OOC:[sblock]On the layout of the apartment...will get you guys a basic map put together if necessary, but it basically IS the floor you're on. i.e. the turbolift opens up to the entranceway into the main room itself. It is, of course, locked in such a way that people can't randomly walk in, but there's no other part of the floor from that turbolift that there is access to.[/size][/sblock]
Even with the assistance of electrobinoculars, it was difficult for Garret to get a good view of the Academy. It must have been huge, as even though it was easy to notice against the various other buildings, it was on the opposite end of the sprawling city. Towers and walkways and speeder lanes blocked most of the view of the Academy beyond the traffic that was coming and going from what had to be private landing bays, but at this high level you couldn't see any signs of defense structures. There had to be some, of course, especially with an Academy located in such a large city, but from this distance all you could tell was it was quite large and assume from that its defenses were likely equally impressive.
It takes a few moments, but Istara's comm message to Sienar is answered by the screen flickering and then a small holo-image of a human woman with sharp, hawkish features glaring through. She speaks quickly and as if she had been interrupted, giving a business-like opening explaining that you have, in fact, contacted Sienar Fleet System's Corulag office. After the scripted part, the woman's eyes narrowed a bit more, "What exactly do you want?"
