"Agreed." Said captain Beyla. "Full scale colonization might be risky with so little hope for long term profit, but I do think that in time planets of this system will be colonized by our empire, they're simply too rich for a black hole to devour them all."
The Stargazer remained in the system for a while longer, scanning the many colonizable bodies before jumping away.

In its travels to the new system, the Stargazer hit an unexpected FTL stream doubling its speed. In the instant this occured, a type of turbulence could be felt with the ship shaking moderately before setting into the new speed for a rather uneventful flight.
Upon arriving in system, the first thing the crew realized was that it was dark. Pitch Black with the nearest signs of light being several stars away. The crew felt as if they overshot their target because of the speed boost and landed in the void, but after another moment a stream of information began to flow into the computer systems. They were in the system alright, but instead of a star in the center, there was a massive blackhole devouring the system. It was likely the star simply ran out of fuel and this was the end result in a desperate bid to stay 'alive'.
The system itself was relatively low in resources compared to what they had found earlier. The system contained a single Gas Giant filled with hydrogen with a moon which in earlier in life would have been perfect for life, but now was filled with single cellular lifeforms. In an odd twist of things though, that moon had also contained a much smaller moon orbiting it. This moon, roughly a quarter in size was filled with small insects and mammals which by now had adapted to the cold darkness of the system.
Further out in the system was the asteroid belt, devoid of life and filled with rings of rock and gas.
This system could have been something if it was found earlier, but as it stood now it was simply empty, waiting for entropy to set in place
