I finally made a side profile of her (this one is my official btw, and it's her without her eyepatch so her mechanical eye is visible)

I finally made it to the Azorian sea. And I wished I was never here. It's always raining so hard, and there's not much you can do there. But Pete and Slag told me that I should wait a little bit longer. Because Ratchet and the Markazian were here. What a pain in the ass. Just when I had 4 weeks off and wanted to visit Hoolefar again, I need to deal with Ratchet and her girlfriend (if I can call it like this). And yeah, they are trying to find out about Darkwater, what fucking idiots. I'm pretty sure he asked about him to IRIS and it wasn't mentioned that he's dead (for good). But oh well, they bring danger to their way, I don't give a fuck what happens to them.

The space pirates still don't know that Slag is alive and they think I'm the current captain right now. And after a while, the have finally caught these two little fucks in a goddamn cannon. I have just watched from behind, so they haven't seen me just yet.

Rouge: "Awright, lads! 'This a stone's cast to Morrow Caverns, and the Pythors must be hungry."


What was that fucking idiot doing?! I've told him he shouldn't bring them to Morrow Caverns just yet..

Kiria: "Wait, wait, wait, wrong destination! What makes you think a proper punishment for these young folks was sending them to Morrow Caverns!"

Buccaneer: Sweet eye of a Zoni! Vice Captain B., we didn't expect you here!"

Kiria: "Yeah yeah, just send them to Hoolefar already. I have business there anyways."

Rouge: "Aye aye. Aye Cap'n. You heard her, lads! To Hoolefar in one..two..OH, JUST FIRE ALREADY!"

And boom, there they go. I don't know exactly why Slag told me to send them to Hoolefar, but hey, he's the Captain, it'd be a pain not to follow his orders. I hope Ratchet breaks a bone when he lands hehe.

A hour later on Hoolefar..

Barnabus Worley: "Hey there, young feller! Welcome to Hoolefar island! My name is Barnabus Worley- Mayor Barnabus Worley, to be precise. What brings you here?"

Ratchet: "Uhhh, I got shot out of a cannon.."

Barnabus Worley: "A cannon, eh? Must've been messing with those pirates. Well, any enemy of Sprocket and his gang is a friend of the island!"

Talwyn: "We're trying to contact a friend of ours, but I can't seem to catch a signal. I don't suppose you have a radio tower we could use?"

Barnabus Worley: "Sorry Miss- we had a supply beacon, but someone vandalized it last night. I still wish we had her, she was a great help. But if you help us repair it, I'm sure you'd be able to contact your friend!"

Ratchet: "Wait, who is 'she'?"

Barnabus Worley: "Ah, Kiria Blackwood, someone you're kind used to live here 6 years ago and repair stuff we couldn't, but one day she just left and never came back. I have found her diary when I wanted to check out on her house, I know it's not good to read someone's personal diary, but since it's been 6 years I'm pretty sure she forgot it. You can have it if you want. She might be a pirate now, but she's always welcome back to Hoolefar. I don't even know if she's alive. They are pirates after all. If you ever happen to meet her, please give it back to her."

Ratchet: "Thanks, I'll take it, And she's still alive. I'd gladly repair the beacon for you."

Barnabus Worley: "Really? Well, that is good news. Just climb at the top of each wind turbine and give the old bolt crank a turn."

Meanwhile somewhere between the Azorian Sea and Hoolefar Island..

Kiria: "Pete, you still haven't told me about your plan yet. Why did you say to cannon Ratchet and the Markazian to Hoolefar? We could've just killed them already."

Pete: "Well, we wanted him to use them both to go through Morrow Caverns to get Darkwater's body for Slag! That Lombax is also searching for the Fulcrum Star if he wants to find his friend, and the map to it is in Morrow Caverns on Darkwater's ship."

Kiria: "Did you really want to have Slag owning his body? This would give me huge PTSD, and probably the whole crew. And don't forget that he literally cursed himself before he died, so you might revive him if you use his body, and I definitely don't want that."

Slag: "C'mon Kiria! 'Tis man can't do anythin'! If he dead, then he dead! Or do ye' want to build a new body for me? You Lombaxes used to be great mechanics."

Kiria: "Right.."

Half an hour later, Hoolefar island..

Worley: "Young Lombax, I give you... the Obsidian Eye. The most powerful lorentzian telescope in the universe, it was created with lenses carved from obsidian glass, and powered by a single Fulcrum Star. Darkwater built it himself so as to keep in contact with his little friends before Kiria lived on Hoolefar."

Ratchet: "Can it tell me where they are?"

Worley: "Well sure, if you have a Fulcrum Star to activate it. Here- I took the liberty of borrowing this from our archives. They're pages from Darkwater's personal journal." 

Cap'n's Log, the third o' August. Me trip to the Breegus Star Cluster was fraught with savings! Not only did I find a great place for cheap krull cobbler, but I also met a mysterious race called "The Zoni". Friendly little creatures, they are. Can manipulate time and space to their will! Their leader gave me a Fulcrum Star I can use to talk to 'em with once I return to Polaris. It's worth a fortune, but I wouldn't part with it for all the Bolts in Meridian City!! Me only worry is me miserable first mate and his little friend, Slag and Kiria! It's only a matter of moons 'fore Slag tries to pillage me property! And Kiria has been nothing but a useless piece of crap on our Bord! Since I gave her the Zoni eye that the leader also gave me, she hasn't even used it at once! I have been planning to leave her behind at Morrow Caverns so the Pythors could have their fluffy meal! But I've taken steps to defend the Fulcrum Star well into the afterlife using an ancient Terachnoid incantation, and a coupon for one free curse at the Hoolefar Magic Emporium! I'll forever bind me soul to the body, so that I may protect the Fulcrum Star. He who disturbs me, shall disturb me entire crew! This, I swear!
