KSP 2: Building and flying a Laythe SSTO!

It is another exciting day my dudes, for we at long last manage to create a Laythe-capable SSTO! There were lots of twists and turns along the way, including (as always) many a Kraken attack. But perhaps the Kraken attacks were justified, after all, the entire mission hinged upon a very dubious allegience I formed with the beast.
