Glad to receive your greetings, my friend. As you might have guessed, I still haven't managed to return Mr. Planet to his orbit. If we were to sit down and calculate the distance, we're actually farther away from the star sector where he was originally supposed to be than before. What can I do? The planet I stole doesn't want to go home yet, and neither I—nor the agent dispatched by the Department of Legal Affairs—can persuade him. Yes, The Alliance sent a Department of Legal Affairs agent aboard…
