Talk:Neo-Space Princess

Ovsol.Nestmile.Nivium.Cibo.18.Avrora

18th awakening of the Cibo twig of the Nivium branch family of Nestmile.
Icy New Life of the Neosiran Taiga on her first solo mission shepherding a self-piloting ship to Krill carrying 23,000 tons of raw gene-silk and unwittingly accepted an offer to be an approximately local guide to none other than the newly installed Margrave.
Hilarity almost certainly ensues.
