Here we see nomadic space trader Blaze retrieving a shiny that she's sure will fetch quite a price, maybe even enough to upgrade her ship's nutrient dispenser so it dispenses a shape other than cubes. Along for the ride is her companion and pet truzzle*, Tuzzy... that beady-eyed furball hanging on to her tail by its mouth.
* - What the hell is a "truzzle"? Isn't it just a cheap knock-off of a tribble? Well, according to the inscription on the ancient vault where Blaze found it, a truzzle is "A trans-dimensional horror born of the nightmares of the insane of a thousand doomed worlds. It also purrs." For her part, Blaze can't rule out that she might have made a mistake or two in translating the inscription, but Tuzzy does purr... and persons who boarded her vessel while she slept did vanish mysteriously.
