Galactic City

He turned to look at her eyeing her carefully, "You are full of surprises, Cian." he tells her with a tone of approval. There were those that never learned the art of reading people, but it seemed she was a quick study and no doubt it came from how good she was at her job. "But your possibly right it should be enough, will give you time to react after the first shot or attack." It was the most he could ask for, a chance was all she needed, just like with everyone else. "A durasteel plate shutting over the transparisteel after that first impact and you basically have yourself a protective shell here. A secret exit and your good to go."

Tilting her head this way and that, visibly debating the prospect, she eventually nodded affirmatively, there was no harm in getting that done, in the end even if she didn't utilize it for the reasons he was thinking she should get that installed, it was there and that was peace of mind. It would make her feel better anyway, and if she ever sold this place on, all the better.

"I've lived long enough to know that advice from you is probably sound advice. If you think it best, put me in contact with the right people."

"There was talk of joining the GA if control of Rendili was accomplished." he told her. The company being a GA aligned company and the goal is to profit, dragging them into the RGE wont serve that. It would cause problems they didn't want at this time or maybe they did. "There also was talk of going neutral and selling to both sides, though with Corellia possibly siding with the RGE only the GA would be open to us now.""We might have been looking into this all wrong then..." he thinks out loud. "Maybe we should put everything under the Rendili control. It being a GA company, and Anaxes being a RGE planet they could open up a new market without haven't to leave the GA flag?"

"I would be careful myself." Cian said pensively, weighing up the options in her own mind, she was no politician, but she'd dealt with enough of them to realize that they'd be looking at the bigger picture as well as their own gains. The people of the worlds they represented would see the benefits in such an alliance in terms of commerce, but to broarden the spectrum a little, there would be an opportunity for the RGE to get a foothold on things that the GA really didn't wish them to at present.
"The RGE are actively seeking out GA worlds to turn to their cause right now, if Rendili has resisted thus far, it is either because they are not useful to the empire, which I highly doubt, or they do not wish to be a part of the imperial war machine. I would bet my credits on the latter."

Business wise it was another matter, but even so, that's not how it would be seen politically.

"My advice to them would be to remain with the GA for as long as possible. With so many worlds being coaxed into joining the RGE, they'll become a priceless commodity, it would benefit them in the shortrun." Shrugging, she rested back, the hour had grown late and she had just had a full day and then some, "But I am no politician as I said before."

Looking across as him standing there awkwardly, she smiled inwardly, he always seemed to wait on ceremony, always alert, never letting that air drop for a second.

"You want another drink?"

He would be sending her the info she needed later tomorrow, the same people who were doing a job on other residences here on Coruscant at the present. Safe houses, HQs and gathering spots for the Consortium. She would be well taken care of.

I would bet my credits on the latter."

"Anaxes had always been a bastion fortress world safe guarding the Core, where the centralized government ruled for years. The turbulent times after the Vong wars forced them to side with the RGE, talk is they are seeking to side with the GA now. "it was being seen as the deciding factor, they as in the ruling governmental body of Anaxes are backing his bid for power. Profit was their goal, power and importance would come soon enough with the new space docks being talked about.

"My advice to them would be to remain with the GA for as long as possible. With so many worlds being coaxed into joining the RGE, they'll become a priceless commodity, it would benefit them in the short run." Shrugging, she rested back, the hour had grown late and she had just had a full day and then some, "But I am no politician as I said before."

"Tress gaining control of Rendili and forming the Azure Imperium Shipwrights may force Anaxes to switch sides" he tells her honestly. "They smell profit, joining with Tress would bring more revenue to them, in taxes among other things. Even if his goal was to add a space dock down the line and use Anaxes as a construction site for Rendili, they would side with the GA for added protection. IT would be the safe bet...but we shall see soon enough after the announcement of Rendilil changing hands."

"You want another drink?"

"No, I better go. There are alot of details to be taken care of before the night is done. I shall send you that info you wanted and have them call you to set up an appointment." he gave her a formal bow of his head and turned and left.

[Gin Xyrin]

~As the Wolf lowers and docks into the heavy section of the city's spaceports Gin leans against a work bench near the cargo hold hatch sev's voice buzzes over his coms~ "Sir we have docked we are free to release the passengers" ~Chuckling he hits the button opening up the Cargo hold exposing the port to the passengers of the Wolf~ "Thank you all for traveling aboard the Azure Wolf please enjoy the rest of your lives as you leave my ship" ~Gin chuckles as all of the passengers glance at the droids and him before filing off the ship~

~Looking over to his left he catches a glance of the Merc band and hits the button closing off the ship~ "Follow me" ~he says as he walks past the band several protector droids thumping along after him as he turns into the galley and sits in a chair his feet proped up against a table~

~Looking at each other the Leader nods and follows cautiously everything about this man made her uncomfortable but credits are credits and she still held the right to say no and hope he didn't just kill them~ "Let's hear what he has to say and give him the benefit of the doubt" ~hearing a chorus of grunts and one very crude explitive from a less than happy woman they enter the galley~

~waving his hand towards the rest of the seats Gin chuckles smiling calmly at them~ "calm yourselves and take a seat no matter what you will leave here alive so long as you do not attack me or my droids"

"Then what was all that bluster about killing us if we went and tried to hijacked this ship are you to much of a coward to do so" ~The female Twi'lek went to shush the woman only to hear a loud echoing laugh from the giant of a man next to her and a chuckle from a woman across from her~ "That was no bluster he would have done it" ~the man said taking a breath the woman chimming in as he collects himself~ "you can tell by the way he acts and moves trust me"

~Grinning Gin taps his foot against the table shaking it catching every ones attention while he pulls out a datapad and types in a few numbers~ "Can we get back on track" ~he slides the datapad down to the bands leader her eyes widening~ "the top number is just for this talk the bottom is for the next two years" ~the woman turns to him with the deer in the head lights look~ "this is more than we'd make in twice that time please continue"

~Gins grin reaches an all time high~ "you will travel with me you see i've always dreamed of creating a buissness selling weapons, armor, vehicles, and training. creating a private mercenary company the upside is a constant income and if it works out you would still get to do the jobs you love while maintaining a stable enviornment of course buissness takes a cut. the downside is that we will be taking contracts that you may not agree with."

~Nodding the leader looks at him as he stands~ "take a minute to talk amoungst yourselves i'll come back in a couple" ~the band looks at their leader as she nods at him a serious look on her face~

~Pushing the datapad to the middle of the table she stands as the others look at the numbers each reacting in their own manners the teens looking on completely wide eyed, the foul tempered woman growling, and the man that had laughed earlier had fallen from his chair from the force of his laughter~ "This seems like a dream job which means that something is up most likely something with our possible client " ~the foul mouthed one decided to toss in her two cents~ "i say we pass this up our jobs are good enough why should we trust this nut case" ~a silence falls for a moment broken by the sounds of a chair being stood up~ "I say this is a good idea if we can work out a back out clause case this sheet hits the fan and we need to cut all ties" ~the woman that had backed him earlier nodded~ "I agree and i think that the discomfort comes from the fact that he doesn't move like most people and he is very heavily armed for a single individual" ~looking around at everyone The female Twi'lek nods and walks to a droid standing in the room~ "can you tell him we made a decision" ~her voice steady before she jumps~ "tell him yourself" ~poking her head out the door she sees Gin leaning against the wall immediately next to the door~ "you hear everything" ~getting a nod he turns towards her~ "you get half the price if you take the job and need to back out" ~nodding blankly she turns around and walks back to her seat and sits down~

~sitting back down Gin grins as the others talk amoungst themselves waiting patiently~ "the current standing is we will take the job give us a few days to be sure can i get the credits for the meeting" ~the leader comments with a small weary smile on her face~ "yep here you go" ~gin grins as heslips a credit chip across the table to her~ "please tell me your final descision before you do anything major"

~nodding the band starts to move as gin hops out of his seat and to the cargo hold hitting the door to open it watching them walk out as he sits down on a crate directing sev to get some furniture so he can update the galley to something nicer before flipping off the crate as the droids go to work shruging Gin starts to orginize his supplies~

"Uhhh thanks for the ride." Ben says as he files off the ship and stands around in the docking bay trying to figure out what to do next.

[SK]

Before he was on his way to his ship, he decided to take a look at Galactic City. Usually here in the city there is plenty of information for anyone to collect, whether it be by the amount of credits you have, or by brute force, there is plenty of info to gather.

He continues to walk down the streets of the city, not being bothered by anyone, he continues on in search of information.

[SK]

As he is continuing his walk down the city, he feels a great disturbance in the force, as many beings have shifted their emotions from calm to anger in an instant. This just may be the information he is looking for. For there to be anger, there is also hate.

Like any Sith, anger is what draws attention to them. He looks over to the tall skyscraper with the intials "IGU" on the top, and calls for a taxi speeder to take him to the building.
