He needs someone who knows where all sorts of rare artifacts end up. He needs that Toydarian son-of-a-Sith Nakko to come through for him.The holonet link sparks to life and the image of a scantily-clad Zeltron appears and Tam hears “Shoo, shoo” in the background as a groggy, partially hung over Nakko bumps her out of the way and takes over the holodisplay.“It’s like the middle of the night here, kid. What’s so important that you have to pull Nakko away from his company?” Tam can hear the giggles in the background and can tell Nakko’s attention is elsewhere.Tam leans in close to the receiver, filling Nakko’s display with a giant image of his face, “Nakko! You owe me one. Chateau ’77. You know of the stuff?”Nakko’s attention turns back to the holodisplay, “Yeah, I guess I do. Chateau ’77, huh? Yeah, I’ve moved the stuff. But you ain’t goin’ like the story I gotta tell. Some years ago some hoods managed to knock off an auction house—an operation what beyond their capabilities, but somehow they managed to pull it off. When I went to examine the ware, here they were each with a bottle in hand getting drunk. Stupid fools didn’t even realize they were drinking down twenty grand each. So, I did what any good buyer would do. I bought up all the junk they had including the case of wine for eight grand.“Most of the stuff went into people’s private collections. But the wine and a few pieces of Caamasi art went to this really nasty cuss named Faynor. Faynor is a collector of treasures. He likes to lock them away so only he can enjoy them. He doesn’t enjoy the beauty of a piece of art, wouldn’t even sample a taste of the wine. He just wanted it so he could lock it away.“Now that doesn’t make Faynor a bad guy, per se. What makes Faynor a jerk is that’s he’s the meanest slaver in the outer rim. He has a reputation for brutality and his slaving raids usually just leave scorched settlements. I wouldn’t suggest going after the guy, but if you do, do me a favor: don’t let him seek revenge, if you get my drift.”Tam downs another drink. “One more thing, Nakko—since you owe me—Modok. Bounty hunter. Attacked me. Ring any bells?”“Can’t say it does, kid. Let me do some digging.”</blockquote>
