Episode 1g - Ball Deep

The speeder pulled up to the thirtieth floor of One CorSec Plaza and an officer in dress uniform opened the door. Tisha's legs were soon followed by her body in a startlingly clingy dress. Fenn stepped out next and offered the lady his arm and they both proceeded to the main door. Meanwhile, Lek pulled the speeder smoothly away, heading for the speeder lot downstairs.

The duo are ushered through into a crowded atrium, the wealthiest and most powerful beings in the city are here, with the notable exception of the Diktat; Moff Dupas Thomree. Hoan Russ is in a far corner, kowtowing to a lady in Imperial dress uniform, who must be CorSec Imperial Liaison Saalia Latt, who looks absolutely bored out of her mind.

Fenn's datapad quickly brings up a bio of Saalia Latt; scion of a wealthy Naboo family, above average grades from the Imperial Academy on Raithal. Her record since graduation was also fairly standard; a tour on the ISS Oculus, a Carrack cruiser resulted in a commendation for "loyalty to the Imperial cause". She was duly promoted to Commander and assigned as liaison to CorSec.

It seems that the most likely reason that she would be bored is because she thinks Councillor Russ is beneath her station.

Four large doors in the far wall open in unison and the crowd starts to file through into the main hall, a large room with high, intricately decorated ceiling and many round tables arranged in front of a stage. As the people go through the doors their datapads chime to tell them which table to go to.

Tisha sees no obvious guards around the place, although every third guest is a CorSec officer in their dress uniform. There are camera studs at strategic places around the room which are likely to be monitored.

Fenn's consultation on the datapad gives no insight into what kind of drink Ms. Latt would prefer, but he does spot the lawyer laughing with a CorSec commandant as they make their way into the ball room.

The crowd is visibly thinning in the atrium as they take their places in the great hall. A sudden noise heralds a service door opening about thirty meters to the right, as a service droid clunks out and gets to work removing any debris left behind by the guests.
