Glory in Pride strutted its way through the galaxy, through its infinite, or finite depending on whether the one looking at it was a pessimist or optimist, space. Every star that flew by he wanted to name, to remember its existence. To remember how little he mattered in the way of the galaxy as a living, sentient being. Nicolo lowered his head then, staring at the console board and then at his hands, which maneuvered the yoke of the ship in steady, easy flight. He was approaching Taris, finally.
It had been a long time coming, but Nicolo Salvatorelli had finally discovered the soon-to-be whereabouts of Johann Dontoras. It had been close to a year in searching for his target, his thirty-third birthday so close to the horizon that he could hit it with a throwing knife.
The big luxury cruiser landed down on the planet where he'd finally find the man he already knew so much about. His father, his grandfather, they had spoke of the man as the man who had finally realized their dreams, and was strong enough and smart enough to pull them off. Nicolo, however, was doubtful that Johann was as messiah-esque as the two had painted him out to be. But he was hard to find, the trained assassin gave the man that. From Talus to Zeltros all the way back to Corellia and Kamino. On Tatooine he had been close, very, very close. On Apatros, not so much. But finally, finally he had him.
As Nicolo navigated his way through the upper levels of Taris, he took in his surroundings. Tall buildings like none he had seen before. Corellia had been impressive, but Coronet was not a planet-wide city. An appropriate setting for his meeting with the assassin extraordinaire, the savior of the people as his father Antonio and his grandfather Milan had so hoped.
The man's shuttle touched down on the surface, and he took in the man's style of dress. It was the first time Nicolo had seen him in person, finally giving him the chance to take in the dress that was so similar to his own. If a bit more...humble. Some would say even a tad more intimidating.
From the touchdown of Johann's shuttle, Nicolo was on his tail.
