The Great Zeltros Spice Shipment [Open]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcgft-iiZ_s​

The Spice must flow. A term that's been used forever for this trade. Once, a very long time ago; people cleaned up and the trade nearly collapsed. Not that's ever been a problem since. Now more than ever has Spice been more widely used. And Zeltros was the main buyer of the drug. Their wild planet wide parties were legendary. And they were swinging up for something big! To do that though they needed Spice, and a lot of it. The best variants came from Kessel. Glitterstim and modified strains mined and made for the enjoyment of its abusers. Black Sun was all to happy to provide the service and reap the profits.

Incoming to Zeltros was a bulk goods starship. Stuffed to the bulkheads with its precious cargo. It's manifest was foodstuffs from Kafane. They weren't expecting any hassle with the importation of these goods though. On the bridge was Rayl Wilded. Helping to oversee this operation ran smoothly and the profit was fat and in the Black for the Suns. Beside him was @Blitz. The notorious afro'ed drug lord and a reliable criminal as Rayl knew him. Hopes of success were very high. "We're about five minutes out. Gona be happy to see this job done and us back where I can feel at ease. Got any plans to spend your cut mate"?
 
As planets went Zeltros was one of the more extreme worlds dedicated to a life of hedonistic pleasures. Those came in many forms and flavors and were regarded on equal footing as both lascivious and unforgettable. For the prudes of the Galaxy that would preach against it's 'Sin'drome of debauchery, Blitz was fully confidant that more than a majority of those also had time to time gotten their jollies at the hands or several of the planet's near infinite supply of succulent flesh. Amaul Jaris was a man of means and opportunity, and when he saw the possibility of doing business with a planet that was literally swimming in everything that made a person feel good - there wasn't a decision to be made, except to bring in the cargo requested. His own vaults of product were stacked till near bursting, the payload for the profit. A continual contract with the planet was the end game however. He'd come as the representative to lay down terms and conditions enough to warrant a continual passage to the planet still under the rule of the Republic. Though like many worlds (Nar Shaddaa included) those that were within the scope of the Republic were not as beholden to their ideals, or as welcoming to their forces. They may hold the world in their sway, but the comings and goings of the people - those couldn't be independently policed, and that is where crime won over politics time and again.

Blitz wore many proverbial hats in the Black Sun market; a chemist, a poet, a negotiator, and certainly a businessman. Though most of all, Blitz was a criminal who put his thinking cap to good use, and generally outsmarted his opponents in ways they would not expect. He wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty though, and didn't delegate a great deal. He ran a family in the Suns, a family of loyal followers whom he referred to as brothers and sister. Agents for a cause, but a tightly knit and respected family. The reasons for his interest in such a group were many, but rare few ever pieced together some of the most notable reasons. He didn't talk about his past, and anyone trying to pry around in his head for facts and dates would be a sore loss, with his Epicanthix blood running hot through his body. His mind was his own, shut off to the Galaxy, which kept all matters he didn't want known private and secure. The man with the ship next to him - he was a trusted ally, but he was not family. Most of the Black Sun were independent, as it worked better for their dealings. He knew him though - as much as he wanted to anyway, and was willing to strike deals and do jobs with a man who had seen war, and put the interest of the Suns of paramount importance.

"I've always got plans my man, always in motion - and always profitable." A sly grin rose from his visage while the pixel crafted credit sign appeared on both lenses of his digital shades to indicate his prime motivation. "Zeltros would make a fine run for mah continued product advancement. World's got a beat to it, and it's pulse is high and vital. That pleasure cocktail only gets better when you had some spice to da mix, ya dig?" His smooth as caramel vocals were notably relaxed and peaceful. Amaul had a laid back charm to his talk, and to his appearance. The eclectic blend of a hodgepodge of styles worked in tandem to present an off-kilter image. He was certainly not what you would expect from a Crime Lord, and that worked in his general favor. From his pocket a small metal case was flipped out, and in a motion practiced thousands of times he flipped out a custom stick and touched it between his lips, using the other side of the case for it's lightning capabilities before a slow drag was taken in to relish the flavor blends. About a half a minute later the slow exhale of smoke passed through his nostrils, in what he liked to call 'chasing the dragon'. "One for the docking?" He offered up, a rare treat to get one of Blitz's special stash. Of course he didn't have to use it now, but having one was something people didn't generally refuse.

"Sorry Blitz, but I've been clean for decades. Only takes a hit to go slipping back down. I'll stick to my drink". The refusal was made in the most polite fashion possible. Rayl never wanted to offend those in The Syndicate. One bout of bad blood could last a life time and do damage beyond imagination down the road. Sun's are best to spit venom at their foes then each other. "I need to be ready at all times on the job in case things go... Calamarian belly up". The man knew all to well about Republic traps, easy to spring. And always a fight to escape their jaws. Being blown out of his mind would only get him killed. Jedi were no joke. The cargo ship lurched back into real space. Zeltros floated about before them, a fortune to be had below. One Black Sun will have all for itself.

Their ship touched down minutes latter. A little smooth talking over the comms with the traffic controllers to gain entry. All's well so far. Rayl moved down from the bridge to the loading bay. The door lowering to the unknown. "Hope your boys have this wrapped up and sealed tight. A fight wouldn't be handy with all the work unloading this thing will be". Then again, he was feeling himself getting in the mood for cracking skulls. Adrenalin was rushing through his blood. He licked his lips in anticipation.
 
One dark brow rose over the bridge of the digital shades at the curious and unconventional response. Blitz couldn't remember the last time someone had objected to a free hand-out from the halfbreed. A low snort escaped his nostrils with a puff of smoke accenting the flare of his nostrils. The credit signs had vanished from their respective dark lenses, only to be replaced by a digital face, forming into a synchronized frown, before they blinked again to the glossy black facade. Amaul wasn't jaded from the refusal, but slightly put off that the coveted blend of spice that resided in his custom stash wasn't favored by the pirate to his flank. It wasn't the end of the world however, and his shoulders rose and fell with a placid shrug -- digits curling the stick back into it's case to retreat back into an inner vest pocket. Another slow drag was taken as the craft lurched from the hyperspace tunnel, and visibly blinked into space again, hovering before that lovely hedonistic world of sin and pleasure.

"Water which is too pure, has no fish." Amaul commented absently about Rayl's remark about being clean. Sterility would kill you faster than a bit of poison here and there racing through your system. He could appreciate wanting to keep a level head - an often struggled with manifest that Blitz had to deal with himself. He hid it well though, and had built up a fair amount of immunity to the recreational substances that he put into his body. It was definitely not a temple for him, although what he produced was something of his own religious experience. You had to have something to get up for in the morning, or else you were just existing, and not thriving. "I can feet da beat from here, it's solid - and tempting." The spice king commented while he took a few steps forward as the loading ramp began to descend. Personally he couldn't hear it, but it was something of a notion he held whenever he docked on this planet. The party that never stopped - and he'd never want it to. Digits tugged on his vest while sneaker shod shoes carried him to one of the repulsor lifts carrying a stack of four crates, pushing the hovering device across the durasteel floor plan, heading for the breach of light as it filtered into the ship.

"Open sesame."
