Nar Shaddaa

((with permission from the Neko))

Z sighed, he had been hoping to get by the police line and have a look at the scene of the crime. Naveera might like a little information on that front, and he owed her a bit of a favor. Taking a step back, he tried to see if there was any familiar faces able to get inside.

Maybe he could chat with them later.

One approached him after being pushed away by the guards.

"Apparently, they don't want my credits." he chuckled as he came closer. "What is Nar Shaddaa coming to?"

Another approached the duo of men, she was slender, beautiful in every way, with a unique aroma that inebriated those around her. A small lightsaber blade hilt hang on her side, so it could be assumed that she was a force sensitive user of the force.

"Can you believe that they didn't even know about me? They wouldn't allow me in... what type of Hutt guards are they, anyway?"

"I could hazard a few guesses Galen, but that's all they would be." He said offering the other man a smile. His eyes turning to regard the lovely creature that approached them a moment later.

"The strangest type I've ever met Madam." He replied offering her a tip of a hat in greeting. "After all any proper man keeps an ear open for rumors about a lady as lovely as you."

"And, only a fool would deny you without proper consideration." the other man added with a smile.

Niriti swayed her way in between the two men, first directing a look to one, and then to the other, a temptress gaze that studied their anatomy at a quick glance. "Well at least the company is quite an appropriate one, maybe much better than what I would had found inside anyway." She added with a little bite to her lower lip side.

So this was Niriti, her file simply hadn't done her any justice. "I'd hope so." He replied with a teasing smile. "If Galen and I couldn't out do those inside, well I wouldn't know what to do."

"But my manners, I'm Zanebry Varliss, and my companion here is Galen Sol. I hate to be forward, but I heard that a truly enchanting woman had arrived with the Empire's contingent. Would I be right in assuming that is you?"

"Better things to see out here, anyway." he nodded, looking the woman over. "Enchanting does seem like an appropriate description."

Niriti rested her hand casually on her revealed hip, since her long black dress was transparent in most of her abdomen. When she understood that they had seen her body, the sith allowed her breath to exhale softly. "Enchanting? Is that what they are saying about me? Could be..." she said more to herself than answering the question. "I would say I'm more of an alluring spirit." She concluded towards Zanebry.

"So what brings you to men to a place like Nar Shaddaa?" She questioned as she emphasized men with implicit fascination.

"Alluring." He repeated the word as if tasting it. "I think that does fit you quite well Madam." His lips curled into a charming smile. "While, I can't speak for Galen, I'm here mostly to experience life, and make a few credits along the way."

"I drink, smoke, dance, and...." He trailed off for a moment, a playful smile touching his lips. "Do many other things. Waking each day to experience the next."

"I do wonder Madam, if we could be graced with your name?"

"That sounds fairly accurate." Galen nodded at Zane's answer. "Life should be enjoyed to its fullest."

"I am Niriti." She added in her airy voice. "I have no last name, I have no family to have remembered it, for I was born in Taris and my parents died in it's destruction." She let her words sink into the two gentlemen before continuing with her appealing voice. "I have lost much, and know that all can be undone in a minute, in a second, so I too believe in experiencing life to its fullest."

"A pleasure to make your acquaintance Niriti." He offered with a small smile. "And you have my condolences for your loss."

"It does seem for whatever reason, we all share a similar view on things. An interesting coincidence I think."

"A nice one." Galen agreed. "Though the setting of our encounter could have been better."

"The Force has so decided it to be, that we meet in this way, or had not ever meet before. Now what do you men think of this peace setting from the Hutt? Do you think it might work out?" She herself was a bit skeptic about reaching a peace with the Republic, and her interest where actually another in the planet.

She was beautiful, but politics was a sure fire was to kill Z's mood, it was about as stimulating as Bantha droppings after all. "Truthfully, I don't give it much thought at all."

"I don't have any say in it, and if it happens it's likely to be broken soon enough."

"People will always find reasons to fight." Galen shrugged. "If they can find some measure of peace, that's great. But, I'm not concerned by it either way. There are much better subjects to focus on."

"You know Galen I believe you are right." His eyes moved from his friend to Niriti. "Like this lovely woman before us, and the reason why he haven't ventured into a nearby bar, to buy her a drink."

"If she'd be willing to accept?"

"A drink? With two handsome men?" She looked from one to the other, and swayed her hand from one's chest to the others with the other hand. "I hope at least you guys bring me to a decent place. I am a proper woman after all." She added as she moved away with a hypnotic move of her waist on the direction of the nearby drinking places.

"Any cantina will improve greatly, simply with your presence my dear." Galen smiled. "But, Zanebry and I can recommend a place or two, until you find satisfaction."

"I will make you keep your word, Galen dearest. And you must know that I am a very demanding woman, so satisfaction might take time."

"Time is something we have plenty of my dear." Z replied as he stepped alongside her, stealing a march on Galen and offering Niriti his arm so he could lead the way. "Could I ask if you have a preferred type of drink? Most places here have a specialty, and it will help us come to a decision."

Niriti takes the arm of Zanebry as he guides her into the district. "You seem to know your way around here." She said with a giggle. "I don't mind any type, as long as it's strong and intense." She added allowing the second sense of the words seep into the man.

"Galen can confirm, I've been around these parts for a while." He glanced at the other man and offered him a smile. Looking back towards the beautiful woman on his arm he smiled. "I do believe I know just the place to get both of those things." He dipped his head towards a building ahead of them on the left.

"The opal, most of the drinks are fairly normal, but some are mixed with certain stimulants, in case you're wanting a drink to knock your socks off. Mind you Galen might have a better suggestion."

"The Opal is good." he nodded. "Good stock, pleasant atmosphere and privacy. We can indulge ourselves and learn more about each other."
