Augment my kingdom

Absolutely enlightened, permission from the top was granted and my access and privileges was changed accordingly. I can now launch my own POS (Player Owned Starbase) without assistance or clearance needed. My own piece of structural beauty, landmark and relative safety in this unforgiving live, I will grab it with both hands. My own structures anchored in space where I can conjure and put together ships and do research on them, hopefully this means more money, interstellar credits - dubbed isk - the blood of life.

This means I can finally realise, or at least try to realise, my plans of a corp ore-buy program to stimulate industry for the people that don't have corp-pve-ops going for them. I find solace in the prospect of being self sufficient in this remote ever-changing part of space and hope that I could benefit myself and the corporation.

We make a lot of money with killing "Sleepers" these technological marvel of drones that come in all sizes of ships, drone-size, frigate-size, cruiser-size and battleship-size. Selling their salvaged and hacked technology is really lucrative but there are times that I long for the "old" days when I used to mine and had the privilege to. It is not that killing sleepers are boring in anyways, I just don't get the feeling I get from creating something and accumulating. Killing sleepers in my new class 6 wormhole also means that I have to wait for a group, which is bad when I only plan to be in space for a few hours. But I am not complaining, I am just very excited at the prospect of staking my claim, locking up my ships, accumulating and creating at the same time - did I mention I have a passion for that?

On the other hand there are new concerns now, how will I get my starbase moved without getting killed by a pirate, then there is the other concern of fuel moreso the logistics thereof. But I'm not good at being pessimistic and this will not be the first time I have moved valuable assets through absolute risk.

On a side-note, well I deem it a side-note for now anyways the brain of this clone is almost done with downloading Minmatar Frigate level V, which means that I will be able to pilot a "Wolf". A "Wolf" is the Minmatar Assault Ship, an upgraded and researched form of frigate. Who knows how this might affect my career since I cannot say that I am not intrigued by hunting other pilots in space, killing them and taking from them just like they have done so many times from me. This won't be a case of revenge, I am merely dipping into the same mechanic that makes me hunt a sale. Morally speaking I will be going for pirates and hope to better my skills as such to find out if I was blessed with said talent.

Anyways, as I said this is just a side-note and I am just a dreamer. I'm just happy that I am able to augment my kingdom - and as with everything in New Eden, for now anyways.
