Dolvan Galia
Rogue Force-User
Corellia, sometimes called the Eldest. My home. Heading towards Coronet City, its capital, I received a transmission from the spaceport.
"Incoming ship, please identify in the name of the Omega Protectorate."
"This is Dolvan Galia, pilot of a HWK-290 light freighter call-sign The Grey Sentinel, requesting permission to land in the Coronet spaceport. Beaming my credentials over now."
"Receiving your credentials now. ... Alright everything seems to be in order Mr. Galia. Once you enter atmosphere please follow the guide ships to the landing area. Enjoy your stay on Corellia."
"Thank you."
As the transmission cuts off, I begin pulling into the atmosphere above Coronet City. While the view is lovely from this high up with the various hues of blues, greens and greys coloring the planet below, I still dread stepping onto the surface. As far as I remember, my father Dakarus Galia still lives in the city, probably still building ships in the factory. I sorta just left one day three years ago. I haven't talked to him at all during those years, trying to distance myself from Corellia as much as possible. Now I have to return and deal with his personality again. Chit, this is going to be an interesting few days. All I need to do is get the information I need and leave as soon as possible. There's a reason I left home when I did.
I follow the guide ships to the landing area of the spaceport. In a short transmission they tell me where to land: Platform E-17. A place a little out of the way. I needed this break. Landing smoothly, I get off my ship to meet the customs officer.
"Any goods to declare?"
"Nothing but basic traveling supplies."
I hand the officer a cargo report.
"Hmmm. Everything seems to be in order Mr. Galia. However I'm gonna have to send some of my boys to inspect the ship. You understand why right?"
A common check against smugglers on major worlds. Giving my consent, the customs officer sends a few of his subordinates to check my ship for smuggled materiel. Knowing this will take a while, I take in the scenery. The spaceport itself is full of large, open spaces surrounded by many buildings of varying sizes and heights. The port bustles with activity as ships depart, arrive, and unload. People shuffle around going about their business and an air of calmness fills the air. Beyond the spaceport lies Coronet City itself, its skyline dominated by skyscrapers. The customs officer takes my attention off the scenery.
"Everything's clear Mr. Galia. You're clear to leave the spaceport anytime you wish. Enjoy your stay in Coronet City."
Thanking the officer, he hands me a small data pad with my civilian clearances entered in. Now to enter Coronet City proper and go find my father.
*sigh*
This is going to be a long stay.
