Desert Rose
Lily Jones stood on the main hull while her cosmo cartographer, Vespa, piloted the Desert Rose. Lily Jones was the Captain of the Desert Rose and a bounty hunter. The spacecraft served as an orbital base center for her team. However, she needed more than four people and needed to recruit more. The last mission she completed could have gone better, and it took too much of her resources and the lives of people very close to her. Vespa stayed loyal, and for her, Lily needed to stay strong and continue moving forward. This mission needed to succeed. The cash prize to catch an escaped fugitive wanted by the Dione space station was the highest value ever posted in a while. Succeeding was crucial if they wanted to survive traveling in deep space. They were on their way to Enceladus, the sixth-largest moon of Saturn. Life on Enceladus was discovered the year the Earth stood still due to the 2020 pandemic, otherwise known as 0 A.C.E. Then, one hundred years later, intergalactic space travel was possible due to stardust and the vibrational energy of the amethyst crystal from the Pallas asteroid.
