I've wheedled and nitpicked my contest entry more than enough by now. After adding an epilogue and putting it through another editing pass, it shall now stand as it is, not only to be judged for the contest, but also to be judged worthy of EqD. Wish me luck.

This is likely to be the second most ambitious of all the 15 ships (I'm saving my beloved AppleDash for last and I intend to make that one a doozy) and it may take a while to complete.
