The Marev Fleet takes up geostationary orbit about a degree of latitude north of Keldabe, allowing free vectors for incoming ships while staying close enough that the transports and freighters making regular trips to the surface from the fleet had short trips. The Venator Ijaat launched a squadron of fighters every couple of hours to patrol the system.

Aloriya ended her comm with Aliit'alor Dral and set the Marev Fleet into motion. The Mirshir headed north towards their old bastion to investigate whether or not it was still standing, or at the very least whether anyone had laid claim to it in their absence. There wasn't enough space in their old bastion for the whole clan, but some would need to remain with the fleet so that there was an operational force manning the ships at all times. They had spent 10 years on the run fearing persecution because such a large portion of the clan were force sensitives. It would probably be a while before their clan settled enough to lower their constant vigil.
She sent additional orders for the Muun'bajir to separate itself from the fleet and prep for a hyperspace journey.
"I take it that we won't be joining the others on the ground Alor'aan Aloriya?" The commander of the Muun'bajir, Atin, was clearly disappointed in the turn of events. Aloriya considered for a moment. It had been a long time since any of the clan had been home.
"Yes and No Alor'ad Atin. You will not be Immediately joining the rest of the ground forces at Yaim. You and your crew will be permitted a short shore-leave during which time you will re-provision the Muun'bajir." She paused to allow him to process that information. Then she decided to add a little additional incentive. "Besides, Alor'ad, other than actually visiting our old bastion, there's nothing to do there except rebuilding what has surely fallen into a terrible state of dis-repair in the last 10 years.However, before we leave, you will of course be provided the opportunity to claim your homesteads."
There was a brief silence over the comms. "Where are we headed Alor'aan?" Alor'ad Atin seemed much more enthusiastic about his orders now. Aloriya knew the men in her command. some of them she was sure would be quite content to begin working on the old bastion and building new ones for the rest of the clan that would be staying here on Mandalore. But given the choice, Atin would much rather be on a mission that working on a construction crew.
"We are going to pay a visit to Kashyyk."

Dral's Komyrk broke atmosphere and headed for the Ijaat. As he did so, he noticed the Mirshir moving north, but he also noticed the Muun'bajir altering its vector. Aloriya had clearly decided to take action on an idea she had come up with during their return trip to Mandalore. He decided that she was capable of making command decisions such as this. Perhaps he would promote her to fleet commander and focus more on clan matters. In fact, he decided he would take a tour of the mandalorian sector and see the state of affairs in what remained of the Mandalorian Empire. From what he had gathered so far, there wasn't much to actually call an Empire anymore. He knew there was rebuilding to be done. But it would be useful to see how much re-building there was to be done, and to consult with other clan leaders on what Aliit Marev could do to best help with the effort.

Dral landed in the Ijaat's hanger bay and headed for the bridge. He arrived just as his wife was finishing her report on their orbital observations of tye Bastion. "- veshok trees have grown up in the fields. We will have to clear them before we can begin farming them again. The sensors have not found anything to indicate intelligent presence recently. And i cannot sense anything in the force down there besides the usual wildlife. All in all, it seems like our bastion has remained unclaimed."
"Jate Buir. I will move the fleet's orbit pattern to above the bastion and we will offload as as many people to help with the re-building as possible as fast as we can."
"Returcemii, cyar'ika. See you and your buir on the ground soon." Ruusaan ended the transmission.
"Sounds like things are looking good. Take us in Ad'ika."
"With pleasure Buir." Aloriya began issuing orders for the rest of the fleet, excepting the Muun'bajir, to join the Mirshir above the bastion and to begin preparing shuttle to land working parties.

As the Marev Fleet positions itself over the bastion, the shuttles and freighters begin ferrying people and equipment to the surface. Reports flow back of discoveries relating to the condition of various parts of the bastion. The clan was well and truly set into rebuilding and expanding the bastion now. Soon they would have it in a liveable condition.

Im headed to the surface now ad'ika. Please do join us for a while before you depart for Kashyyk. Also, ensure that you swap out whichever crew members from the Muun'bajurii wish to remain behind for ones from one of the other Keldabes who desire more action and adventure. Dral said addressing his daughter and second in command.
Dont worry Buir, I have thought of this already. After they have re-supplied from Keldabe, we will make a stop here at the bastion for at least a few hours, maybe a whole day before we head out. Ive already ordered them to take their main shore-leave in Keldabe.
Aloriya was ready to be promoted Dral thought. I will handle that when she returns from Kashyyk. Another thing before you go Aloriya, get a translator. Droid, software, or wet, doesn't matter. Just make sure you can negotiate with the wookies for the saplings. We have a decent amount of credits and assets we can liquidate if we need to. But money may not be the biggest issue. I dont know what the wookies will think of our interest in the trees. Nor how they will react to us trying to procure them. Go careful.
I will buir. Don't worry. Ill stop by keldabe and see if they have a translation software i can install in my buy'ce.
Jate ad'ika. See you soon.

Having just sent Dral the vectors and coordinates for the interesting structure on a lake almost due west of their bastion's position, Aloriya checks on the fleet's progress. The Venator Ijaat was holding in Geostationary orbit directly over the Bastion, the Two remaining Keldabes, the Mirshir and the Naast, were positioned above and to planetary south of the Ijaat and both facing the same direction as the Ijaat.. She ordered the Naast to change it's position to hold north of the Ijaat and to face Aft of the Venator. That would provide better cover for the Bastion. The Juriir was being loaded with the personnel who would be comprising the majority of the work force in rebuilding and fortifying the bastion prior to expanding enough to house the whole clan.
We may not need to house the WHOLE clan here. Aloriya thought. There are still several worlds under Mandalorian rule. It would be wise to spread our clan out and not center us in one place. I'll bring this up with Buir when I visit the bastion.
She handed the Bridge over to the next officer and headed for her Transport. She was going to join the Muun'bajir now.

The Jurir finished it's loading of personnel and equipment as Aloriya was launching her personal Komyrk fighter transport. She hadn't gotten around to naming it yet, but she figured that when the name came to her it would fit the ship perfectly. It was the Black and Red of Aliit Marev, with dark green Flashings outlined in a thin strip of Gold.
As Aloriya Vectored towards Keldabe, the Jurir began dropping through the atmosphere to deliver its cargo of workers and supplies and equipment to the bastion.

Having taken Command of the Ijaat after Dral and then Aloriya had departed, Prudii began his watch on the bridge. The most interesting things likely to take place now were requests for more equipment or personnel from the ground, or a rotation of personnel back to the ship and replacements being sent down.
Sir, we are picking up a faint Distress signal. The comm officer called from the sensor pit.
Or maybe there WERE more interesting things that could happen. Thought Prudii as he strode down the central walkway to receive a more direct report from the comm Officer.
The message has degraded somewhat, it seems old sir. Given the signal strength, I would imagine it is coming from quite a distance away.
Can you hail them?
Negative sir, they may not be capable of receiving our signal. It's even possible that they can only send out the distress signal but nothing more.
Very well, dispatch a YT-1930 and two Fang Fighters. have them investigate the signal. If they need a larger ship, have them report back. If there's no ship there, and it's just an old signal just reaching us now, then just have them return. If they find survivors, they are to offer their assistance and carefully provide aide if necessary. once they are on site, i want them to maintain a comm channel to inform us of how it is progressing. Also, send a routine report to the Aliit'alor, as well as Aloriya and Ruusaan informing them of the situation.

B13X watched through the view port of the...now designated "I Am." Unlike organics, he could fully understand what was going on based on the very intricate sensor technology that was placed within him. The ships approached, and lingered for a moment, until two fighters encircled the ship several times. The YT-1930 would extend several cables to tow the modified shuttle. No signs of life could be detected, but some energy, of course, could be.
B13X considered opening the hatch, and leaning out to greet them visually, but with the aggressive nature of the Mandalorians... (Which he presumed them to be due to markings on the hulls of their ships)...it might be best to wait until they had already journeyed back to livable space. So, that was what he did. He waited, and the tow began.
Upon reaching an appropriate orbit, he would let the hatch to the ship extend, and he would walk forward. He hung onto the railing and waved a very shiny metallic hand. He would hang there in place for a moment, until he was sure he had been seen, before closing the hatch, and walking back inside. He was nearly certain the pilots would be confused by his humanoid shape, but, never the less, he was sure they would at least speak with him before they hurled the ship into a junk yard.
Now that he personally was back into space, he was able to upload his mind into the First Order Archives. He was also fairly certain that a model like him would have been created to take up his charges. Perhaps, they would attempt to destroy the originator. He wondered what upgrades the models might have, or if they would be inferior for mass production. So many questions he wanted to know the answer to. How exciting.

After Sealing their suits against vacuum and strapping on their jetpacks, the three mandalorians made their way through the airlock and stepped out into space. Activating their jetpacks, the mandalorians flew to the airlock of the ship in tow and knocked on the airlock door. Normal beings would usually be un-nerved by the sound of a knock on a door from vacuum. But the logical conclusion should come to whoever the occupant of this damaged vessal was. |

B13X anticipated their arrival. They were Mandalorian, far more prone to the hazards of space than to risk the clans in introducing an unknown element. The doors, of course, would open. The droid stood there, in it's full splendid glory. It didn't look terrible dissimilar from the suited Mandalorians that had approached.
"Su cuy'gar" (Hello!: You are still alive.) The droid offered upon the airlock being reshut. It would be pretty obvious, on their sensors, that the life support systems were non functioning, and their suits were still required to walk around inside the vessel. There was no need for such things when the only occupant was a droid, and they had been the first things to be disassembled in the necessary repairs to keep himself operational.
"Ni B13X." (I [am] B13X)
"Ni soleg, Ga soleg common. (I reckon that you understand common.) So, I will continue in it, for I do not know how the language has evolved outside of my databases. Thank you for coming to my aid, Mandolorians. I am quite Briikase (happy), as it were. "
"I would ask for a ship repair, or perhaps, simply access to a cheap vessel. I presume I will need to work for it, and will need some voucher to allow me onto your planet, if the clans are operating similarly to how they were on my last visit... I would request contact with one Faelan Bralor, I am known to him, and he and his ought to be able to provide my voucher."

The Mandalorians were a little surprised at the fact that the Droid knew of Mando'a.
Su'cuy B13X, Ni gai Kad Marev teh Aliit Marev. I believe we will be able to help you. I think our first course of action will be to inform our chain of command of what- who, N'eparavu, we have found here. we will continue our tow operations for now until we receive orders to do otherwise. Due to security protocol, and seeing as you are in no immediate danger, we would appreciate it if you would remain on your ship. we should have everything sorted out with the Aliit'alor soon. Unless you have anything else B13X, We will get to work on getting you back to Faelan Bralor. Ret'uryce mhi Burc'ya.
The Mandalorians headed back to the airlock.

The Muun'bajir headed for the Marev Fleet, once there, they maintained geostationary orbit above the stronghold and shuttled people down. Aloriya and her entourage went down in the Komyrk. They would not need to stake a claim to any of the spots in the area around the stronghold, they would be staying in the stronghold itself. All that was there for them to do was visit Dral.

An orbiting Da'yirya-Class Mandalorian Carrier, named Shadowborn, had been sent to Mandalore to pick up some potential recruits for the building Mandalorian Defense Corps. This mission had been under the direct command of Aliit'ator Galaar Fett, the Corps commander. It was an excuse to get away from Concord Dawn and see Mandalore after being away for some time. The captain on the bridge sent a communication to his clan leader who was on the surface at the time.
Eventually, the presence of the unidentified ship, belonging to B13X, caught the attention of this Mandalorian, who also was reported of a Mandalorian ship in orbit. Eventually, he opened a channel to Marev's ship.This is Galaar Fett to... Marev clan ship? I think I got that right. You mind telling me what the unidentified ship is in orbit?

Su'cuy Aliit'alor! The man's voice held a note of amusement. This is YT-1930, The Galaar, of the Marev Fleet. We towed this back from about a half-lightyear out. It was broadcasting a distress signal. We discovered an inorganic lifeform by the designation B13X. It requested to work for the use of a cheap ship. It mentioned that we might contact Faelen Bralor on it's behalf. Supposedly the droid already has had dealings with Aliit'alor Bralor. |

Faelan Bralor, he hadn't heard from neither him nor Torin since the raid on Lianna. Torin had been a more recent contact as he led the Bralor fleet against the defending ships of Lianna. Faelan was less recent of a contact. Likely back on Agamar or on some business with the Empire. Galaar keys his comlink after a moment to respond.Well... this B13X will be disappointed, but I have not heard from Faelan Bralor in quite some time, likely on Mandalorian business or doing jobs for the Empire. It's one of those two. He has been gone for some months, so... might be best if this droid deals with another Allit'ator. |

This news put a slight hitch in what had up until this point been a simple rescue and release mission. after a few moments of thought, The Sergeant in charge of this operation keyed back to Galaar.I see. Well, seeing as we were the ones to tow this hunk of junk out from the black, I guess we'll have him deal with Dral. Unless you want him Aliit'alor Fett? |

A pause was heard in the communication as Fett spoke with his lieutenants. It seemed they would be on Mandalore for awhile, so Galaar could take this matter into his hands. The comlink is keyed as the Mandalorian speaks back to Sergeant.Bring our guest to Keldabe and I will speak with him myself.
Understood. We will notify our command and then proceed to Keldabe. Hitting the end transmission button on the comm board, the sergeant turned to the others and gave the command to send a transmission to the ship in tow which had B13X on board, informing the droid that they would be towing him into Keldabe. He then keyed his comm board again and sent a brief message to Alor'ad Prudii informing him that they would be towing the ship to Keldabe and handing over the ship and the droid on board to Aliit'alor Fett. After receiving the green light from Prudii, they got underway vectoring toward Keldabe. |
