Victoria was on edge. Simply put she didn't like having this many core folk on her ship. It made her jittery. She needed the money.

A glance at Sol told the hired gun to follow Ben. How he handled following the guy was up to his own discretion. Much like Shen, the captain had no desire to let someone go wanderin' about her ship, especially to the heart of it.


Todd, the suit, excused himself at this point. Victoria gave him a slight nod as he and his servant left. She wondered about the beefy overweight man. He was too clean, then again most core people were. If she hadn't already sent Sol to follow Ben, she would send him to follow Todd. Of course she couldn't have everyone of the guests followed, as much as she'd like to. Thankfully her regular cargo was clean. The shipment was through a long time friend of hers, and he always warned her when the stuff was hot. It would be a long few weeks anyway.
