My Story
From The Pardusian Chronicles
Part 1
Well, I am what I am, but how did it come so?
I was born on the Planet earth in Sol Sector, maybe some of you know it. My family lived near the countryside, i had a really wonderful childhood, nice parents and friends. My father was a medical doctor and he wanted me also to become a doctor, like he was and his father was and the father of his father was...
On the other hand Grandpa (mother`s father) always told me stories about space and the heroic pilots, flying in there metallic nutshells, trading for the best of our federation and fighting against our enemies and spacemonsters.
To please my father I went to medical school at the age of 20. Far away from my parentĀ“s house, living lonely in a big city i started thinking: "was it that, what i wanted to do in my life?" - "Is treating old, sick people the right thing for me?". So i went to a taverne, where many pilots used to eat and drink. I talked to one of them, an old man, somehow he reminded me of my grandfather, and booked a so called "VIP-Trip". i helped him supporting Sol Base and Blade City, we hunted space dragons and space maggots. One time we jumped to Olexti and i saw the big "Jeff K. Foam" with my own Eyes!
After that trip I often met him, i only know him as Mike, at the tavern. We had fun together, talked and after a few month he asked me if i wanted to come with him and help him. He was already very old and could use a little help aboard. He couldnĀ“t pay much but he promised to teach me everything about interstellar travelling he knew......
