elcome to Aluna Station, one of the newest and most illustrious stations in this part of the galaxy. If this is your first time here, welcome. If you are a returning guest, thank you for dealing once again with the Magi Corporation and we hope you enjoy your stay on station.”

*The Magi Corporation will not be held responsible for any personal injury, loss, or death while on station. Nor does this imply a contractual obligation on the part of the Magi Corporation to guarantee a certain level of enjoyment to all sentient visitors.*

“On station, you will find retailers from over fifty different planets as well as representatives from the UVAQ-20; the largest and most illustrious mega-corporations in the known universe, including the Magi Corporation, the Deus Syndicate, UES Intergalactic, and many, many others.”

*Aluna Station, its parent company, or any Magi Corporation employee will not be held responsible for the actions of said or not said representatives, corporations, or sentients therein.*

“The Magi Corporation commissioned Aluna Station ten fiscal years ago as a welcoming oasis in space, far from any particular government jurisdiction, wherein all sentients may interact with other sentients without fear of recrimination or persecution, thus fostering a sense of brotherhood, sisterhood, and all other applicable sentienthoods.”

*While the Magi Corporation respects all sentient laws and traditions, by entering the station, all sentients and corporate representatives tacitly agree to conduct themselves as per the Terrasit Accords. A copy of said accord can be found at any one of the numerous visitor consoles throughout the station at no additional cost, as per the Terrasit Accords.”

“As you see here, Aluna Station is a Gennet-style station. The central spire radiates a Cronin field that emulates the gravity on Bylar Prime. But don’t think we’ve forgotten about you, Jenuens. We have created planet-designated areas throughout the station, so whatever your racial, special, sexual, or other needs, Aluna Command is here to help.”

*This message by no means implies a contractual agreement, requiring Aluna Command, Aluna Station, and/or the Magi Corporation to fulfill the needs of all sentient beings. The Magi Corporation may also deny or revoke access to the station, so long as it is not based on racial, special, or sexual basis, as per the Terrasit Accords. All rights reserved.*

“There are three main sectors on Aluna Station. Alpha Sector, Delta Sector, and Epsilon Sector. From there…”

“Would you put that thing away?” said Fletcher, shutting Zag’s PCD.

“But I was just getting to the good part,” said Zagarat, following Fletcher out of the maglift. “Besides, I’ve never been on Aluna Station before.”

“Well, you’re not gonna learn anything useful from that Magi vid,” said Fletcher. “Just follow my lead. I’ll show you the truth about this station.”

Aurora appeared at the end of the corridor. “Should I send the bail credits now or wait until you’re formally charged?”

“Ignore her,” said Fletcher. “She’s just jealous she can’t go with us.”

“It’s true,” said Aurora. “It’s been so long since someone’s pointed a gun at my head.” She vanished then reappeared before Fletcher.
