The out-fitter mulls over Baltaar's observation, "Well Commander, we did finally obtain samples."
"And how is that?" Commander Baltaar inquires.
"Wasn't easy," the out-fitter heaves, "Had to dig by hand. Then we got to sub-strata, had to switch it to syn-chitin tooling. Avoided friction and heat."
"Wouldn't want to damage the product during handling, No," Baltaar advises.
"Yes Commander," the out-fitter confirms, "Syh-chitin digging takes longer, and the syn-chitin needs replaced constanly."
"And it is costly too," Commander Baltaar remarks, "This fortune is costing me a small fortune."
"Almost need the Syn-chitin to grow back as fast as we dig," the out-fitter replies.
"We'll have to look into it," Baltaar decides, "Tell me about the samples."
The tone of the out-fitter changes up, "The Astral-Chem'stests came back and the tuylium grades out as ultra-pure. He says it's the purest he ever tested outside the lab."
