Jake had fallen asleep in the cockpit, his face pressed against the glossy control panel. He had a strange dream about Bren getting married to a "giant exoskeleton." When he awoke, he scrambled to get his bearings and piece together the... intriguing reports of his fleet. Intriguing, to say the least.

Soon, they had paid the store it's massive scrap-load. Even after all of the payday excitement, the total fleet repairs left them with only 30 spare scrap to work with. Apparently, there were some complications with the Matures repairs, that jacked up its price even farther. So 30 scrap is what all of their hard work had left them with. That, a cargo lifter, and some new guns for the fleet to play with.

"Allright guys," Jake said. "We're in a state of 'not-broke-but-gettin-there-slowly' again! Let's move out!" Jake undocked with the station and pulled away to a safe jump distance, before vanishing into the next beacon.

Yo, is the new guy back yet? I'm wondering how much longer to extend this sector for.

Bren and his battalion of Lanius followed once Ruwen came back on board

"You heard what that Rock said at the entrance... the thing you need to get there is in Vrachos territory..." Eden said as she set the Pelican for a jump.
"And where is Vrachos?" Lux asked.
"Not in this sector. The Rock Homeworlds are a few sectors away and would be a serious detour from our path" Eden said, showing the sector map "Unless there's another Rock sector which do have their own Crystal artefact portal."
Lux shrugged "I'm sure Bren was just using a figure of speech."

He said he was grounded for an “indefinite amount of time” soooo... :?

At the next beacon, a black-painted Rock Assault sped fast the fleet at high speed. The only warning they got was that it was a "Vrachos Royal Procession" and that the "repugnant aliens" were to stay out of internal affairs.
"Well that was rude" Eden commented "But I guess it's understandable when the Big Day is approaching..."
"Big Day?" Lux asked "You mean there's a wedding?"
Eden nodded "Yeah, the Grand Basilisk of Vrachos IV and Numa V will be joining together as family within a few weeks time. That ship was no doubt an envoy, probably requesting that the flowers at the chosen venue be grey or red instead of blue or something. This has been going on for years now."
She sent the data to everyone's devices. "You should really look into the Approved Media for the juicy bits of gossip to distract the populace from the grander affairs."
A black-stone Rockman in a fancy white wedding dress and bright blue eyes was depicted on the page. "Ariadne Vrachos... that is one horrid dress."

There didn't seem to be anything else of interest, except for a few small planetoids.

No, let's not escort a Rock bride to the altar. Besides, Numa V was just back there.

Grem rolled her eyes a bit at this as she heard what was going on

"This is Fleet Commander Jake Collins of the United Rogue-" Jake began.

"Silly soft skins! You have violated our territory! Prepare to die!" The rockmen shouted.

The rockmen fired a series of impressive lasers at the Mature. Jake didn't even wince as the pulses of light flew at him, for he knew they would just dissolve against the Purple Shield. And of course, they did, barely making a dent in the Particle Density of the purple barrier.

"Jake..." Sarah said. This was the first time he had seen her since... "There is some kind of device emitting high-energy Galactons in that ships cargo hold. I just picked them up on sensors... hard to miss."

"What are Galactons?" Jake asked.

"Galactons are a type of subatomic particle. They haven't been discovered by the Federation or anyone else yet - I don't think they'll be discovered for another 150 years. I doubt that rock ship can even detect them at all."

"So... something on that ship is from the future?"

"Not necessarily. Galactons have already been discovered and used by Crystals. Galactons are a central part of many Crystal power cores."

"How do you know?"

"Ruwen has beem on the ship once or twice. I learned it from a basic mental scan while he was onboard."

"So there is some kind of Crystal tech on that ship?"

"Maybe."

"Any way to tell what it is?"

"Well... we could activate it..."

"What? How?" Jake asked.

"Using a low-level Fault Beam in the sensor station, I can excite the Galactonic field the device is emmiting. The field will get so excited that it should backfeed and activate the device's power core from a standby state to an active one."

"Like a jumpstart?"

"Exactly."

"Hold off. We have no idea what that device does yet. But get it ready."

Sarah nodded, and disappeared.

Is the Rock wedding envoy shooting at the fleet or is this another encounter?

[Well, the envoy is because we violated its path and it now perceives us as a threat.
