FolarisHey. Why don't you hold up a minute? I'm Folaris. I think you and I should have a private chat.VoidhoundYou want to talk, talk fast.Don't worry. It will only take a second. There's a rumor going around that Black Sun's about to clean house. Snitches, rival gang leaders - they're all gonna be dead meat. There's a list of these unfortunate individuals sitting on their computers. I need those names.MeteorSounds to me like you're in law enforcement.FolarisLet's just say I'm interested in what's best for the people of Coruscant.Barsen'thorYou seem to know an awful lot.FolarisAnonymous sources, who need to stay that way. I can slice into Black Sun's computers and get the hit list, but they'll be able to trace me. So, while I'm slicing in, I need someone to break into the Black Sun hideout and shut down their tracing equipment. Think you can do that?VoidhoundDo you really want to put your life in our hands to get this list?FolarisDon't have much choice, do I? I need that list, and I need it yesterday. Time to make this happen. All right... go! Go!
FolarisWell, since I haven't been visited by any large, angry Black Sun thugs, I take it you got everything taken care of?MeteorOf course it's taken care of.Whew... all right, that's great news. What a relief. Here - something for your trouble. I can't thank you enough for your help. Ha... you know, it's funny. There are people who would pay a frigate-load of credits for this list.MeteorThat list should be going to your superiors!FolarisMaybe so. But they don't pay me nearly enough for the risks I take down here everyday.Hero of TythonSo you had an ulterior motive all along.No, it's nothing like that. I was just thinking, it'd be nice to make a little something extra, wouldn't it?Barsen'thorIf you sell the list, you'll be exposed as the thief.FolarisMaybe, maybe not. There are ways to avoid that kind of attention.MeteorSensitive intel like that could cause havoc in the wrong hands.FolarisIf the list goes public, everyone on it would be warned - and we'd make a tidy profit. I know a guy, Nizkif. He's an "information broker." Nizkif hangs out at the Dealer's Den, a cantina in the old Galactic Market.Hero of TythonThat list should be used to save lives.FolarisYou just don't give in, do you? Ah, you're right, I shouldn't be looking for a quick profit. I'll make sure the list ends up in the right hands. Lives are more important than credits anyhow. See you around, then. Thanks again for all your help.
criminal syndicate was planning to purge several members - informants and rival gang leaders - it suspected of undermining its operations. Folaris wanted access to that list because she saw an opportunity in selling the list - if the names went public, the targeted persons would possibly be warned and Folaris would be able to supplement her income. She was well acquainted with an Advozse
, who made his business by warning people that they were in danger, and then selling them information about what the danger was.She was an experienced slicer and knew that she could easily break into the computers of Black Sun and retrieve the list of targeted persons, but she needed to be able to prevent Black Sun from tracing her. Fortunately for her, she met
on a mission in the Gangland sector and, posing as an agent of undisclosed law enforcement agency, asked them to help her disable Black Sun's tracking equipment for the time while she was stealing the list to warn those on the list of impending danger.Believing in her story, the operatives did so and returned to Folaris, who had been able to retrieve the list. Fearing that it would be risky to travel with the list from Black Sun territory to Migrant Merchants
' controlled Old Republic Market sector, and it would be a safer bet if the operatives, for a small fee, brought the list to a broker who would simply transfer her share back to her. Folaris suggested to the operatives that a good amount of money could be made from selling the list to an information broker at the Dealer's Den cantina in the Old Republic Market, but she couldn't go herself because she was well known at the cantina.However, the operatives rejected her offer, saying to Folaris that selling the list would cause more harm than good, and she should turn the names over to her superiors.
