You can use a semicolon to replace "because" in some cases if the two clauses are independent and closely related in meaning. In the example, "I started the mission; it sounded fun," the two clauses are independent and could be joined by "because" or a semicolon. So, both versions are correct.
MashaAllah , The best teacher ever.
