The Heist

{{#set: location = Zash'ar }}

Zash'ar, timestamp::April 24463

In which a bargain is struck, and new life breathed into a decrepit ship.

In a Zash'ari mining colony, Sindri and Kratos leave the Tabula Rasa in search of food and air. The ship sustained some damage in its recent (mis)adventures, and in addition lost much of its atmosphere. Wandering into an O2 bar named "Breathers Anonymous,", the pair are spotted by Connor, who has reason to avoid notice by either of them. His attempts at being inconspicuous don't succeed for long, though. After trying and failing to get the air dispenser to resupply the ship, Kratos notices Connor.
