Derisive Umbaran
BESPIN - NALOTEK BELT
BASANTA - CHIEF ADMINISTRATOR'S OFFICE
BASANTA - CHIEF ADMINISTRATOR'S OFFICE
The scorch marked doors slide open, revealing an office so thoroughly defaced that it would be hard to tell it was still an office. Smashed furniture, insensitive graffiti, more scorch marks from errant blaster fire.
Anarchist residue. Calder Dune sniffs with disdain as he enters, still leaning on his precious cane for support, still shadowed by his sinister protocol droid. The droid posts itself by the door, and Caulder ambles to a spot behind the former chief administrator's bulky desk, still welded to the floor.
Behind the desk (which itself bears a wicked crack down the middle from an ill-fated attempt to smash it in half) patches of carpet have been torn up, revealing an unsightly floor.
On a cursory inspection of the office following Basanta's acquisition, it had been found that some of the rioters had relieved themselves in various spots of the room. The offending areas had been removed and disposed of by Silver Shield contractors rather than cleaned.
This whole city was going to need remodeling anyway. What was one more room? After a few minutes, the office doors slide open again, giving way for Luca Caldogne to enter.
"There you are," Caulder drones, shifting from one foot to the other, "I'd offer you a seat, but the good ones are in short supply."
Meaning also that none were presently there. Standing meetings move faster anyway. In a distant corner of the room, a small, boxy machine has been plugged into an outlet. It rumbles quietly, purifying the air and emitting a faint, pleasant, citrusy smell.
"I hope you're enjoying our newest little slice of the galaxy. I myself am remarkably pleased."
Caulder Dune angles his head, peering past Luca into the hallway beyond. "Did Tritum follow you here?"
