I hate this.
I want to go back there now... only ever found two terraformable landables. One, a moon out in COIYLZ, and this one... A planet with volcanism... One for the next trip.

I'm planning a visit anyway. Do you remember if they were particularly hard to reach?
Check the whitespaces between the numbers, its not 1710, its 1, 7, 10
Consider Rep+1 for this, i cannot give unfortunately.

Yeah, i'm having another scan over all of the mythological side of things now. I thought i had something with the Underworld part of it related to the Heart and Soul... Life and Death so close together. And these 'Five rivers' that run in between.
The Entrance to the Underworld relating to what Drew Said "Front and Center" of the Two Nebula's. But all of said "river's" are in the human bubble.
Styx and Lethe are systems.
Charon is a planet in the Sol system
I have seen Acheron somewhere... cant remember though.
No idea about Phlegethon, Cocytus.
And wasn't Oceanus an Imperial ship something to do with Salome?
My brain is fried with only being involved in the mystery for only a week [wacko] taking it all in now is challenging. I'm not getting anywhere yet.

Cant remember any problem in a 31ly asp at the time. Don't think I used mats either.

Yeah, I've bashed around the 'entrance to the underworld' concept a few times, and not managed to leverage anything.
I've also tried chasing down Cerberus and other 'guardians' of the underworld.
Interestingly, Geras (Old Age) is one of the entities said to sleep by the entrance to the underworld. I have a feeling that rare goods are going to factor into this somewhere.
Figured out what might be the difference in the witchspace tunnel on the way home. Know what it is?
And I paid special attention to it out in the rift.
The outside of the tunnel spins wildly in the rift. Towards the bubble, its almost rock solid, with just a few perturbations.
Check it yourselves.

Perhaps it's related to distance from Sol.
Have you tried flying 10kLY 'east' and checking it there?
I wonder if that means where it spins wildly, it's pointing somewhere.
The logs refer to passing the h&s nebulas, how pretty they are & a desire to explore them, there's no mention of anything in particular in there. Why do you think there is?
Personally I think they're nothing more than a gateway to the dynasty region, of which we've just mapped a tiny portion so far.
Nope, and on the way back to the bubble for repairs and cash in time.
Cool, Rift mystery solved. Well done Cmdr.
They did say we would probably not recognise it when we saw it
I don't, i'm just placing the idea that something might be there. But i see i'm on my own here and the only one pointing towards the h&s nebula's, outnumbered ten fold. Could be anywhere, there are multiple thousand systems in the Rift, i'm just going off what's been given to us. Don't worry about it, i think everyone has split wildly anyway, nobody has the foggiest where to go. And constantly jumping to system's isn't fun anymore.
Fully agree with this. The story is about Kahina. Most of the hints are connected with the development of her character.
The rift is part of this. Not the other way around.
What jump range has it got?

Lol, no worries
Now that's what I was thinking of!
Oh, & that is sort of the directions the 4 beacons line up in too.

P R U * A E S C S * H W - S * B 3 1 - 2 * C D * 1 * c Y S *3 4 * 1 * 35 27 25 19 * 7 17 21 23 1 7 8
The 178 at the end assume the coded message is shifted like the otseaf message but,,,
could this be the missed clue
35 27 25 19 * 7 17 21 23 1 7 8
latitudes bases
h -9 -26 36 51
c -7 xxx xxx ???
r -17 -23 -34 21
a hint to search those latitudes?
51 an outlier or that 178 is off in someway?
longitudes
h 21 -12 103 -155
c -35
r -77 -174 -76 19
doesn't look like any pattern there.
What jump range has it got?
31-32LY fully armed with a 3A Prismatic Shield and SCBs (just in case!) as well as L5 Dirty Drives and a few other mods.

About mythologic stuff: you forgot Tartarus and Aphodel which are systems too. Maybe Elysia for "Les Champs Elysées" which is the best place in the greek hell.
Cocyte and Phlegeton are afffluents of the Styx. maybe it's why they seems not relevant. Or they are not system but celestial bodies.
Sometimes i think if they so many surface stations for engineers, they could have added some special ones.

My apologies, i cannot remember the CMDR name of the person who originally noticed the 'green octopus' structures in the hyperspace tunnel. I believe I dismissed your observation before, and at this time must apologize for that. I'm starting to see those, too. HYPIAE AIM CZ-A D2.
Mild space madness, perhaps. Still.

APB: Pilots should be on the lookout for ships registered as the "Inauris", "Perscelides" or "Armillam". Armed and dangerous. Do not approach or contact but report to nearest Imperial Authority. Last seen in Daibo.

Only five of the seven veils were destroyed that leaves two, the earrings and bracelets or anklets.
I surmise those are the get away ships.
The second could also be the Manacles, but that's boring and the same in English and Latin.
