After hearing the offer Zailor looks at the rest of the team.
I don't think we will get a better offer at the moment.

Creds forks over the credits. "Thanks for the tip, pal," he tells the attendant. "Ndral and Tomin get along OK? What's their rapport like?"

"They seem pleasant enough, but I don't believe they've ever worked together. It's rare you need two explorers pouring over star charts and working out experimental hyperspace jumps." A small machine on the counter spits out a flimsy card which he hands to you. "There you are, good hunting."

'Split up and sound out our two leads?' asks Ken.

"That plan sounds risky, but I can't deny it's efficiency."
Dec 27, 2024 9:46 pm
Sounds like a plan.

Ken strides off looking for Ndral.

"I presume its my turn to follow Ken." AD-hoc says to the others as he goes to vatch up to the Rodian

well, that leaves the two of us. Shall we?
Zailor looks after the other two for a second and then turns to Creds.

Ken heads into the lounge area, the tables are dispersed evenly around the area, not in rows. There are a total of eight Ocsin, all but two sitting alone. Doana Ndral looks you over as you approach. She has the typical Ocsin appearance, black pupil-less eyes; white, translucent skin and complexion, and a little too slender for standard Humans. She takes a sip of her lightly colored drink and indicates the chair across from her.

To Ken he can barely tell an Ocsin apart from any other humans - all hideously smooth like walking farm animals, with their disconcerting wide mouths and freakishly small mouths - eugh. Still, he was used to them now and managed to disguise his revulsion as he took the chair opposite the guide, paying no attention to AD-hoc and his comfort (if such a thing exists for droids).

'Doana Ndral - a pleasure to meet you,' he says with his reptilian charm. 'I have heard good things about you and your skills.'

OOC:
At this stage I thinl Ken just wants to smarm his way into Ndral's good graces. So he's going to lay it on thick.
OOC:
And fail horribly of course! Maybe he is utterly uncharming and does nothing to win her over but there's something about Ken that interests Ndral (Advantages)

Doana grins slightly at Ken's overly thick approach. Giving him a second to get seated, she replies almost playfully, "Thank you for the compliment, I assume your here to discuss how to use my skills to find some far flung mystical world full of treasure and untold dangers?"


Ndral

Slightly taken aback, Ken replies, 'Yes, that is exactly what we're here to discuss. Do you have any particular mystical worlds you'd recommend?' He decides to hold back on the name of Fananeen for the moments. It's not on the star charts and he wants to see whether the discovery of ancient technology there is common knowledge yet.

"That depends, are you hunting big game for someone's private collection, looking for piles of abandoned treasure or did you have some specific lost tech you'd like to recover? The guild's private maps have nearly 500 star systems that aren't on standard maps. Of those, there's probably a hundred discovered systems that were inhabited and many more that none of us have ever stepped foot on."

AD-hoc watches on as the two appear to do what seems to be some sort or social . . sparring . . dance type of conversation.
Jan 6, 2025 6:27 pm
'I've heard that a particularly rich cache of lost tech has recently come to light. Which is why we're here,' says Ken, holding back a smile. He's enjoying the interaction. 'As to what sort of lost tech,' he can't help but let his grin show, 'Something subtle, something sneaky, if you know what I mean?'

She smiles at Ken's excitement, "Just so you're aware, everything discovered by our clients is confidential. Anything you might find, I would never report. But I know of two places that might fit the bill, unless you already have a system in mind."


Ndral

'That depends - I'm thinking of a world beginning with the letter F and ending with the letter N, how about you?' he asks playfully - struggling with his pronunciation of Galactic Basic.

Now that she's into the conversation more, Ndral leans forward. "It's surprising how much that does narrow things down. From just that your either looking for Fethean or Fananeen I, or Fananeen II. I've been to Fethean and it's more of a big game planet, very exotic and lethal. One of the guild members recently updated the notes on the Fananeen system, mentioned an installation or ruined city site. That sounds like what your after."


Ndral

'And is that one of the locations you were thinking of?' asks Ken. Wondering if there might be any other even more suitable site.
