He needed another shot. Another shot. another shot. All he needed was one more shot, then he could forget. Just another shot, another shot, another shot.

The junkie staggered around a bit, trying to walk toward the joint house. Just one more shot, just one more shot. He fell, and dragged himself up, then fell again. His vision was fogged, his brain muddled. He couldn't think straight, just one more shot, just one more shot. He finaly managed to drag himself to the door of the joint house, and began to find the handle. How could he choose? There were at least twenty to choose from, and they all looked the same. He waved his hand at them, trying to find the handle. There, turn, push, no pull, wait, push the door. In he fell. Just one more shot, just one more shot. He stood, and staggared foward, his mind slowly shutting down, so far gone infact that he didn't notice the large man grab him.

Snow, cold, mud, water, cold. He looked up, to see the door close, and then everything went black.

<!--EZCODE BOLD START--> Daily, hourly, even by the minute, yes the minute, Gentlebeings around the galaxy use spice for various reasons. In the field of healing, it is used to put those in great pain into a dream like state, allowing doctors to do minor surgery without putting them to sleep. The spice along with the fast healing properties of Bacta allow patients to have minor knee, arm, even heart surgery and be home watching monday night lazerball that night. Spice is often used by law enforcement agencies to assist in telling the if a prisioner is telling the true story.
Yes, Gentlebeings, Spice is everywhere in legitemet formes. Some people may wish to use it for recreation purposes, that's their choice. But as a perfectly legitament choice, Spice can enhance our lifstyles greatly. Immagine, crowded and rowdy prisions quieted in days, simply by using spice as a reward to those better behaved.

There is a good side, and there is a bad side. The good side I have already stated, the bad side comes.

Every day thousands are victimized by bad spice. Doctors open a man's knee to find that he isn't in a state of bliss, but he is simply waiting for it to come. Law enforcement agencies use bad spice and make the wrong choice, emprisioning the wrong people. This is all from packaging by the black market. The hutts do not take to many precautions against bad spice.This is a fixable problem, and until now, no one has bothered to address it.
This is what we propose, the fix. Here, look up at the screen now.
Oops, wrong slide, that's my cousin.
Ah, nope, that's from the family vacation.
Ahh, there we go. This is Savarcos, and it produces two types of spice. The common white andris, and the very rare black carsunum. The white spice is useful for recreation purposes. It is commonly avalable legaly, but not in it's purest form. As a result many people die from using it.
The Rare black carsunum is the good stuff. It is capable of great halucination generation, Great mind probing, and is very good for medicinal purposes. When combined with common white, and a mixture of bacta and plain water, it becomes a very very good common pain killer.

A rich spice world, with two types of spice, one rare and one fairly common. What we propose is the erection of a clean sanitary faculty to harvest and prosess the spice. With gainfully employed professionals opperating the machinery instead of convicts, ridged standards for the quality of spice we ship, and a healthy marked, we predict that this venture will become very successful.
The painkiller factor of Carsunum would make us wildy rich, but there are many other ways to use spice that have not even begun to be tapped.

Thankyou for your time.

News of this new group ISS, Independent Spice Suppliers has been spreading for the last few weeks. At a recent open door meeting on Bonaden, a sales representative pitched the idea of a legit spice trade to Vinda Corp. fleet admiral Kas Katta.

<!--EZCODE BOLD START--> The idea, it is tantalizing. The idea is a good one. Mr Mordn, not only will VC support this venture, we will buy it. Begin your work to erect a hygienically safe and totally secure and profitable spice processing plant on Savarcos at once. I will take care of the PR and prepare the market.
But I warn you Mr Mordn, the Vinda Corporation is not to be taken lightly. If you backstab us you will not live to see any profits, or get away. So, to ensure that our down payment of 1200000 credits is safeguarded, I am sending a small task force of star destroyers along with you. These will also protect you from potential attacks from greedy competitors. Good luck to you.

Mr. Mordn was more than happy to get to the holonet that night, at last favorable results.
