Command center

Meridian Prime space station

Kessel Sector

In the wake of so much conflict, there was something disquieting about the calm in Meridian Prime's command center. While the terminals themselves were in various forms of disrepair—ranging from sparking husks to distorted screens—the lack of any presence at all made it feel solemn. It would have been a hive of activity not too long ago. Now, only a few individuals still stood within, tasked with recovering what intelligence they could. Ness'arin Ohnaka transferred from her flagship to to command center to personally monitor and coordinate the highly delicate operation.

One of the holo-screens on the temporary, jury-rigged console her technicians had set up in front of her thrummed to life, playing a holo-recording the Inquisitorius had taken from the surveillance archives. Through the blue hue of the flickering hologram, a small team of Scholae agents breached the scuttled dreadnought, Akan. The team was one of many sent to the vessel, but they drew the Director’s eye for their utter savagery and brutal effectiveness.

Among them, in particular, the massive Zabrak, Bale Andros, was of great interest. She observed the man eschew cover for a barrage of repeater fire that toppled enemy after enemy. The wanton slaughter and feeling of enjoyment was impressive, if somewhat disconcerting to the Weequay.

A second holo-screen shone to life with a flicker and drew the Director’s attention away from the Zabrak. Ohnaka smiled as she observed another interesting “specimen”. Alaris Jinn, a Taldryanite, stood amidst the chaos of the panicked brokers in Meridian station’s stock exchange. Much more engaged with whatever monetary damage he could do to Capital Investments than fighting the enemy, Alaris’ every purchase and sale devalued Capital Enterprises as a whole and ruined their investments across the galaxy.
