Thousands of pilots are flooding through Witberg these days, but what drives them there? This reporter went to find out and discovered a new wave of 'Bogeril Fever' was responsible.With InfinitiCorp recently announcing that the gate to der Todesengel was nearing completion, traffic thru the Alpha Centauri system has been at an all new high. Local residents have commented that "not even the ancient gate opening generated this amount of interest." So one must ask, what is it about this new gate that can grab the attention of so many?
The answer to that is simple: the Bogeril. Yes that's right, those strange backwater residents of Alpha Centauri are said to have their homestead in the der Todesengel sector. While EarthCorp personnel was unwilling to comment on this, several of the brave test pilots using the der Todesengel gate where willing to comment. "They're a strange bunch out there," said one pilot "but they don't mind sitting down and talking your ear off, that's for sure." Another pilot commented "They're a right nice people, just wish they'd clean some of this junk up every once in a while is all."
Newer pilots are warned that there are some dangers in this strange new area. "Some of them darn (Scuttle) Bugs are right nasty, they breed them big out there." This reporter advises pilots to seek protection in numbers if having to travel past any of the Scuttle Bug areas in der Todesengel.
