Arahad stood in the meeting room of the RRS. Faithful. "Okay, Shurtagul. Why am I here? You know that me and Kad are tracking Nars Chaoka. If you want me to lead an army, you'll be disappointed. All of my command training pertains to conducting small, elite squadrons." Said Arahad. "That's why you're here. How many of my troops can you train at a time, to the level of the elite imperial troops?" Asked Shurtagul. "On my own, I can train about 400 commando troops at once, the training would take several months. However, I may be able to convince Kad's father, and his uncles to help. Maybe." Said Arahad. "Why the emphasis on maybe?" Asked Shurtagul. "Their Mando'ade, Shurtagul. Clan Skirata has never been friendly with the Empire, and aren't part of the force Madalore the Awe-inspiring hired out to the Empire, but they aren't really friendly to the Alliance either. Kads' the only member who's actually joined, and that's because the Emperor is responsible for the deaths of his mentor, Bardan Jusik, and his mother, Etain Tur-mukan. However, if old Kal Skirata could be won over, the others would follow. The ex-members of Omega squad, Darman, Niner, Fi, and Atin would be excellent for commando teams, while the ex-ARC Troopers, Maze and "null boys" as their called, wold be best used to train lone infiltration units." Said Arahad. "Hmm.. Arahad,  I'm sending you and Kad to try and recruit them. If anybody, you two will be able to do it." Said Shurtagul. "The Mandalorian mercenaries the Empire hired, are you thinking what I'm thinking about them?" Asked Arahad. "What, that we can't defeat them in open battle?" Asked Shurtagul. "That, and that if someone killed Madalore the Awe-inspiring in single combat and took the mask of Mandalore the First, they'd be the new ruler of the Mandalorian people." Said Arahad. "Seriously? The leadership of the Mandalorians is determined by who killed the last leader?" Asked Shurtagul. "The logic behind it is that the leader is always stronger than the last one. I think." Said Arahad. "So, what are you thinking of doing?" Asked Shurtagul. "Choose someone to duel Mandalore, take his mask, and become the new leader." Said Arahad. "Aye. That way we'd be in control of the Mandalorian troops!" Said Shurtagul. "Yes, but you're taking the credit. The Skirata family would kill me if I had done such a thing with their knowledge. To pull out of a mercenary contract is considered incredibly dishonorable. And, I have an idea of who to send to fight Mandalore the Awe-inspiring." Said Arahad.

"Thorn! Have I got a mission for you!" Said Shurtagul. "What?" Asked Thorn, coming out from a maintenance hatch on his corvette. (That is what Thorn has, right?) "How would you like to become Mandalore the Outsider?" Asked Arahad. Thorn just stared with his mouth open.
