The Office of the Governer of Coruscant

The princess just smiled when the new Governor walked into her doorway. Arriving in armor, even with helmet off was designed to get a rise of some kind out of the young woman. It didn't even make her flinch. She was the leader of the largest population in the galaxy, and she was good at it. She ran a good government, putting into place systems that would let her predecessor rule. Security forces and directors were ready to keep the criminal enterprises at bay. You could never eliminate it totally, not on a world like this. Even under Palpatine's iron fist and his hand in the Black Sun, there was always unchecked crime. But it was stable now.
She motioned for the man to sit. Her silver tunic reflecting the light for the city around them. Rainbow gem earrings in her ears were subtle, only noticeable when looked at. She stared at this new man, his size and armor doing nothing to intimidate her.
Nice to meet you Governor Elect Australis, I enjoyed your campaign, simple to the point. I liked that. Had I allowed myself to vote, I think I may have even voted for you. I was surprised at first when I saw a Mandalorian running in the race. You fit well. The planet is yours. It was never my goal to be here forever, just prepare the way for the next person. The infostructure is in place, and the bureaucracy is actually working well. Must be honest, I am a little proud of that. The Security defense force is strong, and the fleet is much bigger than most know. It is larger than the defense fleet was when the Republic was around.
Now, do you have any questions for me while this is still my chair?

Bold move, giving a member of the Alderaan royal family a weapon... She carefully picks it up by the head, looking at it like she has no idea of the concept. only using her thumb and two fingers to hold it. she holds it face high. Out of nowhere, a smirk crosses her face. with a smooth motion, she tosses it in the air, catching the handle. She judges the weight and balance before throwing it perfectly into the back of a hard wood chair. The blade sticking almost a half an inch into the hardwood. My people are peaceful, but old style weapons are something a lot of people take an interest in for sport. I love it, thank you very much. I know what the sharing of beskar means to you people. She hits the accent and pronounces the Mandalorian word perfectly. And on behalf of my people, the gift of your clan and the people of Coruscant is humbly accepted. This will allow us to make our new planet exactly like our old. Thank you. Pleasantries aside, Standash pauses and thinks of what to say, and how much advice she should give. The General was old, likely set in his ways. Too much advice could be taken poorly. Honestly? You will be able to use many of your skills as a warrior will serve you well. However, the jobs are very different. If you lead them like a general, they will resent you and vote you out rather quickly. Making military like moves around your people will build distrust very quickly. Be who you said you were going to be. Command the room, but listen to everyone. A man will respect you and accept your rule if he feels listened too, even if you don't do what he wants. She debates letting him in on her secret, but decides that waiting would be better.

She accepts the advice and the weapon back with a nod. I will keep that in mind.

She pushes her chair back for the last time. THe only other advice I can give you about ruling a people like this is, never be too full of yourself to listen. Listening doesn't mean you will take the advice but listen. Surround yourself with people that are worth listening to, and seek out others that may be smarter than you. She picks up her datapad and places the ax in a protective case. The rest of her personal belongings had been taken out of the office already. Be a leader you would want to have if you weren't in the position you are in.

She wanted to get defensive. Most were happy when she finally drove a dagger into the heart of the dying beast that was the old Galactic Republic, but others were still blind to the cesspit it had become. Someone, in some way, reminded her daily that they were less than pleased. She remained steady and calm, not letting any frustration show in her face. The Republic was a festering wound on the galaxy. It needed to die so the rest of the people could live. We have stayed in contact with many worlds, but they do so as free systems, not under the control of a corrupt center. I played my part in the dismantling of the system, proudly. Yes, you will need to work with other systems, know what you old and what they hold. But leave the Republic in its grave, I would hate to have to destroy something twice.

She gets a notification on her datapad, and she can't help but let a smile out.

The Galactic Alliance was only a little more than an idea at this point. A good one, but nothing concrete yet. She wasn't about to let her plans or the plans of Alderaan slip so easily, though she admired the Mandalorian's attempt. As long as the people get to remain in charge, it can work. She remembers how easy the senators were to twist and manipulate when she arrived. Their corruption made them like putty. And keeping the leaders honest. Anyway, the future of the galactic politics is not the reason you and I are here. Do you have anything else you need from me?

She shakes the man's hand. She trusted him to do his best, and that was all she could hope for. He was strong and capable. She expected to see him again. She would also keep him in mind for the future. Freinds that could command elite shock troops were always good to have, better for an Alderaanian. Until next time, Governor.
She turns to leave, but stops. She had to play her last bit of information. One last bit of advice... You may want to pardon a few thousand recent migrants. My security forces found some breaches and tracked down a small contingent of para military operatives hidden throughout the planet. No casualties on either side on detaining them. The Ion and stun beams hit their safe houses at once, disabling all defenses. Upon further review, they seem harmless enough. You can never be too careful with stuff like this...
With that she leaves the office. She knew that Kaine would realize that the troops captured had been Kaine's contingency plan. Letting him know this was two fold. It was an olive branch, telling him meant he didn't have to find out later. It also showed that once again, she was not someone to be trifled with lightly. She was smart and quick, and if needed ruthless. She had given no reason to despise her, and may have just proven that she could be a powerful ally indeed.
