Zaedharrg doesn’t know either Vyrkris or Kulsaegh, and while Kulsaegh is pretty busy with her duties, Vyrkris is quite pretty, and more than willing to talk. She seems to hang out with an Aslan female or a Luriani male quite a bit of the time. Any significant conversation with her, at least at first, is likely going to have to include one of them.  *******************Saanath’s conversations with Eduardo continue. “Look, to you they might have been ‘independent reps’ – but I guarantee they were looking over their shoulders. If you owe money – ‘venture capital’ they’ll call it when we get to the Council – to a ‘corp, and half your job is trying to cut the strings they keep trying to hang on you. You might need to take their money to get started, but if you do, pay it off before you do anything else. You haven’t made your first credit unless they’ve been paid back their last. You remember that.” Eduardo continues to clam upm however, when Tomas is in the room – Saanath senses it’s more out of embarrassment than anything else, despite his statement, “I got nothing to apologize for. There’s a problem, it’s his, not mine.”******************* That evening, Bilem returns with news that Tomas can have a tour of Engineering the next morning, along with a few other passengers who asked for the same thing. He also finds Zaeddharrg pretty easily and strikes up a conversation.************** Ktarlewaweikye is introduced to Vyrkris’s friend Felin, and he invites them to dinner on the upper deck. He’s a nice young luriani man, though not nearly as talkative as his friend. During dinner, both Vyrkris and Felin wave to a Luriani woman walking past their table and into Captain’s dining room. “That’s Trelene Scrautigue, one of Makhidkarun’s former VPs. She’s really nice. We had a drink with her at the Red Tide before embarking.” She continues on for a bit, explaining about some of Trelene’s accomplishments. For her part, Ktarlewaweikye notices one of the humans from the Vargr bar, back on Daramm go in the Capatin’s room soon after Trelene. **************  Quinn and Trelene are invited to dinner with the captain on that first night, along with six other passengers. One is a very old Luriani who Trelene recognizes. Except for Walid and Trelene, none of the other guests is Luriani. The captain thanks everyone for coming and then asks everyone to introduce themselves. The human to the left of the captain speaks up first, saying “I am Salvor Ishugi. I work as a manager for Pharmacorp, and I’m headed to the council to do some recruitment.” A vargr is next: “Frgegd Gvesh” then a Solomani human: “My name is Jill Zalieckas. I serve as legal counsel to HCN.” Next is Quinn, followed by a mixed-race human: “I’m just looking for a fresh start. Anselm Kiefer, at your service." Trelene is next, followed by an Ursa, who growls out: “I seek employment with Gatway Arms. My name is Andrei Gulchev. This is my compatriot, Marietta Jordana,” nodding to the human woman at his left. Finally, the old and somewhat bent Luriani speaks up quietly. “I am Walid Nells-Corzin, Senior Vice President of Operations at HiranuCorp.” Everyone (ooc: at least all the NPCs, that is) are in rather formal attire, and it's clear that everyone here has been around the block a bit. (OOC: continued after your posts/introductions)</blockquote>
