Ryloss Narexsus
Character
Ryloss checked his fuel gauge again. Definitely not enough to make the long stretch. He opened the galactic map in front of him. The holographic interface showed the three closest places to stop off at. Without bothering to look at the name, he allowed the ship to run it's own hyper drive parameters.
It was only a brief trip and he was soon looking at a space station. He opened up the comms and directed the feed straight to the station.
"This is the 993-MC-18, requesting permission to reload and refuel."
He waited for a reply, setting for it to go straight to his ear piece as he got up and went to where he had the cargo stored.
The cargo in question was a small wooden crate, about a twenty centimeters in length and half as high and wide. He needed to make sure that whatever was in it wasn't explosive or would be picked up on scanners. Crouching, Ryloss opened it. What he saw confused him. Nestled in the back of the box was a metal cylinder. He rolled it out into his palm, testing the weight. He opened it and checked inside. Then everything was clear to him.
It was pure quality spice, the kind of which he almost never saw. Slowly, he closed it and placed it back in the box. He climbed out of the false floor and slid the panel back into place, before heading back to the bridge to listen to the answer, if any.
