Plot summary[]
Hylo Visz is a freelance smuggler doing a job for Barrga the Hutt in Corellia with her ship, Crimson Fleece, accompanied by Barrga the Hutt enforcers', Musk and his Weequay partner.
After landing in Rendili Corporate facility, Hylo Visz senses a trap, but before she can depart with the ship, she is trapped by Musk and his partner, who don't believe in her and try to finish the deal instead.
After being trapped in the cargo hatch, Hylo Visz escapes to the landing pad and sees her ship blown up after finishing the deal and taking off with the two enforcers on board, due to Rendili Vehicle Corporation trying to double-cross Barrga the Hutt.
Attempting to escape, Hylo Visz moves through the Rendili Corporate facility, without being discovered until she finds a ship; a new Defender-class light corvette doing its first flight test. Visz is able to steal the ship from the pilot, who is a Jedi and escapes from the planet.
