The Cosmatanic Steppes was a layer of mantle suspended above a gas giant with three suns in the Outer Rim. It was a popular destination for archeologists, though its bars were the frequent destination of smugglers and other reprobates. The Starbird was parked just outside the main village. Greybok had decided to use its main hold for the war council he had called. Drinks from the local bar had been brought on board to serve his guests, which consisted of fellow members of the Alliance and the Mandalorians who currently held an outpost on Kashyyyk.
His plan was simple. Secure the aid of the Mandalorians in taking back his homeworld. Surely they, whose homeworld was, until recently, under Imperial jurisdiction, would understand his plight and dilemma. In exchange, he planned to offer them joint-control over Kashyyyk when the Trandoshan slavers that currently held it were finally put down. The Wookiees needed all the help they could get in the coming wars against the Empire, and the Galactic Alliance needed to keep its bond with the Mandalorians strong, especially now that they had a new leader — this so-called Manda'lor — to guide them forward.
Twobee was present and was bustling about the Starbird's main hold with a tray of drinks for their guests. "Welcome aboard," the droid said, feigning politeness when Greybok well-knew she was the rudest droid alive. "Please take a drink and gather 'round. His High Harriness, the captain of this vessel, will call the meeting to order shortly. Please forgive the stench!"
Greybok took the opportunity to switch on the holoprojector and bring up a large holographic representation of Kashyyyk. His home. How he longed to free her. The Wookiees living there had been in bondage for far too long. Trandoshans sold them to the Empire, as he had once been. But, with any luck, this offensive would bring an end to all of that and Kashyyyk would be free to join the Alliance and the Mandalorians in open opposition to the Empire.
Calling the meeting to order, Greybok began to bark and purr in Shyriiwook while Twobee translated for him. "Greetings, everyone! I am 2B-83, translator for this hairy oaf you see behind me, and this is Greybok — a general in the fight against the Empire. The holographic sphere you see before you is Kashyyyk, the homeworld of other hairy oafs. Can you imagine the smell?" Greybok barked a warning and Twobee, mildly annoyed, continued on script. "Plain and simply: we are liberating Kashyyyk. For too long, the Trandoshans have been allowed to enslave Wookiees and sell them to the Empire as slave laborers. We are ending that." Greybok added a loud roar, and Twobee added in Basic, "Violently. We have come to ask for your support in this matter." Greybok grunted a few times, to which Twobee admonished him, "Not now, Greybok, we have to give them a chance to answer first!" The droid turned back to the assembly. "What say you to this?" @Lucid, @Sreeya, @Rom, @Zay, @Killa Ree
