Nameless Planet, Orbit
It had been some time since the hidden shipyard had been secured from the ill-fated smugglers that had used it as their base. The fools didn't know the potential of their makeshift home, nor did they take advantage of the raw materials still left around by the facility's builders. While not near enough to construct the Dominator, it had allowed the price of the overall construction drop from ridiculous to merely "building a new fleet". The accountants would be a bit happier for that, once they knew after the fact. With how Kurtis had manipulated the funds and paperwork to cover his tracks from spies, no one location had received a larger influx of credits or orders for supplies to make it seem that all this money was being spent equally across the fleet. He couldn't be too careful, as it wouldn't do for the Jedi or Mandaloreans to learn of this ship before it was done with it's construction.
To that end, all builders and security hired for this job were kept on site and not allowed to leave the system until they were done. Their contact to communication outside the immediate area was also limited and monitored, yet few complained about these stringent measures. They had all been told of the terms of their work beforehand, though not exactly what they would be working on, so only those willing to work with these conditions had been hired and thus were prepared for the incredibly tight security. Such a situation made it easy to see when someone tried to do something they were supposed to, though, meaning a fair number of spies or fools had already been found and dealt with.
Kurtis stood in the main computer security room that had been converted from a conference room in the shipyard. The physical and cyber security that he had hired was a company from Hapes, SmartSec as they were called, and while their services had required top dollar they had so far paid for their investment and then some. Mainly run by women, as was common for the Hapes system in general, their loyalty to their employer and overall skill had proven invaluable in preventing espionage and the accidental reveal of his new ship. A warning light flashing on one of their consoles made him aware that another attempt was happening, someone trying to slice into their systems. He trusted them to stop the attempt, but he knew it had to be local. "Mr. Ordo, we have another one trying to break radio silence. It seems like it's coming from Bay 4. May I ask that you handle this one just like the rest? I leave the manner to your discretion." Turning off his commlink, he again admired the Bounty Hunter's dedication to his contract. It was one of the smarter business decisions he had made so far.
