A Busy Week on Sigma Station!



A New Craze on Sigma Station

by liquidhalo231

A new craze has taken Sigma Station by storm. To the average person, climbing through a dusty vent is not something you do everyday. But a new group of people calling themselves "Vent Ninjas" are causing a stir in the public transportation sector. The craze of climbing through a vent seems to be catching on, for one reason because it offers quick and easy travel to other areas.

These so-called "Vent Ninjas" appear to be highly knowledgeable in the layout of the Sigma Station airflow system and use the system for daily travel around the station. It seems that this craze is gaining momentum, as a new book on this subject is in the works. Although it is at present untitled, it should be available at Euphrates Book in Biodome A on Isis soon.

This reporter reminds you not to venture into the vents without the required tools, as you could get stuck. Authorities say that climbing through air vents is not illegal but urge the public to close vents after they have used them and always take caution.

Security Alert

Rumours of criminal activities of a fraudulent nature are being strenuously denied by the Station's command staff. However it has been learned that at least one resident of the station has been incarcerated by authorities for illegal financially-related activities.

Authorities stress that there is no reason to be alarmed but remind residents that financial activities aboard Sigma Station are closely monitored by the Core security systems. Station Patrol Bot 4X1Z remains on high alert for other such behaviour.


Price Drop Announced

The Constellation Network has announced a new pricing scheme wherein travellers may opt to purchase a return ticket bundle at a reduced price when travelling to Isis from Sigma Station and back. One way tickets between the station and Isis are still available for purchase at the normal price of 500c each way, but the round trip ticket is available for 800c.

Network representatives stated that they hoped the reduced prices will encourage more travel to Isis and stimulate the economy.
