While Port Town serves as the primary docking point for the massive asteroid known as Skip Seven, a secondary private hangar bay exists. As part of the Nexus proper, it is exclusively for The Organization's use. Operatives, agents and S.T.A.R.S teams use this hangar bay, as do any and all incoming freighters and transports that deal exclusively with The Organization. Large enough to carry vessel of the corvette classification or smaller, this hangar bay is defended by several Organization Centurions as well as several external turbolaser batteries, anything without proper Organization clearance is automatically targeted and most likely destroyed.

The OSV Black Widow, after transmitting the proper clearance codes, touched down in the Hangar Bay that had been burrowed out in the Nexus proper. Reserved for Organization operatives and agents, as well The Illusionist's personal vessel, the Widow docked in its appropriate berth. As the ship powered down and the crew ensured it was secure, Operative Strahovski met up with the lithe framed Twi-lek at the loading ramp.
"Ms. Ajahn, I trust you enjoyed your trip here?"

The trip had been rather dull for the Twi'lek slicer. To be sure, the suite she had been given had been luxurious enough to placate her. Large, comfortable, plenty of simulated games and reading material to keep her occupied, though, with one glaring problem. The suite's computer had been disconnected from the rest of the ship, rendering it pretty much useless. A necessary precaution of course, given her chosen profession. She didn't begrudge them that, they would hardly want to risk her getting ahold of any potentially sensitive information, or worse, playing games with the ship's systems. She decided to consider the precaution as a compliment to her skills, rather than take offense at any perceived or unperceived slight. As well, she had also already decided to play nice, at least for now. Despite what the Illusionist claimed, she doubted that he was foolish enough to trust that she wouldn't try to gain access to classified or top secret documents. She would be watched carefully, probably for a good while. Which, she had to admit, was probably one of the reasons why she hadn't been allowed on the bridge or command deck during the voyage.
"It was comfortable enough. I thank you for not dumping me into one of the lower class suites. I probably would've gotten bored a lot faster if you had."
With a shrug, she dismissed the topic. She turned her thoughts instead to their present destination. During the first few hours, she had tried to guess where the Nexus was located, but gave up after the possibilities grew too extensive to keep track of. Easier to simply ask once they arrived.
"In any case, I assume we've arrived at the Nexus, though to be honest, I haven't the faintest idea of where we actually are. Nothing in the archives I saved indicated a potential new base location, and I was never able to put enough pieces together to figure it out."

Tanara Ajahn Operative Strahovski chuckled at the Twi-lek's comment about not knowing where the Nexus actually was."That was the point, in all honesty. The original Nexus was destroyed, as per The Mysterious Man's protocols. And at the time he resurfaced, The Illusionist was still trying to track down all of The Organization's remaining assets. So a new location for our headquarters was selected. Without the proper navigation charts and an up to date asteroid drift chart, one would never be able to find the Nexus. Essentially natural security."As the two walked away from where the Widow was berthed, they would pass into one of several adjoining corridors that would bring them to Refuge, an Organization run settlement within the Nexus, intended to house all employees, operatives, agents and their families. Any passers-by would notice how utterly normal the settlement looked. If one did know of The Organization, the would never find anything to connect Refuge to it."Before we speak with The Illusionist, is there any questions I can answer? I'm sure you have a lot, and you have been very patient."Miranda left the option open enough for someone like to Tanara to capitalize on gathering as much knowledge and information as she could. Obviously, Miranda couldn't speak about anything classified, by there was plenty of information Tanara could be made privy to. Provided she was willing to recommit to The Organization. She had once before, but that was a long time ago, and a lot of things could change between then and now.

The Twi'lek walked silently beside the other woman as they started moving into the adjoining corridor, her commando bodyguards falling into guard position behind them. She had noted that, while she hadn't expressly asked the question, the other woman had not actually told her where they were. It didn't really matter of course, it was more idle curiosity than genuine interest. She would find out eventually whether she was told, or simply gained access to star charts.
A small smile crept onto her face as Strahovski asked if she had any questions. As if she would give any real answers while they were still out in the open. Though, she considered, it might be worth trying, even if she knew she wouldn't get any answers. Her reactions could be entertaining.
"I have a few. Let's start with an easy one. Who is the Illusionist?"

Miranda smirked as the Twi'lek asked the first and most obvious question. There was a simple answer and there was the complicated answer. And neither one of them would satisfactorily answer Tanara's question. In truth, even Miranda didn't know who The Illusionist was. Though she knew the story of him. And that was all she could answer with, in order to answer Tanara's question.
"No one really knows who he is. All that is known is, he was The Mysterious Man's protégé before the Fall of The Organization. He studied under The Mysterious Man for nearly two decades before the fall. After the fall, he managed to locate some of our old resources and begin rebuilding The Organization into what it is now. But he's spent years dedicated his life to following his mentor's vision."
Miranda answered, more or less reciting the commonly known information about The Illusionist that could easily be found on the holo-net, as they continued walking through the corridors that would take them to Refuge. Being a skilled slicer, answering Tanara's questions as straight forward as possible was deemed beneficial. Hopefully she wouldn't ask about anything classified, though Miranda doubted the Twi'lek would refrain from doing so, given her inquisitive nature.
