Esteemed guests from across the galaxy snap out of hyperspace above the rocky planet of Atollon, finding themselves before a titanic red mass which sits above its orbit. The Balthazar Long-term Interstellar Settlement Station its at ten-thousand meters in all directions, more resembling a large asteroid than a space station. Their vessels are ushered by escort ships to one of ten bustling docks, where the red megastructure morphs into a bustling spaceport. Tourists scramble to collect their luggage and trade goods are swiftly whisked away to a lift, shipped off to the Bazaar on the top level of B.L.I.S.S. The crew of the St. Atollon are there to greet those invited for the showcase, guiding them to one of many transport trollies. As the trolly shoots off in a diagonal direction the spaceport becomes darkness, the innerworkings of the station. Then, as soon as all is without light, a neon glow comes rushing in. The sight can only be described as a luxury district on Coruscant if it had been swallowed by the planet. The trolly lets its passengers out in an elaborate plaza with a fountain, leading guests into a marble-like structure built around a ballroom called the Public Hall.

Once in the ballroom proper, guests will find a space covered in hologram models featuring facilities across the station, prototype designs, and ideas for expansion in the future. Tables with fine cloth coverings are spread across the room, as are various booths advertising food produced and cooked within the station. A hologram appears on a stage towards the far end of the room, a static image of an older Mon Calamari.

"Welcome. I am Pazarro Krinemon III, CEO of Krinemonen Hydraworks. I must first express my apologies for being unable to attend in person. After nearly 200 years of running the Hydraworks I'm afraid my body is not suitable for long-distance travel. Even so, I wish to give you all a glimps into what is laid before you today. Everything within this room has been constructed and refined within this very space station. Tables and chairs have been forged from space debris, broken down in our Molecular Furnace. All silks you will find to have been printed to microscopic detail within our Garment Fabricator. Even the food comes directly from our greenhouses and hydroponics farm. What you see laid before you is the bounty of an enclosed and self-sustaining echosystem, as well as the key to beginning the next wave of colonization across and inevitably beyond our Galaxy. In an hour's time we shall depart on a tour of the facilities aboard the St. Atollon, but in the meantime I invite you all to enjoy the pleasantries provided here in the Public Hall. Thank you all for your attendance."

As the hologram of the CEO fizzled out, staff would gesture for guests to enter the hall proper and enjoy the space. Servers began patrolling the ballroom with drink and snack trays while dedicated engineers took their place by holographic exibits in preperation for any questions that attendees may have about the station, a supplement while the trolly route for the tour was prepared. Of course, it was clear what all of this was: Advertisement. The Tingel Arm Coalition was the testrun, here to show off a proof-of-concept for the entire galaxy to see. Hydraworks hoped to ramp up production, selling the B.L.I.S.S. across the galaxy to establish tradeport civilizations in the furthest, most hostile territories where the most valuable resources lie.

All it needed was a good first impression.


OOC: Hey all! This is a big business thread centered around a large civilian space station made to support an internalized population, fabricate goods and small starships, and transport resources to hostile planets for settlement. They're basically the beginnings of an intergalactic trade spaceport network that I wanna get rolling, and Krinemonen Hydraworks is going to make itself available for commission for people who are looking to get their hands on such an asset. Yes, that means I am open to make factory submissions for those willing to drop the necessary credits and sweeten the deal with some trade. This is a neutral alignment thread so all are welcome. I only ask that if you wanna show up please don't stab anyone. Thank you all in advance.
