Amber Wing departs the neutral cartography exchange under manual safeguards. Veyra Sorn and her battered skiff remain behind as the ship clears the traffic beacons and turns toward darker space.
Lahani’s passive sweep reaches beyond the established Rim lanes. A rogue planet drifts without a host star, its dark hemisphere marked by a weak, unregistered beacon.
Nahuli
The beacon timing resembles the route corrections from Veyra’s stripped navigation board.
Nahuli
Put the planet on approach review. We head there, but we do not spend the departure reserve just to satisfy a signal.
Ranuko isolates the beacon comparison while Nikayo preserves the original timing record. Liyanu checks the medical buffer, and Kiryati keeps the emitters cold and locally armed.
Ranuko
The approach corridor is poorly mapped. Planetary gravity will make departure costly, and the beacon offers no authenticated guidance.
Amber Wing begins the cautious transfer toward the rogue planet. Its beacon pulses again from the nightside, faint and regular, while the navigation display waits for Lahani’s next manual correction.
