I have returned from the brown, flat and heated abyss known as the Midwest.
As the crew and I began our mission out there we knew it would be a hard quest, for our transport's air conditioning unit had failed us.
2,075 miles later and in only 2 days, thanks to our hyper jets, we arrived in an unfamiliar world. The world's sun was blazing. The air humid. And many species unknown back home. Many of them that survive on our blood!
The creatures that lived on this world were surprisingly hospitable. One crew member, 1st Officer Rosenkoetter, is actually a native to this world. And she was able to communicate with the local creatures, allowing us to find food and shelter. The 1st Officer's parents lived here and we were eagerly ushered into their dwelling space.
While visiting this world we managed to find a local mechanic with the appropriate knowledge of our earthcraft. This fine fellow managed to fix our conditioning unit, which was most appreciated for the long journey home.
Our trip home was a struggle, however, for fatigue was setting in on the crew. Morale was low and we all were longing for the familiarity of home.
However, it was a successful mission, with little incident occurring.
