The Perk - Sunday mid-morning
Kaidan was just kind of going to ignore everything about last night. It hadn't been bad. It had definitely been weird and right now he just wanted coffee and to focus on something far less weird. Banal. Boring, even.
He headed to the Perk and collected something unusual - instead of his usual pancreas-destroying confection, he got a hazelnut mocha cappuccino. The baristas all turned to look at him as though they wanted to check his forehead for fever. He offered a lopsided smile and a hefty tip in exchange.
Cup in hand, he headed to one of the comfy chairs and flopped down in it. He fired up his Omni and began reading. Shipping manifests and customs rosters from Camala for the past six years. Nice, boring reading. He let his eyes absorb the data while the background processes in his brain began collating it and picking it apart.
Something in the data made him frown. He scrolled back to look at it. Trade between Camala and Illium was to be expected; everywhere in their system did business through Illium. Why did that data point stand out? It was a puzzle. He mulled it over, sipping his coffee.
