In reply to Ledo Typhin (msg # 57):
Ledo, the immediate choices are
Run upwards towards the top of the belt and then angle back down towards Resting. It's the longer route, but would give you the most cover.
Run downwards towards the bottom of the belt and then angle back up towards Resting. That is the quickest way out of the rocks if you wanted to take on the pirate outside of the asteroid field.
You can go straight at the pirate. You'd have to exchange fire but it is the quickest way to Resting.
To give you the best visual I can of your situation:
This is a side view of the asteroid field. The - indicates the belt.
T is Tia. P is Pirate. R is Resting.
