Then neither will Elleira. The lights of the city flash by beneath them as they travel to the Promenade, a city block elevated above the rest and somehow even glitzier.

"I'm in... bay D12."

"D35," Darth Pyktis says.

HK-24 clicks, and holds out a hand with a datachip.

She snorts, plucks it from the droids hand and offers it to Elleira. "Our home base."

She takes it.

"Then I'll see you there?"

"Indeed," she agrees with a smirk, and heads off with HK-24 following on her heels.

Elleira returns to her ship.

"Pirate!" she calls.

There's a loud clang and some muffled cursing. A minute later, Andronikos pokes his head out.

"Sith? You usually call first. We heading out?"

"Yes." She hands him the datacard. "This is our destination."

"Not back to Kaas? What'd you and the other one dig up here?"

"She's dead. That's the base of my new ally."

"...Maybe lead with that, next time. I'll- prep for takeoff, then."

"You do that. We'll be expected. Leave when we're ready." She- stalks is not quite the correct word- off to her quarters. She has a lot to sort through.

She has a while to sort through everything - Darth Pyktis' base isn't close to Nar Shaddaa.

Well enough. When they get there, she feels herself ready to face what comes next.

"Take us in."

"You got it."

There's a docking area, with two other ships already there, and no-one makes any attempt to contact them while they're landing.

"Quiet place."

"Let's hope it stays that way. Stay with the ship, for now."

She debarks alone.

There's a door into the main complex, and there's someone leaning against the frame of it, watching.

Elleira draws up short.

"Hello."

"Hello. Ira said we were going to have a guest."

"That would be me."

She reaches out subtly with her senses, trying to get a feel for the stranger's power.

Ey's definitely a Force-user, although not obviously powerful.

"C'mon then. I expect she'll want to know you're here."

"After you."

That gets a smile that has too many teeth. "And there was me thinking it was the hostly thing to let the guest go first." Ey leads the way.

"It's not as though I know my way around." Or is willing to trust her new patron's other allies that far, in this place.
