Episode 1.1 - Bpfassh

"It sounds like quite an adventure"

Madre tops off the remaining tube and secured the lids of all three. She beckoned Lissa over to her with a wave, and placed the three tubes inside carefully. With a quick pat on her daughter's head, she carried the basket and set it on the counter near her terminal.

"Thank you Lissa, you can go back to your program now. Remember, I'm still going to check your figures and make sure you did them." Lissa then waved to everyone briefly before she trotted into the back room, and the murmur of an educational program could be heard through the door.

"Shall I ring up the 3 stimpacks with the rest of the supplies, or should I keep those separate?" She smiled at everyone, "Oh, and was there anything else you might need?"

Madre tallies up the cost for the stimpacks and puts them in a small bag and slides them across the counter to Khan. "That'll be 75 credits."

She then tallies up the rest of the order and places it in a large case that would protect all the fragile, sensitive things they'd bought. "And that will be 1,209 credits after tax. You all need anything else, or is that it for today?"

Madre completes the transaction and returns the credstick to Valoris, saying, "There you are, gentle-beings. It was nice meeting you, and I hope you have a safe, relaxing stay in Bpfassh."

She glances at Wuc'vulog, and clears her throat quietly, "While there may be such a market here, as in many other places, I'd take it as a personal favor if you'd not mention it in front of my daughter. She's still too young to understand, and I'd rather her not get any ideas at this age..." She then glances significantly toward the back room, to ensure her daughter is actually studying (just in case).

(OOC: 2 purple difficulty, Thrakazog. Candi was correct.)

As Mado listens for the name of an information broker, he hears, several times, about a Rodian named Adoom Roolek. According to the rumor on the street, Roolek has some kind of feed into all the major news and surveillance sources on the planet. He is frequently described as knowing nearly everything to do with Bpfassh, and that he often serves as a local informant for the Hutts.

Meanwhile, Khan and Wuc'vulog make it back to the Turtle after only 10 minutes of walking. Madre's shop was very close to the spaceport, and only the fact that the ship was parked on one of the emergency pads made them take longer. The ship is buttoned up tight when the two arrive, and their comlinks chime simultaneously.

"Any trouble?" Dr Eliasan's voice sounds tinny through the comlink.
