I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

True, I can attest to that.

One day, during an exercise, the guard on the Ops entrance at ISK brought me a small purple velvet bag with a draw cord. He was a bit worried as he believed on of the USN P3 crews had mislaid it.

In side was a small collection of bones some of which had suspicious dark red stains.

This is NODUFF.
