Lasper, Picknar, Thoos, Rodrigo, and Knox flew in the Lasper’s wingship towards the planet. Lasper said, “We’re descending down to Clentity. Let me do some preliminary scouting, and then we can come up with a plan from there.” Planetside, Lasper walked to the ship tow yard where the proprietor informed him, “Yup, we have your pod. Just give me some basic information and pay the fee, then it’s all yours.” Lasper leaned forward and said, “Was there anyone inside it?” The proprietor said, “I sure do hope not. we don’t handle ’em too gently.” Hand to chin in thought, Lasper said, “But why would my friends just leave the escape pod?” The proprietor said, “Well, it’s not like they could use it as transportation around the city.” Realizing that was both true and obvious, Lasper said, “That’s true. Hrm. So, how do I start finding them. They could be anywhere on the planet by now?” The proprietor said, “You could start with the police.” Pointing at him, Lasper said, “I generally find local police to be exceedingly unhelpful.” The proprietor shrugged and said, “Oh, they are. But it’s a conversation, there was a gap, and I was supposed to say something. So, there you go.”
