The Dathomir System.
All eyes were on the Mandalorians because of what happened here, and not in a good way. Off in the distance he could see the planet Dathomir, a huge green marble. It was so strange to him how a planet like Dathomir had stayed so...stagnant in its ways. No technological growth had been see for thousands, if not millions of years and still no one besides the Mandalorians seemed stupid enough to even set foot on the planet, let alone try to reason with the local witch clans.
And not even a full hyperspace jump away in the same system was Zanj. A planet touched by what was probably the first and last attempt of the Witches of Dathomir to join the Galaxy. The people here had instead become innovators. While they themselves weren't the most advanced species out there, they had access to two things: Impressive ancient technology and natural kyber crystal. These two things had finally brought them to par with the rest of the Galaxy after the Gulag Plague had brought about a dark age for the Galaxy and they were thriving. It was here that some of the best and most exotic shield tech was developed and their work on Droid intelligence was impressive.
And he was going there.
Albeit with Kaine of MandalArms. After their arguably messy assault on Utapau that would change how the Mandalorian Empire was run the Mandalorians quickly squandered their kyber crystals with the supply split between MandalArms and MandalMotors for use in experiments and research. The two companies had developed new war ships that utilized the crystals in their turbolasers but without a steady supply those ships would soon become liabilities rather than wonders. A local by the name of Njau Imani had reached out to Mandalore after their assault on Dathomir. It had only taken this long to make their way to Zanj because of the reconstruction effort.
Zeke was excited to get his hands on the droid and shield tech even if their first mission was to secure Kyber Crystals for the Empire.

To help our Mando companies get a head start on this new Company Ruleset Change I've started a thread that can be used for a variety of the requirements. Zanj is a planet ripe for startups and meeting NPC organizations that can give your tech an edge in Shield, droid part, and droid brain (maybe even Ai?) development. Go nuts!
