A few days later, Planet Hortus.
Alex and Mira were stuck in a conundrum they hadn't foreseen at all.
Their lack of money.
In fact, this wasn't even something Alex had considered ever since he had come back from the Primordial Expanse.
He thought about his situation, and almost found it funny.
He was now a student of Capital Prime University, yet he was poorer than the majority of the federation.
Alex had nowhere to call home, his house on the mining colony had been taken back when he was no longer allowed on the depressing rock.
He had no money to his name, all of his earnings from when he was a miner went straight back into just surviving day to day.
Thinking back to his time in the Primordial Expanse, the only method of money making he had available was to accept missions in the adventurer association, but there was no such thing in the federation.
