voidtreckernet | Orchestra 18 [Voice and Video]

Attention Voidtreckers. [A pause.] And passengers. As promised I have verified the missive from voidscout Anan and will play it to you in full.

[The screen's flicker on. At first there is darkness and a familiar beeping.]

[Then the picture comes into focus to show Anan sat in a pilots chair, Chiff on her head like an odd metal hat. Chiff began beeping rapidly and excitedly.]

It worked? Ah thank you Voidtrecker Express.

[She grinned.]

Hello voidtreckers. Hope you've been alright since we last met. This might sound a bit weird but considering how rushed our departure was last time we were together and since you haven't seen much of the void yet... I wanted to invite you to my system. There's a planet called Osiga where every year the sun is hidden for almost an entire month plunging the world into darkness. That month is called Neran's sleep, in the past it was pretty difficult to survive though nowadays technology means nobody is in danger. Even so the culture of Osiga is still a very helpful and generous one because communities had to be close knit to make sure everyone got through the dark times.

Nowadays Neran's sleep is a time of reflection, the final three days are a huge festival called the Waking of Neran. It's one of my favourite festivals. I'm not sure if your voidcraft will bring you here but I'm sending over the system number and planet coordinates. Voidtrecker Express I'm sure your crew need a break, you work them very hard.

I guess I'll know if you turn up. Hopefully see you soon, it will be nice to spend time with you when we're not in mortal danger.

Anan and Chiff signing off.
