How it begins
After your divorce and bankruptcy, it seemed like a good plan to sell your remaining property, have a last drinking binge with friends, and enlist in Space Force. Leave your old failures behind and find a new future in an exotic locale far far away. But now that you're here in the recruitment office the next morning, you wonder if it was such a good plan.
Assuming you decide to go through with it, Van Dussen, you'll need to be processed in. You'll need to fill out a form, decide your gender, take a medical test, get your uniform, listen to an orientation speech, and take basic training. Then you'll be sent onto your assignment in Space Force, and the real adventure will begin!
