[HQD Summit Report]: Lekparture

Introduction

A Message from the Quaestor

Hallo, my lektastic Qel-Dromites!

It is with a heavy heart that I bid adieu to my trusty right-lek woman, Jazzy. She’s been nothing but terrific throughout her tenure as Aedile, but she has some pretty solid reasons for her departure which I fully understand. Thank you, again, for your hard work and I hope you’ll stay with us in the coming Vendettas, you magnificent sausage!

In other news, we’re in the final week of the Clan-wide event! Get your slug-stomping boots out boys and girls, ‘cus we’re kicking some Hutt butt! If you need any help in, say, organizing some Tic-Tac-Toe matches for Gaming participation, let me know! I am excellent at putting crosses and/or circles inside squares at a 73% accuracy rate. Minimum!

Signed, Your Lekhead

A Message from the Aedile

Hello fellow Qel-Dromans!

Well, this is a bittersweet message. To me, everyone has been like a second family and I am thankful for that. Something that can’t really be replaced. I thank each one of you for all the hard work that goes into making this unit a fun place to serve.

I hope to have more time available in the future for wars and vendettas, but as of now, I’m a little strapped for time. I’m not one for too many fluffy words, so… There’s a report to get you updated on all things unit/clan!

May the Force be with you, Jazzy

House Fiction Update

Phantom Complex
Port Ol’val
Late 40 ABY

Just because they were deploying on their own didn’t mean she would just leave all the intelligence that House Qel-Droma’s spy rings could muster unused. Tali Sroka had done her best to furnish all of the partaking House operatives with as much information about what they would be up against as she could muster, but even so there was that nagging doubt in the back of her mind that something was going to go wrong.

She had been sensing it for weeks now and dreading it ever since. A sudden and unexpected loss. For all her developing talent in Farsight, that was as far as she’d gotten. Each time she contemplated the vision, it defied her perception. The only thing that remained was an aching sense of loss and the suddenness of that moment.

It was thus with mounting dread that she had relayed the Consul’s orders to her House. Each of the agents were close to her, as fellow Arconans if nothing else, and to lose any of them would be a blow. But she had not dabbled in the arts of scrying the Force to merely accept its ephemeral whims. The one who clung too close to prophecy, or worse yet acted against it, would be doomed to see its completion.

As such, she’d stomached the trepidation and given the go-ahead for Voidbreaker to launch. The final preparations would be underway even now.

“Ma’am Quaestor, a moment of your time?” The curtly polite tone of Avery Watson snapped her to the moment. His hazel-green eyes, so often a source of humorous glints even in the darkest of places, were cold steel. The claws of fate gripped the Twi’lek’s heart—had it already come to pass?

“Vhat is it?” she inquired with trepidation, bracing for the death notice or worse.
