Discord and Sickle [TAZ-SCRA]

[Sabru]

Skarsi strokes his beard in thought, listening to Warner outlining the coalition's plan. He leans over and whispers something to Fith, who nods.

"The system plan is of no concern to me, as the Fez is sufficiently far from any inhabited stations and planets. What i may be able to assist with is the pacification planetside." Skarsi says, sipping at some vodka. "Fith..." he says, gesturing as his aide puts a device in the center of the table. A few seconds later, a holographic representation of an island appears on the table. "Glebe Island, as it is listed on the bretonian charts. My territory, we call it the Aett. The most secure piece of real estate on Canaria." he says, gesturing around the display. "I assume that having a base camp on the surface would make things easier on your ground forces."

Skarsi picks out a small area of the island, and the hologram responds by zooming in. "This is an auxiliary barracks depot on the northern coast. It would suit your needs very well, if you wish to take up my offer. Accommodation for up to 500, secure landing pads and hangars for everything up to medium sized gunboats, including your fine 'Storm'" assault craft.

"On that datapad is the co-ordinates to the depot along with IFF codes that will allow your ships passage through the Aett's sentry net. If you deem so, i can also have other facilities made available around the island. Perfect base camps for your troops." Skarsi has another drink of Vodka

"Sound interesting? i'm sure you are wondering why i would offer assistance like this. Well, lets just say i like to help my friends, and the Coalition are great friends. I'm also open to giving the Mollys access as well, but it may be better to offer it through the coalition. I dont want my name to be too known in connection with your plans."

Skarsi sits back, the chair creaking from the weight of his armor, as Fith continues on."There is one other thing we would like to broach, but it is only a preliminary thought. Your 'Storm' assault craft are very interesting. If it is possible, Pope Skarsi would like to acquire one for testing and examination. We understand that the power generation unit is not very compatible with most technology, but the available power would be suitable for the purposes we require."The Discordians wait for a reply.
