The Drifter’s Starship Theta is not the first model he’s flown. Many old flying machines littered the landscape of his Home World, overtaken by the natural processes of the trees and the vines. In his time, he was able to refurbish the engines of broken down spaceships for his own use, but never has he seen a starship in such pristine condition; surely this could not come from his Home World. The player is enticed to do battle with the great reflective beast hovering above the valley, if only for the pure joy of collecting the loot it may (or may not) drop. How lucky would the player be, if the last Engram of Uraniae required for their Light-Railgun upgrade is contained within that ship.
