Re: The Expeditionary Library

We would need to gather a group of knowledgeable people to serve as the crew. Do you know of such people?

No I don't. Why do you think I haven't tried already? That part is going to have to be up to you.

Re: The Expeditionary Library

I'll see what I can do about that. I'm sure some people in my unit will be able to help us out.

Excellent. We'll need to move quickly if we're going to take the Korido before it gets fully crewed.

No, I don't have a specific date, but it's almost stocked now, so it will be soon.

Re: The Expeditionary Library

Alright, how many people do we need? 50-100? Or is it much higher than that?

Re: The Expeditionary Library

From what I've heard, many of the systems are automated, so we shouldn't need more than a 200 member crew, which is still extremely small for the size of the ship we'll be stealing.

Re: The Expeditionary Library

Hmmm... We can meet at the spaceport after you've found all the necessary personnel, I have a ship that can ferry the insertion team up to the Korido undetected, not all 200 of course, but enough to gain control of the ship, and the rest can come in shifts, it'll take about four trips to get everyone there.

Re: The Expeditionary Library

Got it. I'll see you then. It shouldn't be too hard to convince some of my men to go along with it.

Right, call me when you're ready.

*Kress sits back in his chair as Fraaze gets up and leaves, thinking over everything that he had just learned. He smiled slightly, that had been a very productive meeting. he had found proof of the dissenters existence and even their plan. This mission was going better than he had hoped.

Several hours later, Kress gets up and leaves the library.*

*Stern walks in, his commanders were already in the back rooms, star charts and records sprawled out on the table, the security cameras unplugged*

Alright, lets get to work

*The Ice Barge lands outside the library entrance and lowers its ramp. The 2nd Company rushes inside the Library. They begin pulling crates from the back store room and moving them into the aisles to stack all the books and files into. Captain Jorahn figured it was better to remove all knowledge from the library, then to remove small parts. The Libraries perfect upkeep and neat arrangement meant that it wouldn't take long for 100 men to 'archive' everything*

*The library shelves stand empty. The 2nd Company loads the 80 crates, containing the knowledge of the Chiss people into the Ice Barge, They then file in as Captain Jorahn finishes downloading the library database, He then activates a whipe of the system as he exits the Library and enters the Ice Barge, which raises the ramp and flies off towards Ac'siel*

Re: The Expeditionary Library

*The Library was silent, its many bookshelves bathed in a dull blue light cast by the sheets of ever-frozen ice. There were very few visitors to the library who weren't there because they were supposed to be - librarians, technicians, the occasional CEDF cadet brushing up for his next exam - Dragg'rim'muro preferred it this way. He was comfortable in the cold silence; he was used to isolation.

Dragg'rim'muro, known to most by his core name Grimm, was no ordinary Chiss. Csilla often boasts that over 90% of their population has given over a year of military service - Grimm was part of the 10% minority. It was true that he had enlisted in the CEDF, and it was true that he had gone through basic training, but Grimm didn't last even a year in the field. While fighting with the Fleet, Grimm fell victim to a then unknown disease, later proved to be nonlethal. Nevertheless, Grimm was released from duty and sent back to Csilla to recover. He never returned.

With a sigh, Grimm put the volume he was reading back on the table, finding himself unable to concentrate. Thias was one of his favorite authors, yes, but the weight of his own life story had recently taken its toll on the young Chiss. He recalled memories of the most famous Chiss of them all - the exiled Grand Admiral Thrawn. While most Chiss looked upon Thrawn as a sore memory, Grimm viewed him as something of a tragic hero. The atrocities that he committed near the end of his career in the Empire were due only to the CEDF's own ignorance at what a military genius Thrawn really was. Truly, Grimm viewed him as someone to aspire to be.

These thoughts of a legendary legacy could only be gained through military experience; something Grimm had just recently come to realize. This is why for the past few months, he had been drawn to the tomes of long dead Chiss strategists and heads-of-state. While all of them each contributed something of their own to Chiss society, there was one common thread that connected them all - they were each extremely well known in the ranks of the CEDF. If Grimm was to have any sort of legacy himself, he would need to regain his military honor. And at 22 years of age, there wasn't much time left before he was past his fighting prime.

Grimm slowly rose from his seat, shelving Thias' On the Lehon Campaign and its Aftermath. As he did so, the Chiss couldn't help but catch a glimpse of his reflection on the smooth, icy bookshelf. Taking in a breath, Grimm straightened himself up, brushed off his old uniform, and ran a quick hand through his pitch black hair. Nodding to himself, he turned around, heading towards the CEDF base. If one was looking, they could have sworn that there was a hint of a smirk framing his lips.*
