==== Preparations ====
The Jedi [[Characters~Fecta Trigiel]], [[Characters~T'Sal]] and [[Characters~Darones Rei]] volunteer to go the (:hex) 4 -6 to support the Xrim'Adata. The Xrim'Adata are in open rebellion against the mandalorians, and union intelligence hopes to destabilize the current mandalorian leadership by supporting their rebellion.

The three Jedi got a protocol droid, EX-1T, to help with understanding the culture and communication with the Xrim. EX-1T explained the important aspects of the Xrim culture, after which the Jedi adapted their plans to make it fit better. 

==== Arrival and planning ====
Trigiel, T'Sal and Darones Rei arrived at Xrim-459, an enormous gas cloud. They were greeted by a Xrim ship calling himself a Star Destroyer, even though it was just a small vessel. The Xrim Vessel escorted the Jedi to a space station, which was basically a giant disco, from the outside and the inside. Inside they met one of the leaders of the Xrim'Adata in an informal and cosy meeting room: Admiral Norim, owner of the space station.

They exchanged handshakes and greetings, and got to business: The Xrim have a large fleet of relative small vessels with a lot of fire power. They are most effective in hit and run tactics, but they needed organization and training to become effective. 

After request from the Jedi, they all went to a formal meeting room with a holo-projector. There they evaluated key points of the Xrim and vulnerable targets from the Mandalorians. The Mandalorians held their power over the sector through means of space stations spread over the gas cloud. The stations were supplied by supply convoys. 

The Jedi came up with a plan to raid the supply convoys to weaken the space stations, and then to assault the stations self. Once their plan was complete, they divided the tasks to be done: T'Sal would set up a curriculum and a training scheme, Trigiel and Darones would train the pilots.

==== Involuntary trade ====

When they got back to their ship they found out that the Xrim had "traded" parts of their ship. Vital parts of the ship had been replaced with toys. They were not pleased with it. After some confusion EX-1T tells them they this is a custom and indicates how much people like each other or how good you are. He suggest they need to socialize with them to get to socialize or trade with them. The Xrim social events seem to include drinking, gambling, listen to hard music and dance. T'sal and Darones check they ships and get things ready for a trade of their own, while Trigiel goes to the chief to ask for them to go hang out at the bar with them. T'sal learns some dance moves from EX-1T.  

==== Dancing and trading ====

Trigiel and T'sal go to the bar to socialize with the Xrim chiefs. Darones on the other hands goes to make a trade of their own. Using his stealth and engineering skill he gets their parts back and "trades" the special prepared parts on the Xrim ships. T'sal impresses the Xrim with her dancing and their forms a dance class on the floor. Trigiels dance skills are bad, but he suggest to do some martial arts kata with T'sal and they seem to like it. After this they go back to the ship and find that Darones has finished his job and their ships is back in order. Thanks to their action the Xrim are now friendly and they seem to want to cooperate to fight the Mandalor. The big training programs starts and is finished successful. Darones, Trigiel and T'sal then leave back to Unity.
