*The mayor let out a soft "oh" as he stood up and returned the polite bow, the vocalization likely drowned out by the spaceport choir. Tiya only nodded, laughing jovially at the question.* "Meant no offense, friend, just very eager to get a little looksee at our new friends!"
"And of course," *Kin said, gesturing to the nearby crates stacked upon hoversleds,* "our cargo is in proper shape as well, but please, feel free to inspect it if you so desire."
*Tiya snorted.* "Mayor here's got an off day, so he insisted on joining me."
*Kin frowned at her, almost looking genuinely insulted.* "Miss Slenn, you wound me. You seemed rather excited to receive this shipment, so I was curious..."

She was suddenly less sure that the pair of them had been there to greet her simply due to her family connections. While gawkers were annoying, at least she was more sure of the rules on how to deal with them. She still wasn't sure what to make of these two, but they seemed more interested in the cargo that her. That was perfectly fine with her, as long as she wasn't asked to open any of the crates. The only animals she deal with was during hunting or fishing.

No offense was taken. Would you care to inspect the pods? I'm sorry but this is my first time making a delivery here. I'm unsure of your delivery & unloading procedures.

*Tiya's face lit up and she nodded, taking a datapad from her belt.* "By all means, if you'd be so kind to lead the way!" *Over her shoulder, she shouted,* "Barnes! Forester! Need your eyes over here!"
*Two unassuming human men, uniformed in agricultural unit garb, voiced affirmatives before coming to her side. Tiya then glanced sideways at Kin and held up a hand.* "May want to wait here, Mister Mayor, don't wanna crowd the newbie's ship and make her feel all stuffy."
*Surprisingly, the Gossam took this in stride, nodding as he clasped his hands again.* "That is fine by me. I must admit she's correct, I was not meant to accompany her originally, heh heh."

The GR75 was a medium freighter & nearly as large as a smaller corvette. While the original design had a fully open cargo bay that could hold a loose jumble of cargo pods, the ones produced by the Mandalorian Empire were designed to hold only a single mission pod at a time. The Empire actually had two standard mission pods designed for cargos. The first was basically a big open area for raw goods. The one her ship was actually equipped with at the moment was known as the General Cargo pod. That design had the internal space divided up into 18 smaller bays split across three decks, with a central loading passageway down the center of each deck and a cargo lift at the rear of the pod. It also made things simple for loading & unloading, as all the important parts of the ship could not be easily accessed from the pod.
Leading the way into the cargo pod, she opened the massive door to the first cargo bay, revealing 325 of the bulky cryo pods. Each pod had a softly glowing display panel that allowed inspection of the animal frozen within, without requiring the pod to be opened. Each of the pods had their own power supply in case of problems or while being loaded & unloaded, but they were also wired into the ship's power bus for general use. She wasn't sure what was in the pods, she could have checked the cargo manifest if she cared, but it didn't seem that important. Each of the cyro devices was large enough to fit a reek, if it was laying down, or some large number of smaller animals if in pens within the pod. All told, there were nearly 6,000 of the cryo pods loaded onto the ship. Orania was wondering how long it would take for them to be unloaded here.

*Tiya and her comrades seemed less interested in the ship itself and more interested in the cargo, soon as they entered the pod. She left general inspection to her assistants, mostly fawning over all the creatures within. She did ask various questions, mostly regarding their breed, diet, and various specialties, but only insofar as Orania could answer. Her questioning clearly came from equal parts business and earnest eagerness, while her two assistants were rather levelheaded and straightforward in comparison.
Eventually, satisfied enough, Tiya exhaled and turned to Orania, nodding.* "I'm ready to offload then, and our crew will be more than happy to load up our offerings as well in kind."

Unfortunately, Orania didn't know practically any of the details about the cargo. Fortunately, most of the details they wanted were listed in the cargo manifest. Fortunately, she also didn't have to stick around for the unloading or loading process. Since she could lock out the crew areas with the security systems on the ship.
-Orania
That would be much appreciated, as I think I only have some basic loading carts on board. While they are doing that, do you have any suggestions for things in town? This is pretty much the first world I have ever visited outside of Lehon.

*Tiya looked up from her datapad curiously, tilting her head a moment before shrugging her shoulders.* "New museum might be of interest. Guess someone finally had the bright idea of finding a way to let the locals get up close and personal with the planet's environment, just without the risk of death and disease." *She laughs heartily, sighing afterwards while shaking her head. Looking back at her datapad, she sends for the loading crew as she adds,* "Other'n that, nothing too spectacularly out of the ordinary. You like noodles? We got noodles."

After retrieving her service cap, a type of hat called a jeonnip, Orania did enjoy a bowl of noodles in town. Her ancestors would not have been able to eat the fungus based noodles, but modern science meant that she carried around a small bottle of enzyme pills. Taking one before the meal would allow her to safely digest pretty much any type of food in the galaxy, regardless of the limitations of her own natural diet. She figured that the pills didn't actually cover every possible food. That would be nearly impossible, but she had yet to find something for general sale that the pills didn't allow her to eat. By the time she was finished with a meal & a brief tour of some of the in town attractions, she received a notification from the ship that the shipment had been unloaded and the new cargo had been loaded in its place. It didn't take her long to return to the Loading Zone, check to make sure the cargo was secure, and get clearance to launch. It hadn't been dangerous or exciting, but her first visit to a world outside the Imperium had been interesting.
