Illegal Rancor Auction || Felucia, Outer Rim Territories
Ever since the Empress of the Sith had declared herself Queen of Dathomir and stricken outsiders from setting foot on her sacred world, the rancor trade had taken a sharp nosedive. But there were still beasts out there if one knew where to look. And Mordeth knew where to look. Felucia was still in the Sith Empire, but on its borders, and far from the prying eyes of any of the Sith's major Lords and Ladies. Last she had heard, the Sith were in the middle of a tumultuous leadership upheaval anyways. A small rancor auction was beneath their notice.
But for Mordeth, it was a prize she could not turn down. Not when she had heard two bull rancor were up for auction.
Bull rancor were not like their smaller Dathomiri cousins. They were larger, meaner, but just as loyal to their owners as the Dathomiri breed. From what Mordeth had read in the auction brochure, these bulls were young, their eyes blindfolded so that they could imprint on their new masters. Now, the only difficult was securing them. And since there were two, she had brought along Perla, another member of the Hutt Council.
Nor'baal and some of the other councilors were not fond of Perla. She had no clan, no family name. Yet she had managed to claim an influential place in the Hutt Cartel. That made her interesting to Mordeth. The prospect that an alliance between them could both give them power over Nor'baal in the Council and annoy the big Hutt families in general delighted her. As the two Hutts were carried towards the auction on separate litters, Mordeth fanned herself, considering all this. «Gee uba lee chalya paupe canta bai wa peekasa, Perla?» she asked. «Bimapa jeejee logna hoohah, see pacmhanaduee.» @Die Shize
