The Azadi punched out of hyperspace of New Alderaan and Senator Cal Starros punched in the coordinates for their landing, as he broadcast his diplomatic codes to the regional command. "Pilot, take us down." the ship swept in low over the skyline of the robust world, making steady progress toward the world below. After a few minutes, the high powered vessel pulled up and touched down on the designated landing pad.
Cal stood, and headed through the vessel to the exit ramp.
Heading down with his Droid and aide in tow, Senator Starros was pleased to be met by Nicolas Clément, a man with whom he was working closely on the defence of their shared space. He smiled as he greeted the man "Senator, it is a pleasure as always. I must admit I don't believe I have been to New Alderaan in years." he remarked "From our communications, you know I am here on unpleasant business I am afraid - war. With the increase in Sith aggression, and out proximity to their borders, my Government has asked me to secure vessels for a fleet of our own."
"I have arranged for us to meet representatives from some of the shipyards, Senators. And, Lothal has made available a sizable sum to make a solid purchase."
Cal thanked his aide with a nod "Senator, you are perhaps more learned than I on the structure of fleets. Whilst I have a handle on the finances, your advice on the structure of the fleet, would be most welcome before we speak to the suppliers."
