Dunames Lopez
Megalomaniac CEO of Star Tours
Was Dunames becoming nothing more than a backup pilot for Star Tours? Of course, this Lanteeb-Ringo Vinda flight was her first flight as a Tofolk pilot, having piloted the other four classes in Star Tours service at some point, so she felt a little uncomfortable with the controls (but not the TCAS or GPWS) at first. After her last trip on Thakwaa, where she discovered that damotite was, in its inhaled form, an addictive drug for Thakwaash, she was called up on Lanteeb while the captain fell ill and couldn't do the return flight of the Beaches of the Dark Side cruise. She did bring the point that Sump, Lanteeb and Verkuyl were planets where logistic chains were bottlenecked by spaceport capacity during the summit. But what she didn't suspect at the time was that the next shipment was to be loaded mostly with damotite, while only 94 passengers were boarding the flight up to Ringo Vinda, which could all be seated in first class at no extra cost. In fact, the free upgrade lasted as long as Ringo Vinda: the ship was to stop on Ringo Vinda and pick up passengers to Morellia, the ship's final destination, while no damotite would be unloaded and no extra cargo was to be picked up other than the passengers' baggage.
"Merrily, how many containers of damotite are in there?"
"Here's the cargo manifest Mrs. Brisson left us before she hurreidly went to the hospital"
"Holy cow? 242 containers of damotite? All bound for Morellia? Had the Morellian Weapons Conglomerate been caught for insalubrity?"
Each container contained 55 tons of refined damotite apiece. The product manager of the Beaches of the Dark Side travel package series was scheduled to depart for Kothlis and then on to Glee Anselm and, from there, to Dubrillion, with Dulvoyinn now being out of the question. Dunames guessed that, with Victoria Brisson becoming sick, she would need to delay the release of other destinations in the Beaches of the Dark Side line of vacation packages. And she was noticeably absent from the Summit, too. For the first time in months, Dunames felt the need to shapeshift, doing so in a bathroom because she needed to take off clothing before she could undertake the process.
