Sweat pours down the man's face, "I could be your guy on the inside, let you know who arrives when and what they say when they get here, that's worth my life right?"

The man shrugs "Sorry never heard of you. The other Hutt agent I spoke to was useless but what the hell, maybe I'll have better luck with you. I want off of this planet. You got a ship that can run that blockade?"
Noss steeples his hands in front of his face, nodding sqeculatively ,"Hmmm, perhaps." he says menacingly, "Your friend...we'd need to know what he knows...."

The man licks his lips nervously, "I'll find out whatever you guys need. I don't care about CSA or Hutts or my old boss. It's just a job for me, not worth my life!"

The man waits expectantly as the silence extends for far too many minutes. "I toldja evrythin' I know, please let me help you! Please?"

Cat got yer togue?" teh man asks.
Taras stares down at the man, pondering the ups and downs of what he's suggested. On the one hand, it could be dangerous leaving behind someone who knows of their presence, even if he seems completely cowed and willing to serve them. On the other, the man didn't know all that much, didn't know who they truly were, and would probably be incapable of telling anyone more information than "there are some scary bounty hunter types around."
Finally, the Sith opens his mind to the Force for a moment, hoping to see if the man will immediately cause trouble.
If it doesn't seem likely the man will immediately do anything foolish or troublesome, Taras sighs and steps forward. "You've done well enough, I suppose. Just don't do anything stupid." With that, he punches the man across the face, knocking him unconscious. "Let's drop him and be done with this. We should keep looking, or find our comrade."
"If I did, or if I knew of one, it would be quite the valuable piece of information. Tell me, who might you be, and which Hutt might you be referring to?"
Cardis does his best to control his reaction as the conversation from the end of the bar drifts down towards him. Lightsabers and a heist on the CSA Headquarters? I know it wasn't Sith, and Jedi typically don't commit crimes, but what if the Imperial Knights are here as well? We did find that other ship in the jungle..
It was all the more imperative that they find the Hutt and finish him off.
Praxis nods, concentrating. "Yeah. Regroup." he says, clearing his throat.

Noss nods as Taras sends the man into unconsciousness, "That'll do. " he says rising up to his full height.
Adjusting the unfamiliar weight of the blaster at this hip, he looks to his companions, "Yes, let's see if we can track down Cardis, see what's he learnt."

The group drops the man near the dig site and brings the Infiltrator back up into the atmosphere of Tel Bollin.

"Valuable indeed, I am a guy that's got lots of creds but they'll do me no good dead on this backwater mining planet. How many Hutts do you think are here?" He grins in response seeming to enjoy the banter with you.
"Well, if I did know a way past the blockade, and if you did know where I could find a certain Hutt, then I might be inclined to share any hypothetical means of getting off the planet. Of course, if you don't know where I could find that certain Hutt, we'd have to part ways. I don't believe I caught your name?"
Endregaard - Tel Bollin -- Afternoon Day 3 - North Side the Fallen Warrior
"Funny, I didn't catch your name either... Not sure where the Hutt is to be honest. One of his cronies might know though. This place is full of scoundrels, what good faith offer can you give to me that you won't just ditch me when you get what you want? Hypothetically of course".
"All right, let's go collect Cardis and see what he's discovered." Noss says, settling into the pilot's chair.
He sets a sharp vector into the atmosphere, engaging the cloaking device as the Infiltrator clears the ground.
He then points the ship towards Tel Bollin and makes best speed.
Praxis relaxes once they're back in the ship, his concentration mostly spent on keeping them out of sight. He coughs, clearing his lungs. "I already hate this planet. Let's be done with this and move on."

You sweep from the north to the south near to Tel Bollin. You try to comm to Cardis but he must have it turned off at the moment...
Noss sweeps the cloaked Sith vessel in close to Tel Bollin, cutting in and out of the cloud cover, monitoring thier communication band for Cardis' signal.
"Come on, Cardis. Get your comm on , you fool." Noss spits, as he banks around a column of clouds, eyes on the sensors for enemy vessels.

Once again you evade enemy detection.
"We should find somewhere to set down." Praxis suggests, squinting out the cockpit. "Busy here. Makes me on edge."
-Posted with Wayfinder
"Somewhere near the city, but not too close, I think. Keep checking for him every few minutes, on and off to avoid detection." Taras frowns at the lack of contact with their teammate, but there isn't much to be done at the moment.
Cardis offers a little half-smirk at the man's intentionally forgetting his name, even though he'd told him. He says, "Well, on a world like this, there aren't many assurances I can give you that I won't just ditch you. I would just say that I don't typically work alone, and I never mind having some help - unless that help decides betrayal is the best course of action."
Endregaard - Tel Bollin -- Afternoon Day 3 - North Side the Fallen Warrior
The man grins, "I am not in the betrayal business. So you want the Hutt eh? I'll bring you to the man who may be able to find the Hutt and you let me tag along until we're off of this planet. If you give me a lift to Nar Shadda I can pay you as well. Deal?"
Considering for a moment, Cardis, says, "Deal, but I need to know what to call you. Your name would be appreciated, but I'll settle for an alias."
Endregaard - Tel Bollin -- Afternoon Day 3 - North Side the Fallen Warrior
He smiles, "You can call me Biggs. Now that we have that settled, the agent of the Hutt is right over... oh crap. He left!"
Biggs is pointing to the spot where you noticed the large figure in the makeshift cloak earlier upon your arrival.
"If this is how our partnership is going to start, I might have to rethink it. Any clue where he went, or where we can find another agent?"
Endregaard - Tel Bollin -- Afternoon Day 3 - North Side the Fallen Warrior
Biggs gives you a sheepish grin, "No, I do not but I know he'll be here tomorrow. Don't know any other agents, well, I thought you might be. I do have a place we can hold up until tomorrow though..."
Though suspicious, Cardis says, "Alright, then. Why don't we head there?"
Endregaard - Day 3 - Evening - Somewhere North of Tel Bollin
You attempt to comm Cardis yet again, this time success!
As you settle down in the hidey hole that Biggs has brought you to, you notice your comm blinking, you s~** it off earlier for stealth purposes but it seems your allies need to get a hold of you...
"Well, maybe he's dead?" Praxis asks as they stare at the comm panel yet again.
"Hold on. I had some other people poke around to try and find the Hutt for me. This might be them."
Answering his comlink, Cardis says, "Kadavo Spectre here. Did you find the Hutt?"
"Spectre, it's Dashwind. Negative on finding the Hutt, but we got some other information. Figured it would be good to regroup. Where can we find you?"
Endregaard - Day 3 - Evening - Somewhere North of Tel Bollin
"Where are these guys? If they are not close it is best not to move bu night as the swoop gangs would be on just the two of us pretty quick", Biggs states.
"Negative. Stay sheltered - we don't want to draw the attention of the swoop gangs that roam the streets at night. I've found someone with a possible lead. Meet me at the Fallen Warrior tomorrow. We'll settle up there."
Taras blows his breath out slowly, then nods and opens the comms again. "Alright. Hunker down, Spectre. We'll find you tomorrow."
When the comms close, he removes his helmet and looks to Praxis and Noss. "Looks like we're setting down for the night. Let's find somewhere a little ways off and get some rest. I assume you can both enter trance?"
Praxis nods, irritated that they're spending ANOTHER night just waiting. Still, there was progress so he doesn't give anyone trouble. He'll rest up the night in a trance.
Noss drops his feet down from where they'd been propped, up on the control console, "Well, at least he's still alive....there's that."
With that he saunters out of the cockpit and removes himself to the small cargo area.
There he begins a rigorous series of exercise forms with this lightsabers, working out a few kinks. He hopes that there will be occasion to use them soon, he hasn't struck down an adversary in some time....and it was beginning to grate on him.
After, he retreats to his room to sit ,close his eyes and slip into an alert but restful trance.
