Ides of May

Three pilots returned for a second helping after the earlier day mission and were joined by one more fresh pilot at the launchpad. Past the busy streets, the civilian cheers, and bright lights, these intrepid souls took a winding path into the Malden System via the Northern Strand wormhole. Excess managed to run over a canine tooth shaped rock on his navigational thruster, causing an audible hiss that halted the fleet, and had the potential for prolonged disruption were it not for the fortuitous contents of Bane Thunderwolf's patch bag despite Flatbag proper being present on the mission.

Repairs were quick and the pilots continued their journey deeper into the Malden System before wiggling their way back to base along the Mystic Asteroid Belt, via the Anti-Grackle. From there, the fleet dove into deep forest immersion near a nebula for a short and peaceful shore leave. A casual flight home via the Powderhouse and Davis constellations completed the patrol without further incident.
