Message in a Bottle
The Trader vessel “Sibelius” above a city of the Others, in Galaxy 6.
A dead city covered with dust, just waiting to be explored.
I must explain how they got here….......
The Grantrisss are a inquisitive race, but not very intelligent, they travel the cosmos picking up floatsome & jetsome, things long discarded by other races.
They study what they find and then sell it at the Galactic Recycling Depot on Grayling V.
But some things were worth keeping, one such item was an antique pottery jug, it was also sealed with a tech ring of unknown origin. Having tried over many years to decode the symbols and so find the password, they finally gave up, still it was an intriguing item, not something to throw away.
It was eventually sold to a human Trader for 500 credits, the Traders and their families of course live in space on their vessels.
This Trader had bought this jug for his daughters 10th birthday, that day arrived and she was presented with the jug, she lifted it out of the box and as soon as she touched it, dropped it and the top broke off.
Within an instant a hollo of a man emanated from the jug, it was a message asking for assistance, from a planet in Galaxy 6.
Everyone knew Galaxy 6 was a fantasy,a myth, no being had ever found or visited it. Legends said that within that space there was a nebula filled with treasures.
Still, it was a myth, not real, but the message did say whoever answered would be rewarded handsomely.
Plus there was a chart.
It was worth exploring.

You have such great stories to go with your fantastic artwork. Love the classic saucer ship and the foreground makes me wish for a 360 degree view.
