"Then you would, it times of distress, help his family after his death?"
(She spat that at him.)

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> ...his family?...his death!?...<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->


*Vinda's eyes focused onto hers, as he listened...
His instinct had been right...
..Vinda slowly lit the Cigarra he was holding as he considered the ramifications...
He sighed loudly as he exhaled, the Cigarra smoke seemed to obscure him for a moment...*

"...If I could be of any help.... then ...yes..."

[You can be of help, corporate man. You will deliver me to the frozen world, and I will make one the last and only.]
(The beast replied, scraping at his bony head with a long talon.)

"What my collegue means to say is that we would ask for passage to a world in the Hoth system. Upon arrival, we would land a small ship on the surface, and your debt to Ahnk would be repayed, and I would owe one to you."
(She looked at Par Khai as he let out a grunt, and back to Vinda.)
"Would this be agreeable?"

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> ...Debt!?!...<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->


*Vinda chewed on his Cigarra as he listened to Montague's words...Clearly there was more to this story, but the request however seemed reasonable enough...
Vinda spoke through gritted teeth as they clenched his Cigarra...*

"...<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> sounds<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->.. agreeable..."

*Removing the Cigarra from his mouth, he glanced across to Par Khai, then back to Montague...*

"...is that all?..."

"Set a course for Hoth 4."
(She glanced around.)
"I will be leaving now."

*..Taking the cigarra from his mouth, Vinda nodded, and used his personal comm-link to contact the Bridge...*

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Sir?<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

"..Omar, take us to Hoth-4 , now..."

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> ..I see, very good sir...<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

*..admiring the quality of the cigarra, Vinda absently observed it, whilst he talked to Montague....*

"..If I remember correctly, Hoth-4 is run by The Rogue Empire, is it not?..."

*Vinda glanced back up to Montague, his eyes narrowing slightly...*

"..aren't they going to want to have a say in this...?..."

"Did you shed a tear for the Corporate Sector Authority when you took Bonadon?"
(She shook her head.)
"I don't have time to @#%$ around... if you're timid, we;'ll both leave. Or if you think that the wife of your dead friend is important, I'll continue on my way and you can take Par Khai to Hoth. It's as simple as that."

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> ...charming...<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->


*..Vinda's eyes didn't move from hers as he exhaled from another drag..the smoke swirled around his face as he glanced to the Massassi creature, then back to Montague...a small wry smile forming....*

"...point taken..."

(She got into her shuttle, aimed for Dantooine, and left the beast behind.)
