Snippet #2478509

"We said nothing about building two temples on one world," Larimar casually remarked as the vehicle arrived at the Senate building. Its earlier distress had robbed the chance of gaining an early advantage so the Shard would have to be extremely cautious on the floor.

"Perhaps a test of some form is in order, as you've told us before...the Jedi failed the Republic once. We need to consider the big picture, two temples on two worlds would be easier to maintain in terms of galactic peace. Besides, our Sector has had quite the issue of pirates, raiders and rampant activity of criminal and Separatist alike. Something as a whole rather harmful to the economy." The Shard exited the vehicle with the woman's signal.

"The Empire only protects their economic interests and has no desire to lend further aid. The Republic on the other hand has yet to act in regards to our situation and we haven't the funds to hire a bounty hunting army. We shall withhold our vote until a proper examination of the Jedi option has been conducted." By this point they had reached the entrance, the Senators could bring guards but as security was provided it'd be unusual for personal guards to enter.

"Tania, if you could handle the affairs during the Preamble we'd be most grateful. We'll handle your entry and clearance from here so you may join at any time." The Senator hoped the perceptive young woman to pick up his intention of keeping appearances natural and beneath suspicion. Given the near thousand Senators, the formal greetings and protocol could easily take hours. She'd easily have the time to make the necessary calls; meet the Jedi and in all honesty, and it neither knew nor cared how she'd reach any Sith.
