Just happened to be there, and as eager an me to be inconspicuous and part of a couple leaving town instead of a single person. The authorities were waiting for someone at the ET-line, and she helped him escape. In the off-chance you haven't seen the footage yet, it was 10 min after the arrival of carrier 12-36B, about 16.57hrs.She'll be having dinner with me at The Orangery in about an hour, if you want to 'nap her.The two agents following me at the K'Kree camp were dressed as tourists. They weren't very skilled and looked like (gives description).Then there was a bungling K'Kree slave, but you wouldn't need to worry 'bout him.So, how's the eye of that navy officer I smashed?"********The restaurant, 'bout twenty minutes before Eleanor is supposed to arrive."Sure, Saanath. There is a lot of fishy stuff going on, and you guys, and now me as well, are smack in the middle of it. Reminds me of my old scouting days" Gwydion says with a grin."Anyway, 'bout your holding. I understand you guys have all bought part of the ship. I can add 200K, which should buy me a part of the holding, and which gives us a bit of cashflow for repairs, maybe an upgrade in weaponry or sensors, whatever the rest of the crew decides, and we'll have the costs of repairs and such. And then I'll drop 50K in the crew funds for some speculative trading if we can't fill up the entire cargo hold.""But going in under an Aslan Clan name? The Aslan Clans that are at war with the 'Trel Clan will try to screw us over, and the Clans that are united with the 'Trel will try to kill us as soon as they realise we're just assuming the name without permission from the 'Trel. Which means that, after a while, ALL Aslan will want to chew us up. We'll have to fight one duel after another, and I'm not all spit and vinigar in a fight anymore. Especially if you get one of these hardcore conservatives who won't even allow a sword, just these clawknives, I don't know if I can pull that off again." Gwydion says, rubbing one of his many scars subconciously.He chuckles. "And that is before they realise we're doing this for an Aslan that was dishonoured and landless. That's when they'll get REALLY pissed off."****"Remember Eleanor, the trader that was our passenger on the last trip? She 'happened' te be at the K'Kree camp at the same time as I, was about as eager to get away unnoticed, and helped a man escape from the police at the ET-Line here at the starport. She'll be joining us for dinner in a few minutes. Horse steaks." He says with a big grin."I don't trust her a bit, but she's young, pretty and intelligent, so she should make for some nice company."</blockquote>
