Another Protectorate mission to complete. This one was like most others. Get to a target planet, in this case Seren Tywyll, and try to make peaceful connections. Always a sinple concept, but the execution was always far more difficult than the idea. Xel hoped that this mission would be succesful, not only for the Protectorate, but for a bit of a confidence boost for his new crew member Jicelli.
As Xel's PCHF-3 heavy freighter came out of hyperspace, Seren Tywyll came into view. It looked nice enough. If all went well, that very planet would be under Protectorate control. Beside his ship came the Picketing-Class Corvette that Xel had asked for. It carried its standard operation crew, along with 50 armed Protectorate soldiers. If things went south, then those troops would have to be fully deployed and negotiations would be over. Xel didn't want it to have to come to that. As they came down to the planet's surface, Xel deployed his landing gear and touched down on a landing pad. Beside his frieghter was the Protectorate corvette. Xel unstrapped himself from his seat and went down to the main exit of the ship. He pressed a button on a panel beside the door and it opened, allowing a ramp to go down to the floor below the ship. He exited and pressed another button on his way out, closing the door behind his Pantoran partner. He had his usual black set on. Turtle-neck, cargo pants, and boots. On his back was his trusty FRAB blaster rifle, and in his right cargo pant pocket lied his BP01 blaster pistol. Two Protectorate soldiers exited the corvette and came to where Xel and Jicelli were. Xel then turned to Jicelli with a slight smile on his face.
"You ready for your first mission, Jice?"
