Note- I make the assumption that Avaro is the brother of Greedo the Elder but it is unknown in cannon. It is set just after the death of Greedo by Han Solo.
Avaro finished up a meeting with a couple of Corellians looking for a job. He knew who they were, they also applied at many of the other Casinos that he had partnerships in. They were cheats and have stolen much credits from less intelligent Casinos in Equator City. He only allowed them to get this far to meet them first hand before they are sent home via airlock. They made the same mistake as many before them, to underestimate him, his lisp in Basic that he thought of more as an advantage rather than a disability comes in handy. They will learn but for now, let them feel a small taste of victory before they taste the coldness of space.
Within a few moments, the Comm system on his desk beeped. It was his informant on Tatooine, Mos Eisley to be precise. After a few moments, Avaro shut off the Comm and swiveled his chair to look out at the cityscape. He folded his sucker tipped hands over his girth that was the result of greasy food and a laid back lifestyle. The news was not surprising but it was also not welcomed. Another Tetsu dead by the workings of Navik's hunters. Though the Tetsu in question being his dimwitted nephew Greedo made it less than a tragedy.
Avaro thought back to his brother, Greedo the Elder. An honorable bounty hunter that refused to participate in the Clan Gladiatorial events, and he kept his modesty despite being a celebrated hunter and a rival to Navik. By the time of of his brother's death at the hands of Navik's thugs, Avaro was already setting himself up as Black Sun's operative though not as successful as he is now. His brother had taught him modesty, well as much modesty that is allowed in this profession anyway.
Greedo his nephew on the other hand, though admirable his reasons were, was not equipped with the smarts to follow in his father's footsteps. Avaro always thought it a shame, perhaps he could have shown Greedo the ropes of the business as well as pass on some of his father's qualities but Greedo failed on many occasions to pull off simple jobs. Either allowing himself to be traced or like now the fault that got him killed. Greedo trusted someone too much. First rule of the fringe type business, never trust anyone, especially when your a member of a Clan that has a death mark on it. Avaro is only safe, due to his Black Sun connections but that is it. Avaro got lucky that Navik is afraid of Black Sun's wrath. Greedo let his personal grudge of Solo impair his judgement. Avaro had kept an eye on his nephew, a very close eye since his mother, Neela had contacted him to try to get under his protection. He was about to grant the protection but Greedo's idiocy prevented that. It wasn't Navik at work that killed the Tetsus at Level 88 but Greedo himself unaware of how merciless the Empire can be.
Greedo's actions only proved what Avaro had come to believe a long time ago. Information was key, ignorance was the fault and the end of many. With the right information one can make or break in this galaxy. Many came to him for information, those that he felt worthy enough to receive it left with a most powerful weapon. Before weapons or plans are made there is information without it then nothing would work or prosper. Ignorance as his nephew has shown multiple times costs people their lives regardless if innocent or not. Ignorance is for the fools and for fools alone. Though Avaro has noticed that even those who should know better have shown ignorance. Avaro gives a sigh as an information broker, he has come to hate ignorance and naiveness. It is a shame that it comes from one of his own. He can't help but wonder what Navik's response was after the Tetsu massacre at Level 88 caused by one of their own. Avaro didn't want to think about it and decided that it was enough pondering over such things. He was a survivor, if only by connections but a survivor nonetheless.
Another call from his intercom came through, it was one of his thugs, and the problem of the Corellians were taken care of. Information was the key all right and Avaro would use it to his advantage.
