Via Dolorosa
Amans In Tenebris
Tion Dr'iol sat comfortably in the back of the aircab, fingers steepled together, and his eye watching the passing building with some slight enthusiasm. Since the moment of landing on the surface of Onderon, he had been looking forward to this meeting. Most of his meetings consisted of meeting new clients, signing new contracts with governments, or firing incompetent workers. However, by the good graces of capitalism the meeting he was heading toward now was a mixture of business and pleasure.
"Five minutes, sir."
The droid's automated voice broke him out of the spell of passing scenery. Tion glanced at the aircab's driver and gave him a sharp but reasonable nod. Next to him, was his little cache of notes and mix-matched holodisks of varying designs and schematics from the minds and hearts of the engineers at TDI. Tion, by nature of his species, was a penny-pincher, always finding new excuses not to spend TDI's credits needlessly. When it came to the engineer's payroll, he spared no credit; great minds where hard to come by.
"Your destination, sir. Please enjoy your stay."
Tion exited the aircab and handed the droid his datacard. The droid, after scanning it and the funds transfer was complete, handed the little piece of technology back to the Muun. With the handle of his cache firmly in his hands, he headed into the Flying Drexel restaurant; and was immediately taken to his reserved seat. He ordered a small Corellian ale and leaned back in his seat to wait for the arrival of a potential future partner.
