Seeking Mrs. Brightway Part One
An important mission sends Orega Vala elsewhere, leaving Vortimax Weer and Beedo on their own. They find themselves on Alderaan, at a secret lakeside Rebel base. Their mission commander, Major Devan Brightway, advises them that the information Beedo, Vala, and Weer brought back from Dathomir will be investigated, but that other matters have arisen that need attention.
Borissz Vialles, a Duro information broker who has been reliable in past dealings has contacted the Rebellion with some information to sell - this information is regarding a potential rescue of Princess Leia Organa, who is still in Imperial hands. Vialles has agreed to meet Rebel agents on the resort planet Carcasso, and Weer and Beedo are given 10,000 credits with which to purchase the information.
Posing as agents for Borva the Hutt, Weer and Beedo board their Y-Wing Fighter (its Alliance markings removed) and head for the Vales system, located in the mid-rim near Tanaab. Their cover story, should they require one, is that they are working for the Hutt, seeking land to purchase in order for Borva to build a resort for himself and his people, separate from the normal Carcasso resorts. Beedo and Weer arrive in the Vales system without incident, and land on forested Bree Island on Carcasso.
It doesn't take long for Weer and Beedo to find the Wild Tangent Tapcafe, site of their meeting with Borissz Vialles. Asking around the cafe, they learn that the Duro has likely been here already, so they wait for the information broker to arrive. While they are waiting and asking around, Weer meets a group of Wookiee traders here on Carcasso to collect some rare sap thats apparently quite valuable on their home world of Kashyyyk.
Vialles eventually comes in and sits down. He begins by telling the Rebel agents that he has overheard some very interesting information in the cantina in Mos Eisley, Tatooine, and that it concerns a possible rescue of Princess Leia. Then, the Duro announces that he now needs 20,000 credits for the information.
Balking at any talk of waiting, Vialles explains that he has another buyer who can pay the 20,000 credits now, and he stands to walk out of the cafe. Just then, five Imperial guards and an officer enter the cafe and start firing blasters toward our heroes!
Weer and Beedo easily dispatch the Imperials and make an escape just as security droids swarm the cafe. They sneak through the streets of the Bree Island resort, thinking of some way to track down the double-crossing Vialles, and possibly a way to escape the planet. When they arrive at the starport, Beedo and Weer find that the resort is in the midst of an Imperial lockdown, and spot a trio of Imperial shuttles rocketing away.
After some investigation, the Rebel agents realize that finding Vialles will prove far more difficult (maybe even impossible if he left aboard one of the shuttles), so they focus on getting off-planet and returning to Alderaan for further instructions. The main obstacle is that Stormtroopers are now guarding the interior of the starport, even watching individual ships (including the Y-Wing of course).
A desperate plan is concocted. They first attempt to steal Vialles' ship, but find that effort fruitless. Speaking with the Wookiees from the Wild Tangent, Weer and Beedo agree to help them escape, in essence, getting the Imperials' attention allowing the Wookiees to get away. The Rebels charge their ship, overtaking the Imperials guarding the Y-Wing. As Beedo fires up the ship, Stormtroopers nearby start setting up an E-Web Cannon, which of course gets the heroes' attention. A few cannon shots rattle the Y-Wing, but it escapes into orbit, with the Wookiees' freighter trailing behind.
The Wookiees and our heroes part ways in space above Carcasso, and the Wookiees promise to aid Beedo and Weer if ever needed in the future.
Meanwhile, Devan Brightway and his wife Andina arrive in separate ships at the Kor Vella starport on Corellia. Brightway is in Kor Vella to meet on behalf of the Alliance with Jordd Chinns, a representative of CorSec. While he takes care of this assignment, Andina wanders around Kor Vella, and as she does, a pair of shadowy figures stalk her. As she returns to the starport to feed her pet graul, Andina is about to be nabbed...
