Krenzo implied putting actual armor on market, not just starting a rumor.

Rayne says, "If we do that, one of us will have to put their armor up for sale. Even if we're not serious, that person would have to go without their armor for a bit." She pauses for a bit as she thinks it over, then says, "I don't like the thought, but I'd be willing to do it. I'm as much a talker as a fighter--and as team leader, I feel I ought to be the one to make the sacrifice, rather than asking it of either of you."

"I don't like the idea of any of us going without," Lorne responds back, now taking the meaning.

"Neither do I," says Rayne, "but this may be our best way to get a lead, both in terms of our cover and our real mission." She says this last part softly enough so Krenzo shouldn't be able to overhear.

After some thought, Rayne adds, whispering, "Right now, the only reason Krenzo is working with us is because he fears us. Which means he has every incentive to betray us. We need to give him some reason to work with us in good faith. I think we should use some of the money we were given for this mission to pay him a sort-of inverse finder's fee and tell him that any money he managed to make out of this is his to keep. Are there any other ways we could get him to work with us in good faith?"

Resyr takes a look the secret compartment under the counter, first checking for alarms. "So is no one interested the crates of Consortium goods? Our new friend seems rather fond of them," the Mandolorian says. "Or perhaps he's just nervous about them finding out where some of their goods are being babysat."

Rayne shrugs. "The Consortium already knows that he has their goods. They gave his name to us as a possible lead. What they want to know is how the Crimson Dawn knows when to attack their shipments. If they just wanted their goods back, they could raid this play place themselves. They want us to infiltrate the Crimson Dawn--which, I think for the moment, means trying to ensure Krenzo's good will."

"Yes, fine, let's try that plan," Lorne responds. "But I'm strafing his shop if this goes belly up."

Rayne nods. "The carrot and the stick." She looks to Resyr to see his thoughts on the matter.
