Crew from the lower decks came to me one day. With them was a recent hire, put before me battered and restrained. Bribery, said their captors. This duplicitous wretch came to them in the off hours promising wealth in exchange for subterfuge. Don't recall how much, but I do recall the impression of the figure. It was a great sum indeed! Quite the tempting offer. Chances are that, were this any other fleet, the interloper would've found no small success.

Ah, but this isn't just any fleet! Oh no, it is mine.

"Oh, you wonder what makes my crew so loyal? From where does this stalwart dedication, so resistant to corruption, come?" I said. The captive did not ask, for their jaw was much too broken. If they could speak chances are they'd put pleading before questioning, but I digress.

"Its simple, really, so so simple! Authority. Do you know what authority is, at its heart? It is a promise, and a threat."

Such is what I recall.

A Transmission From the Dark

[ A call from the dark depths beams to all near enough to hear. It presents its origins proudly, a beacon in endless night.]

Travelers, come to the Anabasis! Ascend to the Sixth Rung! Let the master of the house shower you with gifts. Tell your stories and know you are loved! The Anabasis, great capital ship of a mighty fleet, returns from far uncharted stars to civilization once more! All are welcome to come and peruse its findings. All are welcome to ascend to the Sixth Rung. Join there with the captain in merry making.

Travelers! Yours are the most beloved of guests. Come, for to the captain you are kin.

[The message repeats after a pause, no different than before. Steady, constant, brave. ]

It would seem my previous transmissions didn't work as expected. No permanency, no tether. I wonder if any had found them?

Ah, it is no matter! Behold, something new! Something of a public log, something of an archive. An archive of the little things. Things said and at risk of being forgotten.

Let us see if it works now...

Pinned Post WIP

Haven't attempted tumblr rp since I was a teenager. All rusty.

I'll get back to this later.
