[Grozurra]

Myrkr Campaign
Act 05: What's Mined is Mine

As was always the case, Grozurra went where the credits went. In most cases, that required a lot of communications and arguments before the wookiee could find himself whisked halfway across the galaxy and shoved into a combat zone for a few dozen credits a day. Sometimes the pay was good, sometimes it wasn't. Today... The pay was spectacular. The assignment was as close to home as it could get. And the odds of getting shot at were remarkably low.

But how anyone had come to the conclusion that he was qualified to serve as a mining foreman was beyond him. He stood upon the dusty ground of Concordia. The sound of heavy machinery and lumbering droids echoed through canyon walls. Hundreds, if not thousands of workers busied themselves with one task or another. The sight before him was more akin to a swarm of insects than that of humanoids at work. And for all the majesty of the cooperation between workers and droids and heavy machinery, what kept the wookiee captivated was not that which toiled too and fro. But what they worked so hard to assemble.

[Grozurra]

Resting along the length of the valley was the segmented hulls of twelve Harvester-class Mining Facilities. Legs and segments scattered about the ground like the discarded husks of so many great insects. The hull of each walking machine still broken down into three sections each. The sight, to Grozurra, was mesmerizing. It was like watching ants pick apart grasshoppers, but in reverse.

And somehow, he had been put in charge of it all. By the Queen queen of Clan Dem'adas herself. She claimed that he came highly recommended by the CEO of Mandal Hypernautics... Which made sense... But also didn't. Grozurra hadn't been aware that his repeat employer had held him in such high regard. He simply... Hit things.

Grozurra sighed deeply as he watched the swarm of workers and droids continue the long process of assembling the massive mining machines. In front of him, a small table was set up in the valley. Atop the table were numerous topographic maps, survey scans, and recon reports that the wookiee was expected to review before selecting the twelve sited that they would be mining.

The wookiee sighed again.
