Buying and selling with the Enemy (Closed)

[Kentos Fey’lya / Adamis]

"The Force is with every living thing, weather they know it or not or think it or not. Life cannot exist without the force, so you are not new to it. You are just new to knowing of its ways and effects on life. Now what are the three types of these ships shown here? How are they different?"

[Triune]

"The Light Transport is a freighter. It can carry 110 meteric tons and has ten passenger staterooms. It can be crewed by as little as 2 but the optimum number is 5 which allows for a steward to tend to the passengers and two gunners for the side mounts. The Strato-fighter is a space-capable fighter that is optimized for atmospheric flight. One of the drawbacks most star-fighters have is they perform poorly in planetary atmosphere. It takes a crew of two and can be fitted to drop ship-to-surface bombs. The Heavy star-fighter configuration serves as both a fighter and a hyperspace capable courier. It has been fitted to be run by a single pilot but can be configured to be a fleet bomber with a crew of three." She turns to look at Adamis "As we understand things there are many different groups that use the Force. The Jedi, the Sith, Our Dathomiri sisters the Force Witches, and others... So this force is broken up between them then?"

[Kentos Fey’lya / Adamis]

"The force is not broken in any way. Some people think there is a light and a dark side but in truth it is just the intentions of the person using the force, that makes such groupings. The force flows through everything and everyone, it is just that some people can train themselves to hear it, manipulate it and convince it to do what they want."
*Adamis waves a hand and force pulls the Light transport design towards them and makes it stop just in front of them with the cockpit facing forward.*
"Is there anyway that these can be altered to be able to take more men? Say an assault force?"

[Triune]

*She doesn't seem overly shocked by his moving of the display.*

"Yes the Transport modle can be modified by canibalizing the cargo space down to only 10 tons. That will allow a total of 60 passengers to be transported without taxing the life support systems however if the ship is going from a larger vessel to the surface you could easily pack upwards of 200 in the hold and repulsor drop them from the rear belly hatch." Once more she turns to look at him with her single brilliant eye. "What do you think about the Force, Master Jedi? Do you feel there is a Light and Dark side?"

[Kentos Fey’lya / Adamis]

"No I do not believe that there is a light and a dark side of the force. However there are light and dark uses and followers of the force, such as the Jedi and the Sith or force statsis or force lightening. The Sith seek to control the force, but what they don't realise is that no-one can control the force, it does not simply listen to our commands and obeys, it only does so if it is willing or is properly manitpulated."
*Adamis moves the ship back to its original position and puts it down.*
"Now if you don't mind I would like to have a tour of each of these ships. I want to see what they look like on the inside."

[Triune]

"Of course, right this way." She leads him through a large connecting door into another show bay. Here there are full-sized replicas of the ships and into the Vorcia she leads him.

*The ship is a linear layout with a single primary deck and a lower deck that runs only half the length of the ship. The ship is soundly crafted with bulkheads every 15 feet in the corridors with bracing every five feet. The bridge is set up for efficient use with very little space wasted. Crew quarters are utilitarian and the docking bay is large enough to house two medium freighters while the cargo bay can hold upwards of 500 metric tons. The cradles for mounting fighters under the concave wings are easily acceable from above with drop hatches to enter the fighters. All in all an efficent and able design. The Dursi's while smaller are also of the same quality and efficent use of space. The Danthiri believe in solid construction and defenses.*

"So you believe it is the actions of the user and not the tool that makes one Light or Dark... So should a dark-user be punished because he uses the force to break the laws or just because he is a Dark user?"

[Kentos Fey’lya / Adamis]

"A dark-sider should be punished for his or her actions. If they use the force to kill or cause pain and suffering when they don't need to then they are worse than animals! One should only do such things if the person or persons in question pose a current threat to themselves or others. That is the way of the Jedi, to protect. Now what lighspeed can these vessals reach?"

[Triune]

"Both the Vorcia and the Dursi have a hyperspace multiplier of one, true not nearly equal to some but both are suitable for modifiication at a later date should you find hyperdrives more suitable. Our Verpine engineers are working on a more powerful hyperdrive but that is months from having a functional prototype. I find your world views surprising, Master Jedi, after a Jedi named Enishi attached our world of Myrkr with the intent to land and kill its citizenry the Matron had begun to think the Jedi council had commissioned the attack considering the number of ships involved in the invasion. But if as you said anyone that uses any weapon be it the force or a blaster to intentionally inflict death upon those people that were not attacking them in any way is no better then an Animal I can presume that this attack was the act of a Rogue Jedi and someone the Jedi council will deal with properly. As you say the role of a Jedi is to protect afterall." She runs her fingers over a datapad for a moment "You mentioned wanting to purchase five of the Vorcia, we are able to accomidate you at this time. How many Dursi would you be interested in?"

[Kentos Fey’lya / Adamis]

"If only the galaxy was as cut and dry as that, but there are gray areas in even the most simplest views. I do not have all or many of the facts of the attack you describe but the Jedi in question may think of it as a pre-emptive strike against you. I prefer to update and upgrade defences in such cases and then destroy the or neutralise the threat, but that is just me. I suppose you could say that is what I am doing right now but I don't really want to get into at this time. But the answer to your question would be 8 Dursi, all in the Light Transport configuration, with the cargo capacity cut down so that 60 men can be transported. Is it possible to upgrade their weapons in anyway? I want them to be well protected. You can never be too careful in times such as these."

[Triune]

"The Matron does not take well to having what she sees as her sanctum world attacked in such a manner especially by a faction that she has tried to avoid harming. There will be reprecussions. Eight Dursi, assault transport configuration 60 person load. Yes this is possible. The standard weapons, two wing laser cannons, two firelinked blaster cannons and a single missile tube is often enough but for a more agressive approach to armament is possible. The wing cannons can be replaced by a dual laser cannon turrets and an additional pair of turrets can be mounted top and bottom of the main body. This will however cut the cargo space down to 5 tons."

[Kentos Fey’lya / Adamis]

"That sounds like a threat. Since I don't know if it is directed towards the one Jedi responsible for the attack or the Jedi in general, I will let it slide for now. But on to other things. I would like 2 of the Dursi with the upgraded armourment that you described. I believe that will probably be all unless you have something else to show me?"

[Triune]

"Were it a threat and against the Jedi in general you, Master Jedi, would have never gotten this far. The artifical gravity on the landing pad would have been increased to twenty times standard the minute you were out of reach of your ship at which time the plates would have been electified to pass over one thousand amps through your body, sufficient enough to kill a dozen bull rancors. Your body would have then been taken to the labs where it would have been stripped down into component parts, a bio-phaegic replicant made and sent back in your place with enough engineered terminus virus sacks in the body to kill every man woman and child on Coruscant in less then a day. After two days the virus would burn out and leave no trace. We have the power to do this but we do not. Just like every trained force-user has the power to break the neck or destroy the mind of another yet choses not to. As you said earlier, it is not the tool but the hand that uses it that defines whether they are light or dark. Two Dursi with the Warguard armament system which will cost 5000 credits more and six with standard weapons package. Along with 5 Vorcia class light cruisers that comes to 4,650,000 credits."

[Kentos Fey’lya / Adamis]

"Never underestimate your opponent, or you will be burned beyond identification. Many people have found this when dealing with Jedi or Sith. Now as to the Vorcia, I would like two to have the front-facing missile system instead of the ion cannons. Versitilaty is the best plan of action in my book. Now that our transaction is complete where do I wait for my purchase and do I get the chance to Meet Lirreka herself or is she away for the time-being?"

[Triune]

*A smile crosses her lips at his words as she continues tapping on the datapad.*

"I have learned that lesson well Master Jedi. One does not lose an eye without learning to see better." She examines the information on the pad. "The ships will be ready in a day. You're welcome to wait here, our guest suites are always avaliable for perspective customers especially those spending over four-and-a-half million credits. How would you like to handle the financial aspect of this transaction?."

[Kentos Fey’lya / Adamis]

*Adamis pulls a datapad from under his robe and hands it to Thorn.*
"You should all you need on that datapad, account details and all. And the amount that I am spending is of little value in the grand scheme of things. The only value that money has to Jedi is to trade with people who value it so much. I will use one of your guest quarters, and do I have free rein of this compound or am I restricted?"
