The Carannia Spaceport, also known as the Serenno Spaceport, was the spaceport of Carannia, on the planet Serenno.

Stryfe slipped into the spaceport via a side entrance, and made her way to an impound lot where abandoned and seized starships were held until fines were paid, or until they were sold at a court-sanctioned auction. A crooked impoundsman was a criminal's best friend. When you needed a throw-away ride, he could be counted upon to provide you something spaceworthy at a fraction of the market cost, so long as you didn't mind it being flagged as stolen whenever the real owner turned up and found it missing. If you only needed a ship for a few days, it was a perfect arrangement. By the time the authorities caught up with the ship, you and your crime would be over and gone.
Pausing in front of a rusty old metal shed, she knocked three times. There was a grunt inside, and the door opened a crack, revealing a massive hand. Stryfe dropped a five hundred credit chip into the muscular, hairy paw, and in exchange, the grubby being inside handed her a datacard with 'Docking Bay 3A-9' scribbled on it in charcoal.
The rest of the heist/borrowing was a mere formality, and ten minutes later, she was space-bound in an old rusty YT-700 light freighter.

The Conclave of God settled down into one of the open VIP hanger structures. It had been expected, with being an invited guest of the current command structure of the planet, but it was still a nice gesture. Only three figures exited the craft. The remainder of the crew & staff, if any had bothered to come, remained out of sight inside the craft. The hull shielding of the craft made it impossible to tell if anyone was still on board the craft & its official diplomatic status would make anyone think several times before approaching it.
As was normal for Mandalorians, all three figures were completely enclosed in their armor, showing nothing of themselves to the outside world. While the design pattern of the three suits varied, it wouldn't be enough to solidly distinguish them from other suits of mandalorian armor. Two of them, however, sported twin strips of yellow cloth descending from their shoulders, straight down to their hips. The third lacked this feature, but instead had a cowl of light grey fabric covering his shoulders & helmet. Within moments, one of the yellow cloth figures took the lead, with the other two figures moving into position on his flanks. Once they had proceeded to the gatehouse of the docking area, they waited to be greeted by any on hand to represent the local government.

A small delegation of various diplomats, representatives, and royal guardsmen stood in wait at the VIP hangar. As the three figures exited, they all exchanged mildly worried glances upon seeing the armored figures. However, the leader of the small group brushed off their concerned glances. He stepped forward to greet them. Greetings. I am Selena Vinyaya, speaker of the assembly. We are assembled here today to welcome you to Serenno. Please, follow us. We have a transport waiting to take you to the Dooku Family estate. Normally, business would be conducted in the Assembly House, but it is currently being rebuilt, so his excellency is waiting for you at his mansion.

There was a short pause. Most likely while the three either checked in with someone still on the ship, or talked among themselves. It would be immposible to tell which without being tapped into their communication grid, something that would be impossible without both the correct type of gear & the secret coding system used by House D'Ordinii. Or maybe they were just trying to make the reception group sweat. With Mandos, that was always an option as well.
-Leader figure That is acceptable. Lead on.
With that brief pair of statements, the trio would follow wherever the reception party lead. For the entire trip, the group would seemingly stare straight ahead, ignoring or not caring about any sites or wonders they might pass. It would be dangerous, however, to assume that they were not fully aware of their surroundings at any given moment.

Vinyaya nodded slightly before turning around, with the Mandalorians in tow. As they walked, Selena addressed the emissaries. Very good. His excellency hopes you will enjoy your time on Serenno. As she said this, they arrived at a small landing pad at the edge of the spaceport. Here sat a trio of ComfortRide Speeders. Vinyaya gestured to them. These will take us to the estate.

Slowly, the Sable drifted down through the atmosphere, headed to Carannia spaceport. Docking, the ship vented exhaust and coolant, engines cycling down, before the ramp lowered.
Walking down the ramp, dressed in his typical garb of boots, pants, and matching navy-blue tunic and cape, Janos paused at the bottom, foot tapping impatiently. Very few details had been given about this particular job, and though the reward was good enough - he'd been paid far better for far less - he was, frankly, a little strapped at the moment. Not for cash, mind you - but adventure. Since Kessel, some months before, he had been plotting and planning. But, key elements for his upcoming job still eluded him. This job, perhaps, would take his mind off things, and allow him to focus. Hand resting at his side on the handle of his blaster, he idly checked the time via his gauntlet datapad chrono.
Any minute now, his contact would be arriving.

A trio of commando droids arrived, sporting the House Emblem on them. They were members of the Serenno Guard, the most lethat troops the "official" SDF had to throw at an enemy. The sun, already beginning to set, was glinting off the gold inlaid in the emblem. The lead droid stepped up to him. Hello. I am LE-01. The Count has asked to see you at his private manor. If you follow me, we will be going to Saffia. There, the Count has a transport waiting.

Battle droids - commando models by the looks of them. Janos' first instinct was to start firing - but, then, that was the former mercenary in him. Not that a stun pistol would do much good against even a regular droid, let alone combat models like these.
Shaking his head, Janos took his hand off his weapon, gesturing to the platform.
"Yeah...no offense, but he can meet me here, or find somebody else. I don't want to be on this planet a single second longer than I have to. Besides the fact, being surrounded by a potential employer's battle droids at his no-doubt highly secure manor would be at the very bottom of my list, no matter who he is." Tapping his foot once, more, Janos hitched a thumb over his shoulder at his ship behind him. "He's got ten minutes, or I'm blasting out of here. Good luck finding another thief that can pull this stunt off, too."

The commando droid got on comms with someone, then turned back to Janos. The Count will be coming here, but would like to conduct any business inside his ship.
-9 minutes later-
The Count’s closed-top speeder stopped next to the docking bay, and put stepped the Count. He was slightly miffed that the theif has asked him to come out here, but he didn’t care much. “Greetings, theif. I have come to you since you are one of the best in your trade. You are Janos Galfridian, correct?”

"Right, right...whatever." Janos replied to the droid. Janos didn't care much for nobles; and a Jedi noble was about as bad as it got.
Settling in for a wait, he crossed his arms - counting the seconds.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Count got here faster than Janos had anticipated; he had gotten to nine minutes and thirty seconds, and was fully prepared to leave. Apparently he was rather motivated.
"...Damn. I was sure you wouldn't make it." Said Janos, disappointed. Shaking his head, Janos reached into his jacket, retrieving a pack of cigaras. Tapping one out, he put the pack back in his jacket, before lighting it. The bittersweet scent of Marcan herb wafted through the air, the cigara emitting a pungent yellow smoke.
"So...the job?"

The Count could sense the disdain which he held the noblity and the Jedi with. He resisted the urge to shake his head, knowing that men like these were hard to come by. “The job is a difficult one, though I think you should be able to handle it. The target in question is this computer chip, held on the world of Mygeeto in a supposedly impenetrable vault that had been constructed by the banking clan. He held out a small holoprojector. It lit up, displaying the chip. “The fact that it is located deep within First Order space has made it impossible for us to collect any recent data. However, the site has remained untouched since the Clone Wars, so I am relatively sure it will not present much of a challenge. The projector changed to a different slide, showing the construction of the vault. It consisted a central space and four outlying rooms. The central space was circular and had a pillar in the center. In that pillar was the computer chip. Surrounding the central room was a series of sensor pads hooked up to a strange mechanism. Beneath it was a pit that had been excavated to a depth at which metal would melt. The corridors leading to the room were littered with all sorts of defenses, ranging from flamethrowers, Gatling lasers, opening floors, and chemical weapons to blades that would behead you, saws that would rip you to shreads, and rays that instantly melt you. “The main vault which contains the chip is in the center. The walls, ceilings, and floors are lined with sensors, both inside and out. It is impossible to tunnel directly into the vault without setting off the sensors and dropping the vault into the chasm below it. The hallways leading from the four entrance points to the vault are lined with enough traps to fool a Force Sensative, and the doors require advanced biometric scans that only one of the original core five could access. The complex itself is located under a hundred feet of volcanic rock. However, since you are a master theif I believe you will find a way to solve this.” He paused for a moment, turning off the hologram. He then pointed to a hangar on which the government seal had been painted on the door. “Anything and everything you could need for the heist is in there. You will also find a cloaking-equipped ship. The ship is for you to keep, as is 150,000 credits if you bring me back the chip.”

Janos listened to the Count, describing the lucrative defenses; a microchip was the item in question needed. Taking a long pull from his Cigara, he eventually flicked it to the ground, grinding it out under his heel. "Yeah...no thanks." Tapping out another cigara, he lit this one also, inclining his head to the Count.
"I was a mercenary before I turned pacifist. Did all kinds of dangerous work for all kinds of dangerous people. I only lived so long, though, because I knew when a job wasn't worth the risk." Blowing out a puff of smoke, he rolled the cigara between his lips. "This job? What you're talking about is a multi-million credit job; and it isn't worth the risk. Not for what you're paying me."
Shaking his head, Janos took another draw on the cigara, before explaining further. You hinted that this was some kind of bank vault. What you're describing is a military grade installation. Only a fool, master or otherwise, would fly a stealthed ship onto a First Order planet to break into a military grade installation."
Janos paused, then, chewing on the end of the cigara. But...I get the sense you're not short on credits. I also get the sense you're not going to go and do this yourself - a Jedi wouldn't do that, and a noble would be even less inclined." Spitting the cigara out, Janos shrugged. "Two and a half million, plus the ship and the excavator I asked for. No less."

The Count sighed. This man drove a hard bargain. But then again, he wasn’t exactly strapped for credits. 2 million was a drop in the bucket, especially considering he had spent 100 times that to build his new palace. “2.75 million is my offer. Plus the ship and the excavator. Is that good?”
