Giving a plug for Mechanical Frog's FanFic set in the ilClan era.  The story begins with our intrepid explorers travelling spinward from Antallos.  Interesting story so far, thought it was worth sharing.  Playlist link below:

The first one is the only one I have time for tonight, but it looks well put together!  :thumbsup:

I'm doing my own take of the fate of the Explorer Corps on the Rimward side of the Sphere elsewhere...  8)

They've been pretty good to date. Well worth taking a listen to.

Also pay attention to the screen picture of the desk. Things move around and change in ways that potentially could be clues or enhance the stories.

This series has come to an end. For now. I would recommend if you have not given this a listen yet that you do so.
