, als ich innehalten sollte, um die Doppelsterne an der Schwelle zur Katastrophe im Zentrum des Systems zu studieren, bevor ich mich auf den Weg zu meinem Ziel machte. Es war wirklich faszinierend.\n\n2944.11.08\/16:33\nStandort: Tirol\nMehrere Tage in Haven erwiesen sich als ebenso erschreckend und berauschend. Ich war nicht l\u00e4nger als ein paar Stunden in der labyrinthischen Canyon-Stadt gewesen, als ich von einem Paar einheimischer Kinder, einem Menschen und einem Tevarin, angegriffen wurde. Ich war im Begriff zu fragen, was sie wollten, als ich von hinten von mehreren anderen angegriffen wurde, die versuchten, mich zu immobilisieren, um meinem Mobi zu entkommen. Pl\u00f6tzlich verstreuten sich die Kinderdiebe wieder in die dunklen Gassen. Ich drehte mich um, um zu sehen, was sie ver\u00e4ngstigt hatte, um einen menschlichen Mann zu finden, der einen Elektroschlagstock senkt. Er half mir auf die Beine, als ich ihm herzlich dankte. Wie der Zufall es wollte, war der Mann, der sp\u00e4ter als Derek Voughn eingef\u00fchrt wurde, ein Pilot auf der Suche nach Arbeit.\n\nIch erz\u00e4hlte ihm von meiner Expedition. Er h\u00f6rte aufmerksam zu. Wie er wie ein f\u00e4higer Pilot schien und mit den blauen Flecken von meinem potenziell gef\u00e4hrlichen Angriff mich daran erinnerte, eindeutig ehrenhaft.\n\nMit Derek's Hilfe konnte ich eine Crew zusammenstellen. Ich gestehe, dass die Verzweiflung mein Urteilsverm\u00f6gen \u00fcber einige von ihnen getr\u00fcbt haben k\u00f6nnte. Ich fuhr fort, mich daran zu erinnern, dass Haven nicht f\u00fcr viele anst\u00e4ndige Arten bekannt ist, aber ich brauchte Menschen und das Fehlen von entbehrlichen Geldern machte es schwierig, denjenigen einzustellen, den ich es tat.\n\n2944.11.17\/20:43\nLAGE: Hades\nWir sind jetzt seit etwas mehr als einer Woche im Hades-System. Ich muss sagen, Derek hat die Erwartungen erf\u00fcllt und sich als kompetenter und erfahrener Pilot erwiesen. Es stellt sich heraus, dass meine anf\u00e4nglichen Bef\u00fcrchtungen \u00fcber den Rest der Crew v\u00f6llig unbegr\u00fcndet waren. Auch wenn sie an den Kanten rau sind, sind sie ein effektives Team.\n\nIch habe fr\u00fchere Explorer-Logs erneut gelesen, um nach m\u00f6glichen Anomalien zu suchen, die sie vielleicht \u00fcbersehen haben oder (in den F\u00e4llen der \u00e4lteren Texte) wo die neuere Technologie entdecken konnte, was sie einfach nicht konnte. Bislang haben wir keine Anzeichen f\u00fcr m\u00f6gliche Sprungbremsen gefunden, aber ich bin zuversichtlich. Diese Crew und die Kameradschaft, die sich schnell zwischen ihnen entwickelte, geben mir diese Hoffnung.\n\nPers\u00f6nlich ist es so befriedigend, wieder hier drau\u00dfen zu sein, umgeben nur von Arbeit und der Aussicht auf Entdeckung. Einer der inh\u00e4renten Niederg\u00e4nge der Zivilisation, die ich erkannt habe, ist das zus\u00e4tzliche Gep\u00e4ck, das mit dem t\u00e4glichen Leben einhergeht; das Geld betrifft, die kleinen Dramen zwischen den Menschen. Es fehlt ihm die Unmittelbarkeit und Reinheit des Lebens auf der Strecke.\n\nHier drau\u00dfen ist es so einfach.\n\nIch liebe es.\n\n2944.12.15\/23:09\nLAGE: Hades\nImmer noch kein Gl\u00fcck. Es ist sehr frustrierend, aber zum Gl\u00fcck hatte ich einen Durchbruch in meiner Forschung. Ich habe einige Ausz\u00fcge aus den Fahrtennotizen eines Spediteurs nachgelesen und denke, dass ich eine m\u00f6gliche Spur entdeckt haben k\u00f6nnte. Die Frau hatte eine subtile Signaturanomalie notiert, die sie einem defekten Avionikpaket zugeschrieben hatte. Ich denke, es k\u00f6nnte etwas mehr sein. Leider sind die genauen Koordinaten nicht aufgef\u00fchrt, aber ich sollte in der Lage sein, eine grobe Position basierend auf Flugdaten zu triangulieren.\n\nDie Crew teilte meine Begeisterung \u00fcber diese Entdeckung nicht. In den letzten Tagen sind sie im Allgemeinen ruhig geworden. Ich sprach mit Derek an der Seite und versicherte ihm, dass wir uns nahe standen.\n\nEtwas schien in seiner Antwort anders zu sein.\n\nIch muss es ihnen nur beweisen.\n\n2944.12.23\/18:31\nORT: <<< UNBEKANNT >>\nHerr Vivenden, das ist Buassi Prentice. Ich wei\u00df, dass ich mich nicht an dich wenden darf, aber ich befinde mich in einer Situation. Ich habe eine Crew mit Zahlungsversprechen beschafft, die ich letztendlich nicht produzieren konnte. Da ich in meiner Rolle so kl\u00e4glich versagt habe, wenden sie sich an dich, um die Versprechen einzuhalten, die ich nicht erf\u00fcllen konnte. Ich hoffe, dass meine jahrelange engagierte Arbeit Wiedergutmachung f\u00fcr meine j\u00fcngsten Taten leisten wird, aber wenn nicht, dann wissen Sie, dass ich mich auf diese nicht genehmigte Expedition begeben habe, um die Versprechen, die ich Ihnen gegeben habe, einzuhalten.\n\nSie wollen, dass ich dir sage, dass, selbst wenn du bezahlst, es nur f\u00fcr meine Freiheit ist.
