The Long And Dangerous Road Home

(Unova Syndicate- Planet Xerciam Prime)

(Outskirts of a Mining Colony)

Sophie had immediately left the mining colony after briefly kidnapping and interrogating a few random aliens for information.

Fortunately, it seemed that the layout of the major cities on the planet was not a closely guarded secret and in fact several of the residents were actually carrying maps.

What she found truly shocking was the spatial coordinates of planet Xerciam Prime.

Planet Xerciam Prime was in the outer regions of the Unova Syndicate and at least two thousand light years away from the Earth Federation border.

This distance may seem vast at first glance, but warp drive technology meant that the journey would take no longer than three weeks.

The main problem was the fact that the border was currently an active war zone and the only ships travelling to this dangerous area were generally military vessels or private starships carrying mercenaries.
