The World of Nabushan had forever been changed by the Burning Calamity, a lush world once filled with forests, jungles and vast oceans, now reduced to a dying husk, a former shadow of itself. The vast cities that dotted the surface, now buried under great seas of sand and dirt, or are slowly consumed by the unnatural storms that wreck the Wastelands. But, even over many centuries, life goes on, although struggling through great hardships, it goes on nonetheless. This is too true for those that live life out in the Great Wastes, home to few scavenger communities, their lifeblood being the discovery of valuable loot, be it from resurfacing cityscapes, or more importantly, Space Hulks. Space Hulks are starships that had fallen from orbit, be it before or after the Calamity, it matters not, these down ships, over the centuries were buried in the sands like everything else, all the valuable and relativity intact treasures sealed within for an uncertain amount of time. 

But just like the ruins, the hulks do not stay buried for long, and eventually resurface. The Discovery of Space Hulks is always both a momentous occasion and often times, a tense one. Once word spreads that a Space Hulk has been found, many will no doubt converge onto it's location. Both offering great rewards, as well as bloody conflict. The Oasis States have often participated in hunting down these marvels of lost technology, and often would send armies to hold and secure them. To no surprise, wars have been fought over to loot the hulks dry of all useful technology, occasionally ending with no clear victor. And very soon, this will repeat once more. 

[b][u]Somewhere in the Great Wastes....Some weeks before[/u][/b]
A lone big-wheeled dune buggy was traversing the Southern Wastes, a more rugged, rocky, if still sandy region of the Great Wastes.Atop the more open space of the buggy was a small collection of rusted out items and parts, all strapped together by several ropes, barely holding on to the vehicle and were on the verge of falling out. Inside the vehicle were three human individuals, the driver, a young woman in her early twenties, and the two male passengers, appearing not too much older then the young woman. They all held firmly to their seats as they drove through the rocky wastes, all had rather somber expressions upon their faces. "It aint' much." One of the men spoke up, trying to lighten the mood. "But it's better then nothing and got out alive to boot."

"So damn close." The woman spoke up. "That buried town was a gold mine, fucking raiders.." She spat out the window, snarling. "We could've been set up good! Live out in some Oasis Town, the good life!"

The second man spoke. "Well, we can at least get a good meal after this." 

"That much is true." The other said. "I need a grot stew." 

"Someday..." the woman mumbled, her foul mood however would take a different turn as she had spotted something on the horizon, squinting her eyes, she spotted a large brown mass that was quickly on approach. "Sandstorm!" the others jumped in a panic to her cries. "Get us in cover!"

"I'm trying!" the bugger sped even faster through the rough terrain, trying too find shelter from the impending storm. Salvation came as several particularly tall rocks stood in their path. "Thank the gods!" she shouted as they sped towards their barrier. And like that, they sat they sat there, waiting for the storm to pass over, outside, they could barely see a thing, now covered in an endless stream of sand. Some hours pass, the storming finally dying down as they could clear see the landscape once again, much to their relief. The trio resume their journey back home, the situation howver would change moreso as they left their cover, only to discover something truly wonderful. "Oh my gods..." the woman said. The buggy halting once more, the scavenger trio stepping out of their vehicle.

"I'll be damned...we just found a hulk of all things..."
