OOC: She knows nothing of the landhold other than the name of the planet, Bleue Mer. Mentioning that will elict the following.
"Then I'm afraid you must be misinformed Madame. There're no Aslan on Belue Mer that I am aware of, Pharmacorp have an Imperial Charter to the whole planet. So unless they are Pharmacorps' vassals?"
A search of the database, based on the names she thinks she has, turns up nothing.

The waitress gives Ktarle a very odd look, "A human and a Vilani? Um, okay. You'll find them out the back. They're expecting you, anyone else going to turn up or is your little group full for now?". She makes a vauge gesture in the right direction, following it will bring the group back together in the back room (Apart from Trelene anyway).

Saanath, male human budding merchant trader
Saanath nods, trying to play it like its no big deal. But he can't hold it together, and breaks into a huge grin.
"Yeah. A ship, something like a plan and almost a crew. Which would be where you come in."
Saanath outlines the mission in general terms, crouching it in terms of a specualtive trading mission and avoiding the more sensitive areas until they can talk more openly.
ooc: Was waiting for Gwyndon to handle this. Its really just a formality, no?
So shall we move things on. If so, Saanath plans are to 1) get access to the scout database if he can, 2) and work on putting together a cargo.

OOC:
Saanath can try to get access to the Scout database - that would however be hacking it and probably not welcomed if they found out.
Gwydion will have access, maybe not to anything classified or secret, but hey, it's an almost uninhabited ball of water, what can be classified about that?

ooc: Didn't think he would, but I wanted to make sure and don't want to let him in via Gwydion without Dr Zombie's say so.

Browsing for potential cargos brings up a long list, even narrowing the search criteria to a 90 degree arc around the direction you want to go in and limiting the lots to one the Vyrkris can carry neatly still doesn't narrow it down much. You could fill the hold 10 times over, if not more. Checking the passanger listings and travel agents tells you that the pattern is the same for personal travel.
It looks like getting a cargo from Dukh will be a doddle, the difficult bit will be getting the next cargo. The trade slowdown here has really messed with a lot of peoples' supply chains and will have had a knockon effect throughout the sector. Normal established routes have been shaken up, and suppliers are looking for new markets, whilse buyers are looking for new suppliers. A lot of people will be losing money because of this, and this won't make the Emperor (or, incidentally, you lot) popular. On the other hand, the smart, brave and lucky will be able to make a killing.
The quick thing to do is to decided the route you want to take and and look for cargo that needs to go there.
The smart, but difficult, thing to do is to work out whose supply chains have been disrupted, and go to the places that look likely to need help putting them back together.
Amongst the choice cargos:
A large lot of agricultural equipment bound for Shirgegge, this needs to get there before the harvest and is very time critical. Getting the Vryrkis in a condition to ship this would mean a few 18 hour days getting her ready to leave soon.
460-687, various parts for high-end white goods and kitchen appliances. Not that interesting, but it will pay well
Mistletoe, premium watermelons. Something of a luxury on a desert world, they can't stay on the plant for ever and they can't be harvested and left in storeage.
Bleue Mer, monthly supply run to a research station is overdue. It's not critical, but they will be glad to see you.

Trelene decides that she should wait for the others' input before deciding what to get to put in the hold. So she spends the time studying on her new past time of alien technology.

Trelene spends a pleasent afternoon catching up on local stories on alien technology. Notable developments recently:
Exhibition of Sydite musical instruments, designed to be played by people with 4 arms. This was accompanied by a notable Sydite orchestra who've been staying on Dukh, giving a series of recitals. They've overstayed what with the restrictions and need a fast ship to thier next engagements on Shikirmi.
The Hivers have set up a trading mission on Gashuki, no one has yet got back from there with much in the way of goods, but Hiver gear is normally high-tech, high-quality. In any case the gear Hivers use, as oppossed to manufacture for trade, is appreciated by connisseurs of alien tech simply because it's designed by and for such a different species.
A K'Kree trade mission was due to arrive at Dukh, but instead they are waiting on Shirgegge - where they are no doubt being kept a good way away from the local ranchers. They'll probably have some interesting and unusual stuff, though trading with them is always um, interesting.
