Well....time manipulation is more taxing but yes, teleportation across dimensions and locations does tend to speed up ones travel time requirements *he chuckled a bit as they rounded the first corner* This earth became my second home of sorts after I left my homeworld....

She was trying hard not to look like a tourist as they drove down the street, but she wanted to take it all in. What was the same,...what was different. She could feel the pulsating of the magic stronger out here in the open more then she could inside his home. She could feel its energy. So different from the steady flowing sensation of the Force. "Why did you choose this place? What brought you here?" She had to ask. He was a being who could go anywhere in a multi-dimensional mega verse. It was a logical question.

Well.....the magic energy to be honest. It shines like a beacon to being like myself.....there is perhaps 1 or 2 other worlds in the megaverse with the anywhere near the magic energy that permeates this world.....where before the great cataclysm any "true" magic users woudl have no choice to but to sacrifices and do rituals on the solstice and what not they can now cast spells of great power just by harnessing the ambient energy *as the drove she oculd see the civilians were essentially dressed as their profession. Armoured and all carrying sidearms of one kind or another* Dweomer, where we started, is where I made my main place of residence once I established myself but Lazlo is where I first made a home. That's where we are going after we finish here. It is probably the only place on this earth that is a truly open and accepting society.

"Ahh....I see." She nodded. "makes sense then." She sat back and watched the parade of people going about their lives. "They look like they're about to go to war at a moments notice..." she observed.

Ahhh, nothing like a good 'Well D'uh' moment. Sterling had been so caught up in the other aspects of this place that she had completely forgot what he'd told her about most of them being mercs. She smirked at bit to herself as she shook her head. "Yeah, that would make sense then."

As they turned the last corner and the stark, large building came into view, she arched an eyebrow. "Oh, we get to play with the big boys. Why do I suddenly feel under dressed for the occasion?" she joked.

"Do you need me to act like your body guard. All business and tough as bullets? Kick a few tails for you?" She snickered at the image. As if Theager ever needed a body guard. Especially someone like these guys.

She laughed as he did, sobering a little as they approached the security gate so she was only smiling pleasantly by the time he was speaking to the guard. Even though it was short lived, it had been good to hear him laugh like that. "Okay,...how about a dark femme fatal draped on your arm, cold and mysterious? Oh wait, never mind. I'm not dressed for the part. Guess you're stuck with plain, ordinary little ol' me..." she grinned as they headed for the security garage.

You are ANYTHING but ordinary.....*he smiled softly as they entered the garage and went down into the specified area to park*
*once parked he exited the car and moved around to let Sterling out as well* We are meeting with the local head of Northern Gun....one of the major weapon manufacturers on this continent. Decent prices..........especially in bulk and good quality hardware too. Not top of the line but close.

Once they were parked and he let her out of the car, she nodded at what he told her about the man they were meeting with. "Thanks for the heads up. I'll refrain from making any comments about weapons made out of break away plastic" she offered a playful grin. During the meeting she would behave herself and not make such silly comments.

You'd be surprised.....they have plastic armour on this planet....oddly effective too....*he said it with straight face because it was true as he escorted her to the nearest elevator*
*once inside he hit the button for the appropriate floor* So....how does it feel to live a day in teh life of me so far? *he smirked*

"Well, I'm sure its not made out of the same thin brittle stuff I was thinking off. I suppose it would be decent if made out of the right stuff. And lighter weight the what I'm used to."
As the door to the elevator closed she looked over at him with a grin. "Its been pretty fun so far. Of course, for you this is all mundane...But I'm enjoying it. Thanks for inviting me to tag along."

Actually..........*he chuckled a bit* It was Lara's idea......*he shifted his stance a bit*
She said you werein one of your..........restless moods again and thought the excursion would do you some good. She also felt I would like the company which of course I always enjoy your company. Damn girl is too human for her own good at times. *he shook his head and chuckled again*

"Ahh..." She nodded. "I should have known. She's very intuitive, among her other talents. Well then, I'm glad you agreed to her suggestion."

She made no comment back about him having a choice as the doors were opening to the lift. As they stepped forward she was impressed with the presentation greeting them in the foyer. She was beginning to see why he liked doing business here.

Sterling put on her best diplomatic smile, charming and pleasant, meant to put anyone at ease. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Sir." She returned the bow, only not as low as his.

Come, the contracts are more or less complete just awaiting your signature of course *he smiled and motioned for them to follow*
*putting a gentle hand on her shoulder Theagar lead her along* Yes, fun....and well mundane to be sure.......*he chuckled as he the follwoed Robert into a spacious and lavish office*
Please, take seat....*theagar moved to take a seat on the left leaving the one on the right for Sterling and robert moved around his desk and sat as well*

Walking beside Theagar, they fell into step behind Sarget She managed to stifle a soft laugh at what he said, using her words from earlier. As they entered the grand and luxurios office, she glanced around. The man was a show off and full of himself. But then again, most men of his position were. Following Robert across the room to his desk, she sat down in the chair to Theagars right. "You have a beautiful office..." She complimented with a smile. Outwardly she appeared cool and calm, comfortable in her surroundings. However, internally she was fully on guard. Her jedi senses were focused and sharp. She had been in too many situations over the years where something as mundane as this meeting could turn quickly into deep trouble.

Why thank you Ms. Stranger....*he removed some paperwork from his desk and placed it on the desk pushing it towards Theagar*
As you can see it is all standard clauses etc. We cannot be held responsible for any death dismemberment and property damages caused by our wares while you wont hem so n and so forth....*he smiled a bit*
I am sure it is all in good order Robert. It always is...*Theagar took the contract and glanced over it then to Sterling* Care to peruse this before I sign it? *she would understan that while he is hteproxy he is also the only one who has dealt with Northern Gun and therefore is theone who would have to sign*
