All Good Thing Come to an End

Captain Sajur Log: Day 93 of the Great Voyage

We have traveled far and wide across the Zeikeutsyr state, from world to world we covered every inch of this foreign land, trade booming and blooming at every stop along the way. I have witness many things of beauty and awe, I have experienced things which will stay with me for as long as my meager mortal life lasts against the passing tides of time. The lands of the Zephyr are unlike anything I could imagine, though how can one imagine something so foreign when all he has seen is but the structures and societies of that which he knew. I will remember my experiences in these lands fondly; even when my bones become brittle, and my memory degrades in my twilight years of age I shall recite this journey across the cosmos like it was yesterday to my children's children, and perhaps even their children should life be kind to this aging spirit in the days to come.

It pains me to know that I will like not see these lands again, or be able to traverse their most beautiful and often treacherous landscapes as the prime age of my life become to come to its end. Alas all good things must come to end, thus our journey here has ended, as the last world in the chain of Zephyr systems disappear from view against the cosmic darkness of the stars I could not help but enjoy some of my personal Kasheyong stocks while I wonder what opportunities I missed along the way, what experiences I didn't have as I did what I could in my limited time among these worlds.

I can already hear the FTL system of the Grand Trade Magnus being to charge up, it means we are approaching the edges of the last Zephyr Star System upon our journey I hope that we made as good of an impression on the Zephyr as they did upon us for greater trade will follow if our journey is successful. For now it is time to close this chapter of my journey across the stars and begin a new one as out likely much shorter stay in the Isaurian League begins.

Trade Fleet Leaves First of Four States

Edging into darkness the Grand Trade Fleet shifted to the extreme edges of the last Zephyr Star System on their path, and out of Zephyr Territory for the first time in almost 3 months of travel and trade. They prepared for an extended period of FTL travel, all transport ferry vessels were brought into dock firmly contained in the grand hangers and docking bays of the Grand Trade Magnus and her sister ships, the kiosks were cleared and temporarily closed down for a through cleaning and polishing of the entirety of the great trading halls of each vessel, and the vessels were left empty beyond the occasional O.D.I.N. drone unit or the pristine ships guards of the Brotherhood of Xandris. The ship's command crew made their way to the vessel's grand bridge from where they would direct the behemoth towards its next point of trade. The merchants which occupied the kiosks returned to their luxurious travel quarters where they could propery take stock of they remaining available items for sale, as well as decompress following a lengthy period of hard work. The halls were now in practical silence with the only excepts being the occasional echoing footstep or the swarm of cleaner bots which began to refurbish the great vessels back to its original state prior to the influx of significant foot traffic. Finally when all was said and done in a moment of pure unadulterated silence, and nothing but the faintest of distant flashes, the trade fleet left the Zephyr State, and began to long journey to the Isuarian League, travelling counterespionage towards to world of Evvia as had been instructed.
