The team laid low at the refueling depot on Trebia, anticipating the Verrikan there and the flurry of activity to conceal them. The team won't be taking the Verrikan down by strength, they'll be doing it with stealth and simplicity. Zaeed called them all together and elaborated on his plan. All of them accepted, but they had reservations against taking on an entire frigate with just the four of them. He asked the salarian Kendo Holin, the asari Tristana, and the ex-Blue Sun Jace Reyn to join him while they were all in the middle of their own jobs. To that end, Zaeed recruited three freelancers as he reckoned anyone from established merc gangs would be out of the question. The Broker didn't care how the ship was to be brought down as his client was willing to pay a large fortune for it, so Zaeed accepted the job eager to claim the bounty. Zaeed saw it as a chance to restore his name, but asked the Broker for job specifics. The Shadow Broker tasked him to crash the turian frigate Verrikan. It eventually landed him a stint as a Shadow Broker hireling.
The work got him by, but he figured the only way to restore his name and reputation is to do something big. Zaeed kept hearing from people how he ended up being a washed-up has-been that no one would hire even to "scrape vermin shit out of a trash block." He would have none of it and started taking advertised jobs as an independent contractor after pulling himself together. Zaeed survived the hit and took to drowning himself in alcohol as he recovered, calling it "adjusting just fine." Not a day went by without him thinking of revenge, initially, but as time went by it did happen eventually. Most guys in Zaeed's age can't handle a career change at that point in life, he claims.
