You know what? That's totally fair.
Go on and get yourself a cup. Maybe pour a little out for your ol' pal Taylor, stranded at the cosmic crossroads.
As for me, the crater's opposite wall is in sight. I'm gonna buckle down, grit my teeth, and hobble my way on over there.
Thanks for the pep talk. I'll message you in a bit.
[Taylor is busy]
Well, it actually didn't take as long to cross the crater floor as I thought it might.
Putting pressure on the ankle doesn't feel great, but I can handle it.
Here's the strange thing, though: Maybe fifty yards back, I tripped over something while I was walking.
(Yeah, I know, I've been so graceful so far, it must be hard for you to believe.)
Anyway, it was pretty well buried in the sand, but when I looked down at it... it glinted at me in the sun.
Because it was METAL.
It took me a minute to dig it up, and I've been examining it ever since, but I'm still not sure what it is, exactly.
I mean, I guess it's GOT to be a panel from the Varia... it's just weird that it came down so far from the rest of the ship, huh?
Anyhow. I've found a gentle grade to try and climb out of here, but I want to give it my full concentration.
So I'll message you once I'm back up top, cool?
[Taylor is busy]
Um. So. Here's something.
On this side of the crater, there's a little ridge.
And on that little ridge, there are more little pieces of metal.
Like, SEVERAL more.
And then, just on the other side of that little ridge -- where you can't see it until you've crested the little ridge --
There's, um...
...there's a spaceship.
[Taylor is busy]
So... yeah. It's a good thing that the air here is okay to breathe, because I've been hyperventilating it for the last minute or so.
What the hell? I mean... I mean, what the hell? Seriously, just, what the hell?
(I was a science student, not an English student. Forgive me.)
From up here, I can tell it's a much smaller ship than the Varia -- it's what I think they call a caravel-class vessel.
It would've had half a dozen crew, tops, making quick runs with minimal armament.
Minimal defenses.
What is it doing here? How long has it been here?
The engine looks like it was just... SHEARED from the rest of the ship. Did they collide with space debris, maybe?
God. I have about a million questions.
Should I go down there and explore the wreckage, do you think?
Or do I keep to higher ground, and stay the hell away from that ship and whatever brought it out of the sky?
