We reached the Warp Gate that would send us towards the Inner Colonies and all of us were gathered on the bridge as we prepared for the jump.
Amongst my crew, the only people who had been to the Inner Colonies were Amber, Yumiko and Mara so it was a new experience for everyone else. That's why we were gathered here for this 'historic' event.
Normally, Warp Gates would have automated defense platforms surrounding it to protect them but aside from that, everyone was pretty much free to use them to come and go.
But aside from having even more defense platforms surrounding the Warp Gate we were currently in front of, it seems like they even set up a sort of security checkpoint as well.
There were various patrol and defense ships that were hovering around the Warp Gate and every ship that was trying to use the Warp Gate had to go through an inspection first.
We joined the queue at the back as the line of ships ambled forward at a constant pace.
