"I'll look into it as soon as possible", she says.

[OOC: Well, let's see.  Overnale is an agricultural world and both
Egypt and Callia would probably have to import a lot of their food
because of the harsh local conditions...which would make them a good
place to sell agro products from Overnale.  Also, all *three* are
non-Industrial, which means they would benefit from industrial
products from worlds such as Glisten.  However, Overnale is a
balkanized world with a relatively high law level, so this may
indicate some heated conflicts between the various local governments.
Probably, the best way to approach this would be to trade either with
one of the governments that is currently *not* involved in any local
wars or just arbitrarily trade with whichever polity is both most
favorably inclined towards the Imperium and is *large* enough to
assure relatively safe passage through their air/aerospace.  In
addition, if there are any active local conflicts, a market would
unfortuately be created for additional medical supplies.  Weapons
would be another possiblity, but, given the thorny regulations that
probably exist concerning weapons trading and her distaste with
conflict/chaos in general, Sharda would not be inclined to seek out
any weapons deals.  Local conflicts on Overnale may also be creating
additional pax traffic from there to, well, anywhere that's *not*
there.

All three planets also have tech levels that are much lower than
Glisten, which means that even second-tier, lower-tech industrial
products from Glisten would sell well there.  Given this final
disparity, I think we'd have an even greater chance to buy low at
Glisten and sell high to either Overnale, Egypt or Callia.]

As soon as she gets an opportunity to do so, Sharda will look for
possible trading deals based on the above parameters.
