  1. [19:40] <IterationDrive> Planets; after awhile, they all start to blend together. Yntonia's like any of a hundred other in the mid rim; agricultural, sparse population. Only important thing comes from the near location to the front lines of the three-way Galatic Cold War. There's only one spaceport on the planet.
  2. [19:43] <IterationDrive> "So," Altansarnai asks from the copilot's seat, the brown-haired woman peering out of the viewport towards the planet as it circles below them. "Supposed to be a decent amount of work down there, from what I heard. Know it doesn't look it..."
  3. [19:44] <IterationDrive> She reaches up to scratch her facial scar lightly. "But apparently a lot of deserters have been going to ground here, so."
  4. 01[19:45] <Khulan> "I hope so. Last few planets were a bit of a bust, most of our creds just went into getting this thing enough fuel to get here. Did you finish the maintenance on the shuttle like I asked?"
  5. [19:46] <IterationDrive> "I did, love," she says, leaning over to kiss Khulan on the cheek with a smirk. "None of the bounties on this planet are particularly worth it, but since there's no big targets, I figure there won't be much competition. VOlume'll win the day for us."
  6. 06[19:48] * Khulan leans her head on the other woman's shoulders. "Guess I'll get the armor tuned up then. Split up like usual?"
  7. [19:49] <IterationDrive> Altan nods, smiling and kissing Khulan's hair lightly. "Yeah. Lots of ground to cover."
  8. 01[19:51] <Khulan> "Alright. Oh, and remember. I know you get excited about adopting, but it's gonna have to be a decision we make together. We're barely keeping ourselves fed and our gear maintained right now."
  9. 01[19:52] <Khulan> "So adoption prospects are gonna be tied heavily to you not getting shot up so much on this planet." She ruffles the other woman's hair playfully.
  10. [19:52] <IterationDrive> She chuckles. "I promise I'lld o my best not to. But honestly, it's a bunch of deserters and cowards we're hunting, they aren't gonna cause that much trouble."
  11. 01[19:53] <Khulan> "You said on the last planet that it was just low level mobsters and it wouldn't be a problem and I had to strafe hardened positions twice in the ship."
  12. [19:54] <IterationDrive> "It wasn't twice!" She pouts a bit. "It was one and a half at most, that second position went down to my undermining before you finished."
  13. 06[19:55] * Khulan ruffles some more. "That isn't the point, babe. The point is that you're great at standing tall and proud, less so at situational awareness."
  14. 06[19:55] * Khulan kisses her on the forehead. "I'm gonna get my suit and sword loaded into the shuttle. Give me a comm when we're closer to the ground, okay?"
  15. [19:56] <IterationDrive> "Will do, love." She kisses Khulan's cheek. "Want me to set down in the actual spaceport, or away a bit to save on docking costs?"
  16. 01[19:57] <Khulan> "Save the costs, we don't need the spaceport treatment anyway."
  17. 06[19:59] * Khulan heads to the bay. The Wayfarer-class transport's cargo attachment has been converted to a mini-hangar of sorts, holding the ship and gear maintenance as well as the shuttle. She starts moving bags of heavy armor into the cargo hold of the shuttle, and puts her vibrosword into the cockpit.
  18. [19:59] <IterationDrive> She nods. "Alright then. Let me find a nice, out of the way plain. Shouldn't be a problem--agri worlds, nothing but open space.
  19. [19:59] <IterationDrive> "
  20. [20:00] <IterationDrive> The inertial dampeners kick in as the ship gets moving; Khulan can recognize the feeling of slow re-entry. After about five minutes of descent, the ship's comms come on. "Alright, love, we're mid-atmosphere."
  21. 06[20:01] * Khulan ducks back into the cockpit. "C'mere." She puts her hand on the woman's chin and kisses her deeply.
  22. [20:03] <IterationDrive> She laughs and kisses back, closing her eyes lightly as she leans into her wife.
  23. 06[20:03] * Khulan holds for a few moments before breaking off. "I'll check back in when I find a place to land. Hunt well, my heart."
  24. [20:08] <IterationDrive> "Hunt well, my soul," she echoes.
  25. 06[20:08] * Khulan smiles, heading back to the shuttle and prepping it for launch.
  26. [20:13] <IterationDrive> It's easy enough to get out, over the green fields of the planet...
  27. [20:13] <IterationDrive> Man, it evne looks more boring from this close--farms and small villages. still, boring places are often where people go to hide... and if they're hiding, they're worth something to someone.
  28. 06[20:15] * Khulan frowns. Is there really enough bounties on this world to justify the trip? Maybe she needs to start doublechecking Altan's sources...
  29. 06[20:19] * Khulan scans for something even approaching a decent-sized town as she flies by...
  30. [20:25] <IterationDrive> There's one not too far; a little out there, but not terribly so. Just south ofa big, abandoned-looking mining complex, too... and as she flies, the shuttle's comms beep.

  33. [20:27] <IterationDrive> There's one not too far; a little out there, but not terribly so. Just south ofa big, abandoned-looking mining complex, too... and as she flies, the shuttle's comms beep.
  34. 06[20:29] * Khulan hits the button, not sure who it's from.
  35. [20:42] <IterationDrive> It's from a local number, definitely. A grey-haired older human male is on the line. "This thing on? Hello; is this Khulan Bataar? This is Marshall Reiner, Marshall of these here parts. You're a bounty hunter, right?"
  36. 06[20:45] * Khulan nods. "That's right, Marshal."
  37. [20:47] <IterationDrive> "How do you feel about making a little extra money while you're on planet? My boys can't just all be recalled, and I have some worries that one of my towns is gonna get a little messy in the next bit. I'd appreciate a good blaster or sword arm to help my Sheriff out."

  40. 01[20:49] <Khulan> "You called the right Mandalorian then. What are the coordinates?"
  41. [20:49] <IterationDrive> He sends some along. Quite nearby, fortunately enough. "I think my boy's headed out to check the abandoned mines north of town. But I'll let him know he'll have company."
  42. 02[20:50] * IterationDrive ([email protected]) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
  43. 03[20:50] * IterationDrive ([email protected]) has joined #THeeldersagaic
  44. 01[20:50] <Khulan> "I will land there shortly. My rates are being sent to you now." She sends over a file.
  45. [20:51] <IterationDrive> He opens it up. "Alright. I'll let Business office know."
  46. 06[21:01] * Khulan sets a course for the coordinates, looking for them through the cockpit glass.
  47. [21:05] <IterationDrive> It's the nearby village, in fact. Quite a coincidence indeed...
  48. 06[21:10] * Khulan shrugs. That was easy. She finds a good empty spot to set down.
  49. 02[21:11] * IterationDrive ([email protected]) Quit (Connection reset by peer)

  53. [21:12] <IterationDrive> Easy enough to do; she doesn't even trample a farmer's crops! Now, to just find the sheriff...
  54. 06[21:13] * Khulan hops out, lugging a duffel bag full of armor sections over one shoulder and hooking her sword onto the bag. She starts the hike into town.
