(Nah, I'm pretty sure he came up with that all by himself...)
Galder sighs and shuts off the communicator.
"Well, time to go deliver the good news, hmm?" Galder asks the aparition of Kuylen, then leaves the ship.
As he heads to go report to Rand, he plans a route of escape should it come to dashing to the ships.
"I wonder..." Galder ponders, looking around. "Perhaps Rand and I should hold bottom...hmm..."
I do hate to delay this game any more than need be- but you really will need Dexx's say so to produce the tablet. I'll give him another day.
Ok, plan is to sneak up Rianna when you head to the library- fair plan, but make sure you have an idea how you will do it! If Rianna goes up with you but isn't there when you reach the library that will look obvious. So instead, plan how Tanic and Rah can help Rianna get up once they are up themselves.
Rand, yes, you need an organic crystallographer. You'd be surprised if there wasn't a contact around here who could provide that service but it sure as hell won't be cheap and you don't have the money.

"What's on it? Well... no-one really knows. I mean, no-one really understands the old Sith alphabet any more, and it is almost impossible to read it unless touched by someone with a midi-chlorian count. There have been some notes about it over time, but all they can really conclude is that it is unusually long and complex."
"Siva sure as hell knew what it was, though," says another. "He stole it specifically, not at random."
"Heh, yeah," says the first. "Sadly, precious few of Siva's notes still exist, so we don't know why he chose that one. Impressive man, Siva. No-one else could have done what he did."

Well, Galder, you certainly think that during the heist, someone should be down here to make sure the ship remains clear. If anything goes wrong, the ship will be the first thing they attack, and the most vulnerable part of your operation also. Quietly removing the explosives will also be tricky... to your mind, you will have to quickly kill all of Jena's people down here as well.
Quietly removing the explosives...
Gallador or Takuan could use Illusion, but there would be several people watching. Then, nobody would see Galder working on them...perhaps it would appear he was working on something else.
Another use for Gallador; I desire for him to come with me to 'convince' the contact and the crystallographer to do what I want. 😉
You'll need something. Mind tricking someone like that into doing it for nothing would be ridiculous. That said, if anyone can do that, Takuan can. But preferable for you to mind trick him into an alternative.
Or get the money!
You have a bad feeling about trying to remove those explosives whilst Jena is around.
