Once again We Rise with a little help from our friends (GA, RHOA, Allies, Friends)

Her discontent of the swarthy, sweltering atmosphere showed only in the number of the buttons left open on her blouse.

Erida had schooled her features into a perfect picture of a placid lake and swept into the tent. Blonde to blonde. How quaint.

They shook hands. Sat. The Umbaran waved her bodyguards outside and extracted a slim datapad from her valise.

“Well enough,” Teheron conceded. “I must confess myself fonder of more urban climes. This is all a bit too,” she pinched her lips, “rustic for my tastes.”

“But I digress. We have much business to discuss, Miss…?”

"Saffron," the blonde would reply, extending her hand. "Of Arceneau Trade Company, I'm here representing PharmaTech." she added with a warm smile.

"The humidity could be an issue, but it should get better." with a small gesture, she offered the woman a seat. "I hope that we will be able to get to work quickly, " she added.

"Our decontaminators will soon be in place, but we require a serum that can be utilized to help keep the chances of an allergic reaction down from the neutra serum we use to neutralize toxins."

Saffron. Named after spice – and they called the Outer Rim odd.

Whatever her mental musings, her expression remained the same staid mask. This was business. Legal business, even.

She folded her hands over the datapad and listened to the PharmaTech representative without blinking once. When the blonde finished, Erida gave a subtle nod.

“You’ll be pleased to hear you’ve chosen the right firm for the job,” she said, picking up the thread with the ease of a debater forged at gunpoint. Such civil conversation was child’s play compared to negotiations she’d helped conduct back home.

“Our specialists will need the chemical specifications for your neutra serum, naturally. Preferably also several samples, so that we can get to work isolating the allergens right away. I understand you’re working under quite the timeline, correct?”

Teheron lifted the thin device from her lap to take a few notes, then lifted her expectant gaze back to [member="Saffron"].

"I certainly belive so," Saffron replied, sitting down. " We can provide you the sample of neutra serum." turning to her right, the young blonde woman slide back a small drawer and picked up a small box. Bringing up, she set it in front of Teheron.

"You will find a vial of the serum, along with detailed research regarding the known reactions to the several species we've encountered." the snaps gave a slight sound as she undid them, lifting the lid. As the blonde had said, a sample is there.

"There are non compete and non-disclosure agreements to sign of course. This is a proprietary formula. However, if you are able to adequately create a vaccine or antidote to lessen allergic reactions, you can rest with the knowledge that Arceneau Trade would be your major purchaser for such serum. However you choose to disperse to others is also entirely up to you."

She looked across the street she did not know why she was looking that way. It was..as if she was drawn to walk that way. Her body reacted before her mind, one foot moved than the other followed as she walked slowly.

What was it that was drawing her away ? Was it she didn't know she only knew everything told her to go.

She had long wished for simpler times. Those days were gone.

What could she do now?

She looked again....she saw movement but who was it?

 

[Nadir]

Few things were as pleasing to Erida as a competent mind on the other side of the proverbial table. There were precious few downsides to operating on the… interesting side of the law. One of them was that all too often, the people she ended up sparring with were half-witted brutes and gun-toting folk who wouldn’t know a contract from toilet paper.

[member="Saffron"] clearly knew how to do business.

“I’m certain Comet will find these terms more than agreeable,” she said, leaning an inch further to take in the contents of the case. Satisfied, she closed the clasps again and set the box down next to her seat.

“There’s also the matter of progress reports to settle, if you should like to receive them, of course. Alternately, we’re more than happy to simply deliver the final product when it’s synthesized and appropriately tested.”

Faith stopped she had to look at her data pad, Ahh, the supplies from Delaya were arriving. The buildings, the Hospital, University, Museum and Palace would be repaired in a few weeks with the droids hard at work. This was good news.

The hospital was needed. Many were still in the refugee centers in the desert and seeming to be doing well. Some had already decided to building homes out there away from the City, away from the possibility of attack again. The 4th time probably would not be a charm.

She thought about Crevasse City she still didn't have an update there. But maybe...just maybe there was good news there too.

Saffron gave a nod. "Progress reports would be beneficial. Our need is to ensure that we have our own decontamination programs progress in a neat timeline. While we are able to decontaminate as much as we can, we would like to ensure safety before proceeding with the neutra serum for biochemical decontamination until we have the vaccine you will create."

Safety was always paramount when it came to these things.

Saffron stood and moved to shake the young woman's hand. "It has been a pleasure. I am grateful for your assistance in this."
