Re: OOC Chatter (1)
Sorry, I wasn't trying to step on toes with the "trade opportunities" statement; the language I used was meant to stave off any potential curiosity on the attendant's part.
Lily is primarily concerned with physical logistics and such...who provides (and who is allowed to provide) stevedores, local regulations about loading and offloading, etc. - things she, as XO, needs to know and enforce with the crew (since she's not an advocate). And it's useful for the XO to meet with local officials and community leaders for diplomatic purposes.
