The file would open up to display a small woman, bulked up by armour and muscle. She dresses all in the warrior black with an unmarked mask without etches, sharp claws array themselves on her knuckles. Esme Roi puts her hands at ease behind her back.

"Orbanat Corporation, built on ancestral lands and the centre of an ancient crime, where the Republic murdered the Celestial Emperor by the pool of reflection, an Orsian monument their factory stands on, polluting to this day. There they cemented the change of ages beneath Republic rule. There they sullied our land, but, this is ancient history.

Now, I suppose they've added trading with criminals to the list. The Orbanat Corporation have manufactured explosives, probe droids and speeders for the war effort, done in such numbers, that they have been allowed a certain amount of freedom from their responsibilities. The Empire benefits immensely from their support and several significant players would not see it gone or under new management. This means the direct road is unavailable to me, despite being a part of my sector. This corporation must remain and remain flying the banners that defend it... for now. That however does not mean we cannot use it, it does not mean we cannot hurt it.

From there we turn to Battle Group Tarima, we know their supply line to Equanus supports to it and therefore on this particular patrol, we will police it thoroughly, there is to be a lot of supply traffic we must go through. I desire your support as a boarding team, you will serve aboard the Terminus Class Destroyer, the Sotizi and support it in its duty to apprehend and thoroughly examine the vessels that pass through.

Upon discovery, of their supply-hauler, you will seize it in the name of the Empire and secure a particular package, denoted 'Special Package FM-45' aboard. The civilian workers aboard are not to be harmed, any armed resistance however is to be dealt with judiciously."

With that, the holo would flicker and fade from view, allowing the viewer to access the rest of the information provided.

Operational Report: The Equanus Patrol
Participating: Apprentice Rhysand Sekker, Acolyte Charace Vulker

Operation Primary objective: Intercept and board a cargo hauler belonging to the Orbanat Coporation.

Operation Secondary objectives: Find and secure package FM-45 and do so without killing or harming the crew of the vessel

Report:
Apprentice Sekker and Acolyte Charace boarded the Sotizi, second Terminus for strike group Tarimra and took position upon the bridge to monitor communications between the Sotizi and the vessels that the Terminus intercepted.

The first vessel intercepted was a private civilian vessel belonging to one Zytho Dowd, a citizen of Equanus, who was visiting family. A scan of the vessel revealed four passengers and no weapons with vessel registration checking out in Imperial records. Apprentice Sekker asked Acolyte Charace for their input and he recommended that the ship be allowed passage, Apprentice Sekker agreed and the ship was allowed on it’s way.

The second vessel intercepted was an old cargo hauler belonging to one Lina Van’dai, scans showed that the vessel contained two life forms however the clearance code that was given was twenty five years out of date. A review of the cargo manifest revealed that it was carrying agricultural materials from Orsus. The vessel was allowed to pass by Apprentice Sekker, but with an advisement to update their clearance codes.

After thirty minutes a third vessel arrived in system under the ownership of one Zig Cadan prime owner of a venture named ‘Sublime Silk’. A proper clearance code was provided however the vessel contained fifty individual lifeforms, which the owner claimed were his friends, while the cargo was clearly marked as textile supplies. Both Apprentice Sekker and Acolyte Charace suspected smuggling efforts were being undertaken, probably cheap slave labour, and a decision was made to board the vessel.

Upon boarding the vessel Apprentice Sekker and Acolyte Charace were met with a Zeltron identifying themselves as Zig Cadan. Apprentice Sekker immediately took control of the vessel and ordered a review of the manifest while ordering Acolyte Charace to secure Tenel the co-pilot of the ship. After securing the vessel, Apprentice Sekker determined that the smuggling going on was unrelated to the operation and the boarding party returned to the Sotizi. The vessel was allowed to carry on it’s journey though Apprentice Sekker ordered that the correct authorities be notified of the vessel’s activities.

The final vessel was a large cargo hauler under the ownership of the Orbanat Corporation, it was quickly decided to board despite no reference to the Cargo FM-45. The boarding party were met by the captain a Human named Sykar Smit and armed guards. Apprentice Sekker immediately seized the ship an act that caused some tension with the armed guards however Captian Smit decided not to attack two Sith purebloods while under the guns of a Terminus and surrendered the ship for the boarding parties inspection. Acolyte Charace conducted a brief inspection of the vessels cargo hold however was unable to find anything relating to FM-45.  Apprentice Sekker applied more pressure to the Captain and eventually they led the boarding party to where FM-45 was hidden amongst the rest of the cargo. Upon this discovery Apprentice Sekker ordered the Sotizi’s crew to secure the ship and hold the ship until further notice and the pair departed with primary objective complete.
