The two were eating breakfast in a large, brightly lit room within [I]The Gamechanger[/i] that looked out over the skies of Kintan. Leonard and Ken were discussing the message sent to the latter some hours ago; the former was strangely excited to meet the Believer agent.

"People who love bringing other people down just like me? Why wouldn't I be pleased to hear from them? After all, we're enemies of the Hutts together; I must have marked myself for death when I took over Kintan," Leonard was saying as he sipped fine wines while eating finely roasted waterfowl. "Ken, I and the Believers are [i]so[/i] going to work well with each other, particularly as, again, we like setting things on fire. I mean, [i]Cinder[/i] is the name of your leader, right?" 

Ken nods. "I see you're not mad at me bringing in the wider Beleivers network without your permission."

"Mad?!" Leonard was incredulous, "Please, I need allies right now, especially as the Nikto are still unsure as to whether we can [i]keep[/i] them free. That and rebuilding the Fortress of Kha'ris is taking more time than I thought; my fault for wanting to install a shield generator and an Ion Cannon. There's also the fact that I need more ships; the Dreadnought and Carrier we captured in this expedition wouldn't be enough."

Ken's reply was, "What about repairing the Lancer Frigates? Their anti-starfighter function would be of good use in the future, I think."

Leonard nods. "The Lancers are already being repaired by droid workers from this factory ship; they'll be largely staffed by droids and droid brains. Word has also been sent to Dandoran that any mercenaries who want to join are welcome. So, as you can see, I [i]am[/i] preparing a defense..."
