*After several hours in hyperspace and several stops in nameless systems to throw off anyone who might be following them, the Jedi fleet appears in the Myrkr system. This system is held by the Ebonclaws, the fleet is here to see if they can get any help from the powerful group.* ===Comlink=== "Ebonclaw forces, this is Jedi Admiral Master Adamis of the Jedi fleet. We come here in peace and would like to have an audience with your leader to talk about a possible alliance and/or trade of goods and services. If you do not want this meeting to come to pass we will leave in peace and not return unless you ask it off us. We await your reply. Adamis out." ===Comlink===

"45 bottles of ale on the wall, 45bottles of ale... take one down, spin it around 44 bottles of ale on the wall.... 44 bottles of ale on the wall, 44 bottles of ale... take one down, spin it around 43 bottles of ale on the wall..."
Whatever the Jedi was doing, he was taking his time about it... Shara had lost track of time... and was getting extremely bored. She lay staring up at her cell's one dim light, trying to think up ways to pass the time. At first she'd tried meditation, and had moderate success. It was calming, good for her nerves after the stress of the battle. But the fickle Lordess had not the patience to keep it up for long.
"Stupid...Jedi...bah...."

*All of a sudden a space opened in the left wall of the cell (from the door) and out slid a tray with what looked a meal. It was made up by a plastic cup with water, a plastic spoon and a plastic plate with some form of grey slop on it and it was all served on a small plastic tray.*

Shara jumped at the sudden sound, whirling around.... and spotted the tray.
"Hmm."
She approached it slowly, eyeing the plate's contents scepticly.
"Yuck." She scowled, giving the slop an experimental poke with the spoon. "Phah.... so kind of him..." she took the water after a moments hesitation and abandoned the tray.

*The Defensive grid of the Myrkr system has received some attention since it was last tested by the ill-fated droid fleet of Enishi, no longer are there mere interdiction satelites protecting the system but in their place are fully functional interlocking shield generators providing a solid shield that can encompass the entire system. True it would take considerable energy to maintain but the Ebonclaws have never lacked for either energy or audacity.*
****** COMM LINK ****** "Ah Master Adamis, the Matron is expecting you. Your flagship may proceed to the planet, your fleet however must remain in the outer system under the watchful eye of the Home Guard. I'm certain you understand."
****** COMM LINK ******
*The interdiction field in this area (Which is still a function of the massive satelite system) drops allowing the fleet to pass only to reform after the last ship passes through. The Satelites (Each easily the size of a capital ship) of course have the fleet targeted and ready to fire should any wrong move be made. The 'Home Guard' are a quartet of sleek heavy cruisers of unfamiliar design (nothing new for the Ebonclaws) that act as watchers of the Jedi Fleet while two light cruisers act as escort for Adamis' flagship*

*The 5 Vorcia Class Light Cruisers stop as ordered and stay where they are, having been ordered by Adamis to do as the Ebonclaws said for now, but to remain ready for anything, just in case. Meanwhile the Jedi's Light continued on with its escort.* "I don't like this Sir. Spliting the fleet up like this is risky." "Well we don't really have much choice now do we Mr Marcus, and another thing I don't want you flying off the handle like you did last time you came across the Ebonclaws. They are a potential ally to us now and we can not have such a powerful slip through our fingers because of an outburst by you." "Yes Sir. But I still don't like this." "Just reopen the channel please." ===Comlink=== "Thank you for being so understanding. Now where would you like to meet. If you are willing we could meet here on the Jedi's Light or at a location of your choicing. Either is acceptable to us." ===Comlink===

The water drunk and the goop not looking more inviting Shara returned to her meditative slump, pacing up and down the cell's length.
"Bah. What is he planning?" She wondered out loud, scowling. "I get the feeling I'm missing something..."

"You may land your personal launch on the plateau landing pad, your ship of course in orbit over the planet. The Matron will receive you in her private Compound. Coordinates are being transmitted."
****** COMM LINK ******
*The trip in system is one of enlightenment and perhaps forboding. The Ebonclaws have indeed been busy in the system, the gas giants have several refining platforms over them with the inner most gas giant having a new ring system that turns out to be an orbital shipyard of organic construction. Past the asteroid belt another area of vast construction floats between the orbit of Myrkr and the Asteroid belt. Currently it consists of a large though not immense station and a partially constructed hexagonal 'gate' like structure many times larger then the largest of capital ships. Sensors indicate the station has power readings off the scale.*

===Comlink=== "Very well. I look forward to meeting the Matron. Adamis out." ===Comlink=== "Get a shuttle ready with a full squad of Commandos. While I am gone begin an indepth scan of the system and document everything. I want a draft report ready for when I get back. Oh and check that our new' guest is behaving herself every now and then." "Yes Sir, and please do try to come back with a full squad of commandos this time. We don't have unlimited numbers of them you know." "I know Marcus, I know." *Adamis left the bridge and made his way to the shuttle bay. Many things were flying through his mind as he walked down the halls of his ship. When he got the shuttle bay and boarded the shuttle took of and started towards the surface and the coordinates that were given to them. This only gave Adamis time to think and begin to doubt his decision, but there was nothing he could do now. He had put himself on this course and now he had to see it through.*

The 'guest' was behaving herself... though this was mostly because there was no way for her to not behave. She paced round and round, prowling like a caged animal.
"Damn him... damn him....damn him...."

*The plateau platform was on a natural bluff that overlooked the pristine forest valley in which Lirreka built her compound. Aside from the intrusion of this and another larger landing platform the area looked like it must have centuries before anyone ever set foot on this world. At the pad waiting for Adamis to disembark is a lone Danthiri female wearing a tunic and loose fitting pants as is the wont of most Danthiri. The nearest 'town' (The ONLY town on the planet actually) was a thousand miles away and there is no sign of any compound near by.*

"Damn him... damn him....damn him...." *After being left for several minutes the tray with the 'food' on slid back into te wall and the hole closed. Then above the slot where the food had just gone into a small computer screen appeared with some writing on it and buttons to one side.* "What did you think of the meal you have just recieved? Please rate from the options below. - Excellent - Great - Good - It will do Thank you for completing the survey. "

When the loading ramp was down, Adamis was the first off but when the commandos began to file out, he signaled for them to stay with the shuttle. They seemed nervous about this but did as ordered. Adamis walked up to the Danthiri and bowed to her.* "Jedi Master Adamis at your service, mi'lady."

She stared at it a moment, then shook her head. "What the...? You've got to be kidding me....." she snorted. "Where's the 'It royally stinks' option?" She gave the screen an experimental tap then backed away. "Weird."

We are glad that you have enjoyed your meal. This will now be your normal meal for the remainder of your stay. Have a nice day and again thank you! "
