As for the swearing, nothing terribly specific in our code on it. Not to say it is not frowned upon. After my years in the war, I tend to take it more as a guide line than a rule book." *Using the force, the Jedi drew up a stool, but instead of sitting on it, he rested a foot on it, leaning forward towards the Mando's. He turned his head to the side slightly, his zabrakian facial tatoes obvious.* "I wonder how many battle droids each of you are worth... Good droids! Not these scraps that the Confederacy use." The Echani Mandalorian looked at the Givin representative, intentionally ignoring the Jedi as though he was merely a child tugging on his pant leg while the grown-ups talked. "Well now, I was under the impression the spike head here was just out babysitter. It appears the Republic really doesn't trust your people." He stared at the Jedi as he finished the thought "perhaps that's why they've been so lax with your security, and perhaps the reason they've ignored your remarkable engineering skills." It was well known that Fondor and Bothawui were armed to the teeth and well defended with their own fleets. A single Venator was on station to defend Yag'Dhul. His attention returned to the Givin. "I offer contracts for shipbuilding and a boost to your security, in return we'd like a place to rest our heads and repair as we prepare for our next assignment." and again, the only attention he payed the Jedi, was a glance in his direction as he finished the thought. "assignments spike head's superiors will be supplying." OOC: Also, when will we get the results for Mechis III? That battle will decide how this goes down. Sorta... ish.

But what can you expect from war mongers?" *He turned to the Givin* "Come, apprentice, it is time to resume your real duties." *With that, the Jedi tossed the Givin a lightsaber, which he caught deftly, as if it was a practiced maneuver. With that, they strode towards the door, motioning for the Republic Soldiers to show the Mando's to their ships* *Before the door closed though, the Zabrak glanced back, almost seeming to chuckle at the Mando leader* "Its a shame, I had a well paying assignment lined up for you that one with your skills would be simple." *With that, the door thundered shut again, as the Republic Soldiers opened the door nearest their guests and prepared to lead them to their ships* *OOC: You didn't think that they Jedi would give them an actual chance to defect, did you? And yes, that was all pre-planned. As for Mechis III out come, tomorrow morning. As to why, as I am sure you are wondering...

Or why they agreed so quickly? Or why the Mandos sent an Echani to negotiate? This is awesome! "They bought it sir" The transmission was garbled and weak, but the encryption was heavy and it'd take a week for even the best Republic slicers to decypher. Fortunately they only needed it to hold up for a few days, if that. "Very good. Stall, we are nearly there and the preparations have already begun." Dar'yaim cut the feed to his agent and motioned for an update. "Sir, our strike team is in position on the station but reports that the Jedi are trying to send them away earlier than planned." "Very well, we must push up the timetable. Is our contact in position?" "Indeed" "Then we go" And with that Dar'yaim marched down the ramp of the shuttle, no pomp or circumstance, with a team of his best warriors and they headed straight for the Body Calculus's main chambers only a short walk away. The Jedi think themselves so smooth. The ploy, with the Givin diplomat or rather Jedi, was well played. But while a Givin Jedi was certainly not anticipated, Dar'yaim hardly expected to get anywhere with the Republic breathing down his neck and so the solution was quite simple. Cut out the middleman, contact a Givin politician they 'knew' to provide access, and address the Givin without Republic interference. It also helped that he had a holo of the Republic's little Jedi stunt along for the trip, and the Jedi themselves had been revealed without much effort.

After a few more moments of thought, he leans forward and motions to his servants to bring forth the next batch of delicacies.* "You are, and always have been, some what of an enigma Adrian..." *He shifts his weight side to side, as if nervous* "You see, no one leaves Black sun, yet you live. Nor does anyone try to sway a Black Sun Vigo against Lord Xizor..." *He abruptly stands* "Out of our past comrady I must order you to leave." *He raises his hand to silence the response* "It is both my duty and obligation to kill you where you stand, Adrian. As an old friend, leave in peace." *He took his chair again, finally able to sit still, though his right hand seemed to rest on his thigh, as if ready to draw a blaster that wasn't there...* 'Adrian grins' He always was a fool. " You are correct I left the suns and yet I live and That must mean something.I have to asked did you hear about what happened to Cash Cash Garrulan he was a retired Vigo hunted down by the Imperials Xizor,his allies if am not mistaken.I wonder how long it takes for the same thing to happened to You Xist. Think about it. 'Adrian signals his guards it was time to leave' "Thank you for your time lord Xist I had a wonderful time me and my men will leave you to finished your celebration but Xist never forgot I was always one Xizor favorite for a reason but I'll be seeing you have a nice night.

Silenceo Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 *A week has passed...* Outcomes: The Farewell Coalition has arrived in the Zhar System, with the negotiations with Lord Xist proving unfruitful. The Galactic Inquisition's business on Ord Mantell has hit a few snags, delaying action. Mando Werda is preparing to make its move on Yag'Dhul, hoping to catch the Republic unprepared. Salty's fleet has dispersed, carrying out various orders, and the meeting with the Council has its effect. New: The Zhar System is currently deserted, with only the Farewell Coalition present. On Ord Mantell, the Governor is acting fishy, and an unusual number of guards have joined his staff. Over Yag'Dhul a small fleet has arrived for refuel, rearment and R&R. 1 Venator, 2 Acclamator, 4 CR90's. Salty has received a message, that is from the Council. It must be important... Battle Outcome: Venator crippled and captured by boarders 8 Corvettes destroyed, 2 escaped 3 Acclamator's destroyed, 1 captured 3 Strike cruisers destroyed 4 Jehavey'ir-type cripplingly damaged 2 Jehavey'ir-type destroyed 1 Strike cruiser damaged 100 X-83's lost 75 Skiprays damaged 10 skiprays destroyed Venator fighters destroyed Details: Due to those special upgrades on those Interceptor frigates, they were able to execute the first stages of the plan wonderfully, with the ground force making land fall and the second group being able to strike against the Venator. Despite this, the Republic crew would not go down easily. The acclamator crew's panicked, with two colliding near the end of the battle in a rush to escape. The Corvettes were able to dodge and weave between the enemy ships and deal quite a bit of damage to those start of the art star fighters before the skiprays managed to deal much damage to them. When their numbers dwindled, the last 2 corvettes put power to engines and slipped away.Due to the opening ruse working, the Interceptors were also able to off load their troops in one of the Acclamator's as well as the Venator. Despite the early damage and advantage taken by the Mando Werda, the Republic ships were still able to coordinate a defense which managed to destroy and cripple many of the invading forces. As soon as the Venator was taken however, their morale was shattered. Victory goes to the Mando Werda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
