We weren't going to just go rushing off to the next nest to start clearing it of course… I also want a break too…
I'm not like some people who can get infinite satisfaction from killing bugs.
It may not be physically exhausting, but it definitely does wear me down mentally, especially since I was using my mind to kill them.
Just as Yumiko had predicted, Nerissa received the order from the military to leave the planet for time off from the combat zone.
Since we also decided to take a break, we offered to fly her off to the nearest civilian station where she could spend some time off until she could return again.
We had to make two jumps which brought us to a rather standard habitat station which obviously wasn't much to write home about.
We are, after all, at the fringes of Outer Colony space right now, so we can't expect any luxury accommodations.
And because of that… Nerissa took one look at that station and pleaded to let her stay on board our ship instead.
