Flying On The Fringe

I did some calculations to see how much I’ll have left over after the Dagran authorities dock me for the late shipment. Since the cargo is valuable, I still should get a decent profit. If I have enough credit, and enough down time, I’m going to try to add some weapons to the Gilded Starlilly. I don’t want to have to run and hide every time I encounter pirates. Worse, if they caught me, they’d likely kill me and get the ship in addition to the cargo. Not going to let that happen if I can avoid it. Marlon wasn’t a believer in weapons, and he survived without them, but I’d rather be well-armed.
