Character

Fondor was not what he’d expected it to be. That said, he wasn’t sure what he’d expected it to be. A fortress world? Not particularly. The senate was housed there, and his understanding of the senate was that it was meant to be accessible to anyone. A fortress didn’t exactly scream “I’m accessible!” in his eyes. Quite the opposite. Darn if he didn’t feel like some street rat landing somewhere he didn’t belong, about to be chased by some ahole CorSec guy just because he’d wandered into a place he shouldn’t be by accident. Happened far too often, though not to him. Not anymore, anyway.
He tugged his jacket sleeve to make sure it was properly extended, took up his binder, and headed for the senate building. Even though the place gave him the heebie jeebies with its strong military vibe, he was there for business, and he had to ignore those feelings. The Alliance was at war, and, as a businessman, that meant there was profit to be made. At least that’s what his brother told him. Evran much preferred to look at it from the practical standpoint of getting to design and produce interesting vessels that also served the purpose of keeping them safe from the people that were attacking the Alliance. Those Imperial guys were far too close to Corellia for his liking, too.
Inside, he approached the receptionist and indicated he was there to speak to whomever was in charge of naval contracts, or whatever senators might be available. He was there to sell, but not just because they needed the money. Corellia needed to ensure its defense as well.
“I’ll let them know,” the receptionist said.
“Obliged,” Evran said with a nod before moving over to stand and look around the grand entry hall.
If he could land this contract it would provide much needed capital for Corellia StarDrive, and would sufficiently fund their ability to develop a second yard away from Corellia in the event of an attack by the Empire. He was personally hoping to branch out beyond the Alliance, perhaps to the High Republic, but it made the most sense to start first with the people charged with defending them in the current crisis. Plus he had the beginnings of several designs to share, upgrades that would be of benefit to the Alliance fleets, he was sure.
Provided he could speak with someone about it.
