Anne Bonny — ship's log

First gate transit of the contract. Traffic Control released the aperture, the Anne Bonny went through, and the crew spent the far side running a full system scan before committing to anything.

• Cleared Medina Traffic Control and transited gate-1356 — the first ring the crew has taken under the First Footing contract.
• Came out at Green Reach: a single stable primary, the star Reach, and seven worlds strung from 0.36 out to 4.06 AU.
• Ran the system scan world by world. Six of the seven are sealed — toxic, barren, a gas giant, and a belt with nothing to stand on.
• Green Reach II is the only world worth footing: terran, 1.13 AU, liquid water, breathable air, and an open habitability rating.
• The system reads as claimed and inhabited, with no contact made. Nobody answered.
