Hidden in Plain Sight

[Judah Dashiell]

Lowick | Salacia Consolidated Lowick Campus



Steamy humidity covered the planet of Lowick, causing sweat to bead at his temples and down the back of his shirt already. Feet worked up a path-in-progress to the top of a large hill overlooking the Lowick Campus. Towards the top was a landing pad where he would meet a Mr. [member="Audren Sykes"] . Judah didn't know much about Ceredir Industries and the man but rumor had it he was in the camouflage business.


He reached the top, feet on the landing pad. Judah would remain on the edge of it, looking down at the Lowick Campus. The main facility was already in place. Construction remained around the edges and towards to the ocean behind him. There were plans for an ocean energy project, testing for larger markets.


Wanting to stay under the radar, Judah found Mr.Sykes to reach out to. Hopefully the man and his company could prove valuable.

By all appearances, Lowick was a very nice planet. Rainforests made the planet very green, bringing up memories of Cholganna and a dozen other planets. He wasn't here for personal time though, nor was he here on behalf of the Silver Jedi, despite the close proximity. This was company time, specifically for Ceredir Industries. It would be considered billable time, if the money wouldn't have ended up coming out of his accounts anyways.

Normally the assignment would have gone to one of the small but growing team of salesbeings on Ceredir's payroll. Salacia Consolidated, however, wasn't just any potential client. The company spanned the galaxy and was much larger than Ceredir currently was. Besides that though, [member="Judah Dashiell"] was a friend of the Order. Audren remembered the man being present at Silver Jedi events back when he himself had just joined, and possibly a couple of Galactic Alliance events as well. In short, not the sort of thing - the sort of person - that got less than personal attention.

After receiving permission to do so, the Sephi brought his transport down to the surface. The vessel was a work in progress under alpha-level testing for his other company, but was reliable enough when not pushed. Most importantly, it was not what he normally used. He personally worked with a Rekali-class starfighter; the visage offered by the high gun count and heavy armor would be less than desirable. Ceredir also had a ship, but that was a frigate. Somewhat large and overbearing. No, the simple and unadorned transport was best. It slowed to a stop above the designated pad and gently lowered to a landing. He left the pilot to perform the abbreviated shutdown checklist required and made his way out onto the landing pad to greet the senior businessman.
