Reveille doubted Governor Tarkin could have planned this. This was somehow her brother’s plan to tighten their control over Sienar Fleets. Not a terrible idea, if it weren’t for the fact that Tarkin was heavily invested in Lothal and their mining industry, to the point of nearly making it a monopoly.
Thankfully, he let contacting anyone slide, for the moment.
They would move forward with that on the Exigency, instead. “Thank you, Supreme Leader.” It would be far easier to mediate from that ship than from a simple datapad. Easier to speak with Governor Tarkin and try to talk sense into either party.

Armitage Hux considered there was much he could ask for, due to this setback, but he’d resist the urge to be so petty. At least, for the moment. He might save that pettiness for tomorrow’s conversations. “That will be all for the moment. Please, show us to the rooms we may make use of,” he indicated with a gesture away from the hangar.

“No,” Hux shook his head, “We’ll determine what else is needed once we’ve settled into the accommodations,” and once he had figured out the best way to go about that, as they stood outside the rooms, “Thank you,” his tone was dismissive. He didn’t need them lingering around any further.
