The team gathers around the vessel. In moments the airlock opens.A mammalian figure steps out, dressed in leather and sporting fancy weapons.Leppie: SKEEEEEE Hello foreign visitor! We do not recognize the markings on your vessel, where do you come from?
Visitor: Salutations scientists! I am Free Trader Beowulf.
Beowulf: I see you're constructing some sort of operation here. Listen--I think I can benefit you guys, if you scratch my back first, see what I mean?
Beowulf: Up in my shuttle there's a barrel of super caustic chemicals used by various young industries here on Buddhana. Don't ask any questions! The deal is you run them into the settlement 12 km [approximately 3 turns] south of here. The population is 60, they have only a constable and militia for defense--no matter though! There's a drop point where you can leave the barrel. In and out.
Leppie blinks.Free Trader Beowulf directs his attention to Josef.Beowulf: I see your lovely weapon sir! I have a powerful cannon myself, and a ray pistol too.
Beowulf: Not to mention my friends in orbit. That isn't a threat--just an idea of what I can do for you if you help me out.
