"Makes things easier."

"Yeah. Especially for hiding them; I'm already pretty practiced at roping them into Force stuff I'm doing."

"Right. So if you can find a couple volunteers, we should be ready."

"Cool."

She heads off to do that, then, eventually filtering down to two of her girls - Sharp and Charge, both veterans with a good record and knowledge of bases on this design. 

Then with the full team assembled, they can have a quick briefing to make sure everyone's on the same page before coordinating their departure with the other strikes.

Lily's jittery at the briefing, but she focuses well enough.

And they're off.

The base wouldn't have been easy to find at all without the Force. The system isn't used for much, at the end of a tiny spindle of a hyperspace route that branches off from a larger one running by a popular smuggler's port. The planet is inhabitable technically, with a dense and hot rainforest covering all but it's poles and a few thin bands around the planet where rain is rarer. The atmosphere is thick, prone to violent winds, and toxic to most species, though, and it's home to large predators and larger, angrier herbivores.

The base is built entirely underground, deep enough under deposits that can foul up sensors to make problems even if you know where to look. The only exits are near the bottom of narrow chasms that criss-cross much of the main continent, above the usual river lines but often outright submerged during storms.

It'll be really, really inconvenient, getting in, but... There's a possibility, one they can afford to take their time investigating a little as Lily and Anathema's efforts to hide them appear to stay strong. One of the exits appears to be abandoned, the keen eyes of one of Anathema's girls spotting where the heavy doors have been damaged and can no longer close. The path inside is likely sealed off, of course, but it gives Lily a good feeling. There's a clearing they can hide their ship in on the other side of the gorge, and currently the entrance isn't submerged - though that might change if the rain clouds they can see turn against them.

There'll be other ways out once they're inside.

Ellaita deftly skims under the radar to land them in the clearing.

"Should we do anything extra to hide the ship?"

"There's some camo netting in the cargo hold," she says, flipping switches to shut the ship down. "I'm turning all the power off."

"Okay."

She goes to get that and helps Charge cover the ship, while Anathema and Sharp scout toward the doors - Sharp wants to see them directly, apparently.

Ellaita finishes up, then goes to help.

Anathema checks for anything that might be a camera turned on this area - she doesn't think there's anything functioning - then heads back to Lily.

"Can you levitate people down and across the ravine and into the door?" she asks. "Our best bet otherwise is figuring out how to cross over up here, then rappelling down..."

Pause.

"I can, yeah."

"You sure?"

"I'm sure."

"Start this invasion off right."

She snickers. "Hopefully we won't get too much more ridiculousness happening."

Heh.

"Let's get going, then."

"Okay."

Who wants to be first across?

"I'll go."

Okay, so, stand where she can see the doors, focus...

And Ellaita floats up, hovers for a few moments while Lily checks her mental grip is secure...

Then Ellaita drifts smoothly and quickly over and down into the ravine, the odd bouyancy only fading when she's inside the doors, feet on the ground. 

Yeah, that's a bit trippy.

She checks to make sure the entrance is secure.

"Everything okay?" Lily calls down.

(The entrance looks secure, as far as she can tell.)

"Seems like," she calls back.
