    Tarkos Sund
    Listen here, all you blaster-wielding frontier fighters! Sund Technologies is the best provider of wartime technology the Republic has. Now, I'll tell ya, there are some very violent creatures out there - rakghouls, nexu- I have the injuries to prove it. But when there's work to be done and credits to be made, Sund Tech doesn't rest, and neither should you. What I am offering is a high-paying technological recovery operation that will revolutionize the Republic's work here on Taris.
    Voidhound
    It's good to be dedicated to your work, but this seems like a strange place to look.
    Hero of Tython
    What kind of technology are you researching here on Taris?
    Oh, the usual - the kind that makes me filthy and disgustingly rich. No, no, I'm kidding.
    Voidhound
    Trust me - you'll be lucky if you dig up a rusty can opener in this dump.
    Tarkos Sund
    Rusty can opener? That's a good one. I'll have to remember that one.
    Meteor
    This is no place for civilians.
    Tarkos Sund
    I'm no ordinary civilian. I'm a businessman, a man of the galaxy. And, if I may say so, a brilliant - and handsome - inventor.
    Barsen'thor
    In other words, you're a profiteer.
    Tarkos Sund
    Like that's a bad thing? People expect companies to be profitable, but a person who profits is called a profiteer. I happen to know that three hundred years ago some enterprising swoop racers got their hands on a revolutionary engine accelerator. And I thought, here's the Republic struggling to reclaim Taris because of bad conditions and poor transportation - and the solution's right here! All they need is someone to transform that accelerator into the kind of innovative high-efficiency transportation Sund Technologies is known for.
    Meteor
    Have you had any luck recovering it?
    Tarkos Sund
    Well, there has been a little bit of a - minor - setback.
    Hero of Tython
    Was it the usefulness or the credits that occurred to you first?
    Tarkos Sund
    Money, pah. It's the thrill - can you imagine how fast a speeder would be with that accelerator attached? Problem is the old swoop tracks are crawling with beasts - beasts that nearly chewed my leg off. I'm not going to say I've overreached myself here, but I'm not really the fighting kind. I could use some help finding the accelerator.
    Voidhound
    Will you pay?
    Tarkos Sund
    One up-front finder's fee. No royalties. A man's got to turn a profit somewhere. I'll throw in some genuine Sund tech if you like. Just head out to the old tracks and scan the old bikes. If you can clear out the beasts so we can salvage the accelerator when you're done, even better.

    Dialog transcript
    Tarkos Sund
    There are two things that would really make my day right about now - an Alderaanian brandy, or news that you found the accelerator and cleared the track. One or the other. I'm not picky.
    Voidhound
    The track's clear, and we found the accelerator.
    Tarkos Sund
    You did good work. I appreciate it. Sund Tech appreciates it. The Republic appreciates it. Here you go. Don't spend it all in one place - I hear there's a superfast speeder hitting the market in ten to twelve months.
