The faint lull of humming electronics and pulsating generators filled the corridor with an ambiance that Eirys felt comfortable in. A Liann industrialist from Halquarn District, found in Lianna City, they were the head of a new Santhe Corporation-- revitalized and resurgent in a new unprecedented era at the beginning of the ninth century. Turning her sombre, almost tired gaze away from the ceiling to the voice, Eirys settled her gaze on the Quarren.
"Go on then, Admiral. How may I help you today?"
Admiral
Squesha cleared her throat.
"As you know this meeting never happened. It is off the books. Now to business."
She activated her holoprojector, revealing a middle aged man in an admirals uniform.
"This is Admiral Aesin Barlach. At present he commands the Ninth Fleet. I believe he is working against me, as whenever I conduct engagements with him I suffer several malfunctions and breakdowns in command. I believe he is trying to sabotage my career. I need you to investigate him and report back to me, then we can plan further actions."
She paused.
"I can pay you well for this."

Corporate espionage was not something Eirys was unfamiliar with. Indeed, from her experiences thus far with Vūm, it appeared that the non-profit had established ties and interconnected networks through a host of a dozen organisations located throughout the Outer Rim systems. Such information had been a guiding force into how Santhe Corporation intended to operate in the new ninth-century had it's period of decline and near ruination before it's revitalization earlier this year funded mostly by her associates and colleagues found in the Halquarn District in Lianna City.

Eirys turned her gaze away from the hologram to look both ways down the hall. There was a sense of trepidation as she looked around briefly for signs of a trap. The Quarren was suggesting a plot against an established military officer, and an admiral no less. A high offence that would result in criminal persecution. The idea of ending up in one of the ICD's factory prisons made the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. But there were no signs of the ISS or anyone else watching or listening.
She turned to look back at the hologram of Admiral Barlach, and to Squesha.

"Would you be willing to support a refit programme in the Confederation's naval forces in exchange for information?" Eirys inquired as she worked out how to use this situation to her advantage.
"Santhe has been developing a new Aegis line for the TIE fighter series. Upgrades that would significantly improve the technology of the starfighter corps in our armed services. If a programme were acceptable for refits of TIE models, I can work on your man."
Admiral
Squesha nodded. She had been following the Aegis program for some time now. She probably would have supported it anyway. Of course she would never admit that now.
"I am sure that can be arranged." Squesha replied. "I would be the first name behind it. Now then."
She took out a small metal cylinder.
This code cylinder should give you clearance to enter his ship, The Underminer. From there you would be on your own."

Santhe Corporation acquiring the backing of a venerated Admiral, whose conduct and service at the recent Thandon Star Cluster Campaign (in spite of the Confederation's defeat at Brosi), would be a major coup as they advanced the Aegis line and acquisition of new military contracts with the Imperial naval military complex under

's command. Therefore it was music to Eirys ears when the Quarren before her volunteered her support without even so much as negotiating personal terms.But there were still issues that Eirys had when it came to the arrangement she was making with Squesha. Somehow, they had acquired a coding cylinder which would grant Eirys access to her rival's ship, but there was an glaring issue which was staring the Santhe girl in the face when it came to this act of corporate espionage. What would be the purpose behind her boarding the Underminer be in order to explain her presence on the ship?
This question could be put aside when a more pertinent one came up as Eirys carefully considered her role in this conspiracy given the fact that if she was caught and charged by the ICD for crimes then it would almost certainly result in incarceration and time served in a factory prison. The idea of this made the hairs on Eirys neck stand up at the idea of it given the rumours that all those who entered such places were destined to never leave...
"I have somethings to work out first before we can begin this partnership," Eirys explained to Squesha. "One thing comes to mind are the specifics concerning what it is you are exactly looking for? I need to know what to look for if I am to do this for you..."
Admiral
Squesha frowned. She had not put much throught into details. She collected her thoughts, bringing to the forefront her chief suspicions.
"I need you to look for plans to sabotage me," Squesha explained, "I want any evidence that he will try to degrade my efficiency, disable my ships systems, lead crewmembers on a mutiny or even attempt to get me killed by a damaged ship or ambush that he can write off as a surprise enemy attack."
Squesha paused. If she was caught doing this, dealing with her in such a way, she could lose everything. TO investigate your peers without proper protocol was bad enough, but giving an outsider major security clearance was amount to treason.
"I trust you will be discreet?
