While that wasn't welcome news, it didn't alter Lyla's plans or position a jot. They still had to get the cruk out of here without really paying anything to his Highest Exalted Ruler. She made a frantic "get the cruk out of here" motion to Klyn while she answered 'Aha. You know, I gotta say, Slythor – you are a terrible businessman.' she remarked dryly, glad to get that off her tails. And to skip the damn title. Then she got to the rest of it. 'Alright, well, do you still want to hear our valuable information? You ready? Okay. We destroyed the Scourge hideout and a bunch of their ships. They're out of business and won't be paying you back for that gravity well generator. In fact, Chalmer might come looking here, and he won't be happy to hear how generous you were to us. And, if not him, it'll be Radell, or the Imperials, or the pirate fleet that Chalmer just insulted. So, unless you pack up and run now, your business is going down the black hole. Just a little friendly advice.' Then she added, as if an afterthought, 'And you will be paying out your hopper crews, won't you? Maybe danger money for pirate fighting?'
OOC: The goal is to make Slythor and/or the hopper pilots lose their nerve and give up on us while they have more serious things to worry about.
