FIRST ORDER RECRUITMENT OFFICE — PORT OF CALL, N'ORLANDO. Opening soon for the Aurora's Inaugural Voyage. Recruits will be processed in order of arrival.

[Automated notice. Fixtures are being installed. Personnel are being installed. This channel is monitored and every message on it is logged. That is not a warning. It is a description.]

LIEUTENANT KRYN has entered the conversation.

KRYN — Lieutenant Kryn, First Order. I command the Recruitment Office going in at the Port of Call. It is not open. When it opens, it will be orderly.

KRYN — Our records show several of you were aboard the Halcyon. Supreme Leader Ren remembers that voyage. He remembers it with some feeling. Inspections were conducted, and obstructed. Cargo went unaccounted for. A brig failed at the one thing a brig is for.

KRYN — The officer responsible, Lieutenant Croy, is reassigned pending review. The review is ongoing. His current location is one of the questions under review.

LIEUTENANT ESME has entered the conversation.

ESME — Lieutenant Esme. Comms and analytics. Kryn handles the room; I handle the wires. The wires say this channel has readers already. Noted. All of you.

ESME — The Supreme Leader's attention is on a holocron, stolen from him by the Resistance terrorist Rey. Ours is on what he left with us: a list, every passenger who has ever helped the Resistance. Lists are my department.

KRYN — Across the concourse from our Office, a droid repair shop is being fitted out. Drabor's Droid Depot. Their manifests are tidy. Their staff say good morning. I have not yet decided what either of those means.

ESME — Chandrila Star Line has invited the galaxy to N'Orlando to admire something it found. The galaxy will arrive as a crowd. A crowd is a manifest nobody has filed yet. I file manifests.

KRYN — The offer. The Order is assembling a Squad for this voyage: two hours, an investigation with an objective, Lieutenant Esme and I in command and you doing the work. Report to the First Order Recruitment Office at Faction Recruitment on Thursday evening (10/15), at the Port of Call.

KRYN — Bring one Mission Token. One Token is exchanged for one Mission Pin, and the Pin is your place on one specific run. When a run's Pins are gone, that run is closed. You can tell the Nav which Missions you preregister for and it will help you keep track. Your schedule is your own responsibility. Be on time. The Order does not wait.

ESME — Arrive early. Early is on time. On time is a note in your file.

KRYN — Thursday 10/15. The Order does not negotiate. The Order processes. Come and be processed.

ESME — Channel stays open. Logging.
