Guard assignments were the worst, but they unfortunately tended to pay the best especially when the one being guarded was high ranking, in this case, the president of a multi-world mining group.

Cold and hard-headed, N’wk made many enemies over the years and rarely left the protection of his home-world headquarters, however surveys had shown that Umla-3 had an untapped bounty of minerals waiting to be exploited. He’d sent several negotiators to their government but had made little headway; they wanted to speak to him, in person.

That was where she’d come in, hired for an exorbitant amount; she’d argued that she didn’t do guard assignments as a rule and he’d argued that the best defense against assassins....was another assassin. Finding his logic and amount sound, she’d accepted.

Negotiations were not going well. They’d been there a week with no compromised reached and civility was becoming strained to the point that a Jedi had been called in to help things along and prevent a war from breaking out.

Fricka glanced at the sun; he was due any moment. She wasn’t happy with it as she’d tangled with the Jedi before, both good and bad occasions, but she was nothing but a guard in this case... she had no say.
