I think Xeth would take offence at calling Geonosis a world of no value...
Right! It's time to go. Your ships have departed from the hangar bay of the Jedi temple, have obtained flight clearance, and have zoomed into hyperspace...
Poenae is a desert world (as in full of hot sun and sand, before people start asking if I mean it is all tundra). It is inhabitable but not colonised in any serious manner. Not unusual for the Union to conduct technology tests on environmentally awkward worlds- their stuff has to work Galaxy wide, after all. Mind you, as far as any of you know, it is a long time since they had a mass demonstration like this, using an entire planet for the work, and with a huge proportion of their top leadership present. Must be something pretty big.
It's out in the Mid-Rim, which is a little further out than you might have expected... maybe they are trying to impress the outer worlds? Of course, the entirity of the Outer Regions comes under Ryamore's remit... well, you will be there soon.
Densk is a Renegade; he knows the score. I'll see if some of the part timers can be around enough for full play; I must say, when it comes to Part II of this story, it really will only be for those who can keep up a regular commitment.

Poenae
Your ships wink out of hyperspace around the desert world. Many ships already throng the woorld- various odd ships of experimental construction that you have not seen before, and plenty of more familiar ones too- including Trade Federation battleships; they must be in attendance.
An amiable traffic controller contacts you soon afterwards, welcoming you to the system, and giving you co-ordinates for a landing.
