We can work things so it appears that we are headed into Vargr territory. That would be a logical move to escape pursuit and dispose of the ship."
Flighty nodded. "I've been thinking about that, and once we hit Regina, I think I have a course that will get us where we need to go without being too visible. We'll need to see our cargo so we can use fuel bladders in the hold, but that gives us a 3 parsec range over two weeks (if Terry remembers correctly). From Regina, we head for Rech. It's low tech but has a gas giant. We refuel there and then jump out once the fuel is refined. Then off to Pirema and we have a similar setup and repeat the process. Gileden is 2 parsecs away from there and also is low tech with a gas giant. Then a 3 parsec run to Risek. Seven jumps, no contact with the main world, no transponder running to trace us. By the time we get to Risek and use a different Transponder code, we're 8 parsecs from Regina and as close to untraceable as we can make ourselves. Thoughts?"
Sigrún nods "If we lay in a flight plan or vector for Dinomn and jump on that it adds further cover. In reality we jump one parsec short and then reorient to vector to Rech but anyone tracking our exit from Regina would be none the wiser. That's if we get there. We are but one Jump from Tostig Thorvaldsson's lair on Dinom and it seems he now commands the equivalent of a Raiding Squadron and all the logistical support to run operations. That will include Intelligence operatives and so it's more than likely he will have agents on Jenghe. "Shipwatchers" spotting targets and opportunities as a minimum if not also agents in the field. There will also be soft, bribable Imperial portmen who will take his silver...".

"If we get to Regina alive I might be able to look up some... old contacts". She gives a cold smile "I will have been posted as "Missing presumed Dead" for a while by now and so I might have to convince them I'm not a draugr. However, those that knew me of old wouldn't be so surprised that Hel's realm couldn't hold me... or might not even want me".

Donovan nodded at Flighty's plan. "I can certainly arrange cargo on that plan. We will leave the cargo hold empty enough to accommodate the fuel bladders. We may want to surreptitiously buy additional food and life support consumables."
