Ziost - Crown of the Sith Empire

Sylvain arrived at the bar he had been told to arrive at and found a booth near the back and out of the way. He pulled up his datapad and looked through some data after ordering a drink.

“You will forgive me if we keep the meeting brief,” she said as she took a seat.

“I am a busy woman.”

"Excellent. Right to business then."

He asked, "Malgus and the Eagle. Connected through Unda Nuwazi. Is this by chance or is there something behind it?"

She did not answer right away, she pulled out her communicator and tapped away and then said, “Lady Nuwazi of House Nuwazi, her father is a powerful Moff in service to Darth Malgus and her mother is a sector governor.”

“Connections to Darth Malgus are obvious, not so to the Eagle,” she recalled.

She tapped at the communicator and added, “You believe the Eagle is working with Darth Malgus then?”

"It appears to be the conjecture of a woman I think to be tied to Imperial Intelligence. I think it much more likely that it is Intelligence that is working with the Eagle... but if your hack was able to discover otherwise, I would like to know." He replied.

“Darth Malgus is not clean in this affair but we agree your line of thinking, the Eagle is a product of Imperial Intelligence or at least forces and entities aligned with the Imperial Intelligence,” she responded.

He nodded, "Alright... next... the plague. From what I can tell Malgus has used the existence of the plague to motivate individuals like myself to divert resources to he and his allies. This seems more like a calculated move based on conditions as they are... but could also implicate him in its creation and dissemination. What are the origins of the plague as best you know? This another foil in a strategy of Imperial Intelligence?"

“The plague we believe came from Darth Malgus, it seems to have been a long-term plan to divert resources to his supporters, we are unsure of hen Imperial Intelligence got involved but we suspect agents working for Imperial Intelligence or rogue elements of that organization aiding Darth Malgus for several months now ever since the Emperor’s return,” she responded.

“It is possible elements of Intelligence have no idea they are aiding Malgus, but who would be directing them?”

"Malgus has known ties with Hoshi... but she is not as much of an insider into Public Security and Intelligence as others. Jadus seems a possible candidate... but knowing what he is thinking is next to impossible. Baras too... Whoever it is... They seem to be in favor of a bit of regicide in the near future."

"We guess the next few days will be interesting, and we shall leave you to it," she responded.

"We may not meet gain and if so, it has not been unpleasant working with you."

He nodded, "Transmitting the cure and any intel you have on the mole within Public Security would be greatly appreciated."

He bowed his head, "I hope our interests may once again align someday."
