Kiria Blackwood is a female Lombax who was born on Fastoon 17 years before Tachyon attacked the Lombaxes. Growing up without any friends, Kiria found out that the Lombax miners have found a cragmite egg on Kreeli Comet from which Tachyon was born. T...

It's been a year after I got banned from my own kind and lived on Hoolefar. I turned 17, and the life here is actually not bad. The Hoolefoids are fine, temperature is normal...it's just..how are the other Lombaxes doing? I mean, I don't really care, I'm just curious, that's all. But as they say: Curiosity killed the Lombax. The only thing that annoys me is that my eyes are always itching for some reason. Maybe because it's not the usual environment for a Lombax, but it's still better than Fastoon.
Anyways, I've been thinking about Ardolis way too long, should I go? Or I'm I still not prepared? I've lost only a few times..but I recently got better. I think I'll be fine, I have too much bolts anyway. I was trying to contact the Smuggler (I still don't know his goddamn name), but it seemed like he was busy..probably doing some illegal shit..like me..
After a half an hour he answered me, said he was on his way to pick me up. He wasn't in Polaris right now, so it could take a while. I probably should also go outside Polaris sometimes. I mean, I know almost every corner of this Galaxy. It's getting boring to be honest. But Hoolefar will still be my place.

It was getting more darker, but I'm a night owl, so no problem for me. I used to sneak out of my home and do random shit outside. Almost got caught by the Police after doing some shit. I'm lucky I have black fur since no one could really see me at night. It's just that sometimes my eyes can expose me, but that's not important. I actually like the night on Hoolefar. The sky is always clear, and the crashing waves were also comforting. Sometimes I talked with the beacon operator since he works sometimes at night. Helped him doing his work sometimes. Became friends. But this night, he told me something that actually got me worried.
The Lombaxes vanished.
He didn't want me to know since he thought that would be too much to handle for me, but I didn't even feel anything..I felt like I usually feel like. Maybe I didn't care? But my father..where was he now? Then he told me that that little, annoying, rotting, lizard looking ass Percival attacked them after gaining all the Lombax technology he wanted. Why would he do that? Well, I mean, sure, he betrayed me, but dang? He literally got raised by them, so why? This is a question that would probably leave me curious forever and ever.
That night I was sitting on a tree, waiting for the smuggler to arrive. The night felt much colder as usual. No, it's the wind that was colder. At least better than the other days. Summer ended a few days ago, so no wonder. Hoolefar will still stay like it always is, only a bit of temperature differences will occur here with a few drops of rain.
I didn't even notice that the Smuggler arrived while I was in my deep thoughts. I jumped down the tree, greeted him and entered his spaceship. It shouldn't take long to arrive to Ardolis, maybe 15 minutes or so. Me and the smuggler were talking just a bit. Then I saw Fastoon. It looked deserted. Gosh, what did that cragmite do? And where are the Lombaxes now? My father? Kaden? Alister?
Kaden's son?
Then I saw Ardolis. It was green as a forest. To be honest, I was nervous. Why? I was questioning it so hard that I didn't even notice we landed. Stupid me, always spacing out. Poor Smuggler is probably tired of calling me several times to get me back to reality (it was mostly the parrot that did that because he's so annoying I'm ready to tear that motherfucker in pieces).
"Are you sure you still want this? This place is pretty dangerous for a Lombax to be here as I mentioned a while ago. I'm not even sure that my company will lower the risk."
Great, he's telling me that only now? I can fucking die.
"And why didn't you mentioned that earlier? Whatever, I'll just get the night through and we will go back to Hoolefar. I only came here to look how professional the space pirates are. Don't you dare leave or I will eat that monstriosity on your shoulder as a night snack."
"Do it, I wanted to feed that little Kerchu-shit to the leviathan souls anyway." Dang, poor parrot. (#JusticeForParrot😔👊)
I don't know, but I was hiding behind the smuggler a bit (not like a child tho, that is just stupid), and just how pathetic the space pirates were called, they gave me the chills. I got those glances that felt like you were judged silently. This was actually scary. Gosh, why did I got here? I should've just quitted gambling already.. guess it's an addiction now.

Not gonna lie, this is actually fun! I've been gambling for years, but this is the first time I actually had fun. I had a great win streak right now and I can tell the space pirates were good. Sometimes I got lucky when I was playing. Only lost like 5 times, but still great. I think I should leave soon tho, because I only have 10 thousand bolts right now.. I don't want to gamble my things away. Even tho space pirates were actually supposed to search for Lombax technology and take any Lombax hostage for that, they saw me like I'm a different person. And I liked it. A half an hour later I asked the smuggler if he could bring me back, but a space pirate stopped me. He looked more taller and skinnier and more different then the rest of the crew. His voice was intimidating and almost inaudible.
He asked me to gamble with him.
