USH'S GAME EPISODE IV- 'CHASE'- LIGHT SIDE AREA

WB, Gundy.

Yes, you may land in the bay they pointed out to you. As your ship swoops down you get your first glance of Nar Shadda- much like Coruscant (though only a moon), save the buildings are deep, not high. And there is less traffic, but instead an insane nightmare of criss-crossing public walkways.

Your ships settles down in a dirty-looking landing bay.

-

Seems things on Tartarus have ground to a halt. Need any help? Anything summarised or pointed out?

(maybe we should just get in there, tell the prat we're here to kill baddies and that he'd better let us in)

"Well, things weren't exactly pleasant between us anyway. She's a Hutt after all!" Xeth states as he puts the ship down. "Besides, we're not REALLY going to go see her. Just using it as an excuse for landing."

As you get out of your ships, Xeth and Gundy, a landing official approcahes you.

"Welcome to Nar Shadda!" he says. "I am the administrator of this landing section." He looks your ship up and down.

"Nice ship," he says.

"Uh...thanks," says Xeth. "It's a Geonasian starfighter. Modified to fit my needs of course!"

"What is the cargo?" he asks.

"Spare ship parts," Kellan told him, hoping she appeared to the administrator as the typical-looking trader she had dressed as. She avoided glancing sideways at Xeth and spoke casually. "Typical trader goods."

The administrator gives a 'gas-man' style intake of breath.

"ALWAYS in demand, spare parts," he says. "You must do good business. And with a nice ship like that, you must be doing pretty well for yourselves."

"Look Captain the bottom line is, that we are here for a very special reason, we have tracked down a man named persis here. He attacked several of us and after that he fled to this planet with an artefact it is imperatif to the safety of the republic that we get back that artefact. Now you can either help us or not the choice is yours!"

The Captain listens, though is a little confused.

"I DO want to help you," he says "I will help you any way I can... but there's just simply no way I an let you in! Not without Senatorial authority.

"But... safety of the Republic? How so? And who is this Persis?"

"Persis is a very dangerous criminal he should stand trial or die for the crimes he has commited towards the jedi order and the republic. the Artefact he carries will grant him and his comrads great power. But even worse would be, and I fear he will do this, to sell it to someone even more evil than himself."

"I don't know what to tell you," says the Captain, "except that no criminal on the run would simply be let into the civilian area either."

"Trust me Persis is here"

"How do you know that? What makes you think I would just allow any old criminal into the civilian area?"

Sieri thinks, " I suppose I ought to land somewhere." She glances at her sensors.
"That ought to do. Arch, I'm going to start the landing cycle...stand by" she says to her astromech R3-H4. ( she doesn't really need the astromech, but it came with the ship and makes a fairly good companion on long boring solo trips....also it helps her if she need to access library data...etc)

"I am quit confident that Persis didn't pass through here to get into the cilivian sector"

What kind of place are you planning on landing at, Sarah?

-

"But..." says Pheron. "He is not HERE. If you do not think he is going there, then he cannot be on Tartarus at all."

"Yes, not too bad a business to be in," Kellan replied. "Now if you'll just excuse us....."

"I guess you must have been very careful, in a business like that.." says the man.

Xeth, this is the bit you hate... here is how it works. You bribe this guy not to go rifling through your ship whilst you are here. The amount you bribe him is important, because if anyone bribes HIM more he will let them break into your ship without comment.

"Persis knows his ways around the system, he's sneaky and can get the results he wants. He is on Tartarus."
