Public Famous for Fifteen Minutes

Location - Coruscant - HNN Studio


"This is Holly Starstorm here at our very own HNN studio to advertise the newest reality series hit. Tonight our guests will be given fifteen minutes of airtime to get their message out. We will then take calls from the galaxy at large to see how our viewers feel about those fifteen minutes. We have a lot of exciting things ahead so stay tuned for the premier episode of "Famous for Fifteen Minutes!"


The cameraman yelled cut and Holly pulled off her microphone. She headed backstage where a group of contestants had been gathered and were waiting for their air time.

"Hi everyone! It's so nice to meet you. Thank you for being on the show tonight. The process is pretty simple. We will call you up one at a time and ask you a few questions. Then we will call the next person. At the end of the show you will all be sitting on stage and we will allow our audience to ask questions. Does everyone understand? Any questions?"
 

Holly Starstorm

Heath Valhoun, a king was sitting here in a studio. It wasn't new to him...he had done it before for his speech, announcing The Elysium Empire's intent to the galaxy. This, however, was slightly different. He was going to be on a more local, small platform. It wouldn't reach every planet in the galaxy, but the people would respect a privately owned media company more than the "official" channel of The Empire.

So here he stood, awaiting his 15 minutes on stage. He would be asked questions by the host, Holly Starstorm, and then he would be given some time to respond. His plan was to show the citizens of the galaxy that The Elysium Empire is not an evil Empire. It is a Monarchy for the people, not for the Monarch. He wanted to show the social side more than the military side. His hope was the broadcast would reach people that hadn't seen his speech. His expectations, however, were somewhat low.

 
"Her entire existence terrifies me to no end"
M’liss grinned widely- some how and probably to someone’s great misfortune, she had made it here! The lovely lady by the name of Holly explained how it was going to work- and her grin widened.

Clutched in her hand, was Sheela, her trusty notepad and her pen was in her hand already, hovering right over the blank page.

The young lady had never been live- but she did have stories to tell. MANY stories. For the young lady traveled all about- WAIT!!! Maybe... this should be a sort of biography... Hm, that may be interesting.- For I traveled across the galaxy in search of stories and boy have I found them. Sarlaccs, ship crashes, and swoop races Galore!!!

M’liss looked up briefly from her writing, smiling as she was once again in those adventures. Then she snapped back to reality as some commotion surrounded her. Yes- the first interview was about start.
 
Kay sat in her chair backstage and listened to Holly Starstorm as she relayed the interview structure. This wasn't the first time that she had been in front of the cameras. The former High Queen of the Commenor Systems Alliance was well used to being in the spotlight. But that was in the past. That was before her capture, imprisonment, rescue, new role as Empress, caoture, escape from execution and exile. So much had happened since her Trade Alliance fell to the Sith.

And now? Now she ran a tea company on a backwater planet, out of the crosshairs of the Galaxy. Her son Caedyn Arenais wants her housed on back on Commenor, yet she wasn't entirely comfortable with that. Her late husband advised her to not waste the rest of her life away, his final parting words, which were also echoed by her son.

Kay's daughter Loreena Arenais-Valhoun Loreena Arenais-Valhoun seemed to be battling through her grief by fighting the Eternal Empire. Already a hunter working for them ( Ingrid L'lerim Ingrid L'lerim ) had visited her shop to warn her about the consequences of her daughter's fight.

So now she was here in hopes to do well for her family. Things don't always go as planned though, especially when interviews were live.

Her eyes drifted to the other two. Mliss Roo Mliss Roo seemed eager to participate. Yet with her notebook and pen, Kay wasn't sure if she was a journalist or someone being interviewed as well. Heath Valhoun Heath Valhoun was an easy one to guess. His stature and presence gave her every indication that he was here for the cameras. It came at no surprise that she didn't recognize him. Her exile kept her away from the holo-newsfeeds. But at least she'd walk away from this live event with some indication of what was going on out there.

The Galaxy was a cold stranger to her now and here she was looking to catch it's attention for just fifteen minutes.
