Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night, after a last round of drinks at Jailbirds, an illustre group gathered in the IMC headquarters in Farpoint Valley for the briefing for the ore transport convoy from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion Station in the Ord Mantell system chartered by the Intergalactic Mining Company. Captain Ashen Katarna's X-4 class medium freighter "Crescent Raven" as well as the "TTC-Tencilia", a YT-2400 class light freighter were ready to make the trip.
Captain Katarna piloted his ship himself, assisted by seasoned pilot Jamayle Williams as well as noted peformers Clarissa Wrenchturner, Tal'Shiva and Nu'ro, who proved to be as apt at the controls of a ship cannon as on the dance floor. The "TTC-Tencilia" was flown by Caligulo with assistance from Falcun Nix, a veteran courier pilot.
Despite the substantial firepower the two ships carried they were attacked in the Naboo system near Sea of Veruna by first one, then another ARC-170. Both raiders were shot down, though the "TTC-Tencilia" suffered armor damage to the rear, and several plasma leaks as a result of enemy fire. Falcun suffered secondary burns when he repaired the conduits, but he enabled the convoy to forego repairs in the Naboo system and reach Ord Mantell without delay.
On the Nova Orion Station there the crews of the two ships allegedly got drunk celebrating the successful and lucrative trip.
IMC shares rose 1 % at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.
