Did I understand this right? I wasn’t sure if the whole “post ideas in the comments section” was from the previous discussion area in the comments section of another challenge or not.
I like the idea, but the execution could use some work. I know that you’re trying to establish a setting more than write a story, though. Still, the line “Sky was full of wrecks just lying there” doesn’t work for me.
I sequel-ed your story, sorry it took so long. However, I have had some trouble with some of stories where they can’t be read. On top of that I actually made a minor mistake with Firus, I hadn’t seen the character portrait on the challenge page until after I posted it so that was my fault. Unfortunately I can’t edit the story because I can’t get to it. I’ll let you know when it is fixed AND edited, unless you don’t mind Firus and his ship being conscripted into His Majesty’s Navy…?
