Alright, let’s talk about this Felek Orsellio fellow, some kinda big shot they call a Rogue Trader. Now, I ain’t no spaceman or nothin’, but from what I hear, this guy’s trouble, pure and simple.

Who is this Felek Orsellio, anyhow? Well, seems like he’s one of them fancy traders out in the space, dealin’ with all sorts of things, probably some good, probably some bad. They say he’s part of some big House Orsellio, sounds important, but that don’t mean nothin’ to me. A big house can have rats just as easy as a small one.

Now, some folks say you gotta talk to him, gotta make deals. But they also sayin’ he’s tricky, like a fox in a henhouse. You go in there thinkin’ you gonna get a good bargain, and you end up losin’ your shirt. They give you choices, they say, but it’s like choosin’ between a rock and a hard place, if you ask me.

• Is he a good guy? Hah! Don’t make me laugh. From what I gather, he ain’t nobody’s friend. He’s lookin’ out for number one, just like all them bigwigs. Some say he’s even dangerous, waitin’ to stick a knife in your back the moment you turn around.
• Should you trust him? Well, my grandma used to say, “Trust everyone, but always cut the cards.” And with this Felek fella, I’d say cut the cards twice, and then keep an eye on your pockets. Don’t go doin’ no business at your doorstep, that’s what they say. Real traders, they don’t need to come beggin’ at your door. They got folks comin’ to them.
• What about that House Orsellio? Sounds like a bunch of hoity-toity folks with too much money and too little sense. They got servants, they got power, but they also got enemies. And this Felek fella, he’s right in the middle of it all, stirrin’ up trouble like a spoon in a honey pot.

People say you got choices when you talk to him. But choices ain’t always what they seem. It’s like when the salesman comes to your door, tryin’ to sell you somethin’ you don’t need, makin’ it sound all fancy and important. Next thing you know, you’re stuck with a bill you can’t pay and a pile of junk you don’t want. That’s how I reckon it is with this Felek.

And then there’s talk of battles and elevators and navigators. Sounds like a whole heap of trouble to me. If you ask me, staying away from this whole mess is the best choice. But if you gotta get involved, well, be careful. Don’t trust nobody, especially not some fancy-pants Rogue Trader who probably thinks he’s smarter than everyone else.

Now, let me tell you somethin’ about traders. My old man, he used to trade horses back in the day. And he always said, a good trader is honest, fair, and keeps his word. But these space traders, they’re a different breed. They got spaceships and lasers and who knows what else. They ain’t tradin’ horses, they’re tradin’ in secrets and power and who knows what else.

And this Felek, he’s one of the worst of ‘em, from what I hear. He’s got that House Orsellio name, but that don’t mean nothin’. Some say he’s pious, servin’ some god-emperor or somethin’. Others say he’s just a pirate with a fancy title. Reminds me of that Jan van Yastobaal fella they used to talk about, another Rogue Trader, but more like a desperado than a businessman.

So, if you ask me, you’re better off stayin’ clear of this Felek Orsellio and his whole House Orsellio mess. There’s plenty of other folks to deal with, folks who ain’t so likely to stab you in the back. But if you gotta go, go in with your eyes open, your hand on your wallet, and your wits about you. ‘Cause dealing with a Rogue Trader is like wrestling a greased pig – you might think you got him, but he’ll slip right out of your grasp and leave you covered in mud.

Remember what I said: Cut the cards twice, keep an eye on your pockets, and don’t trust nobody, especially not a smooth-talkin’ space trader with a fancy title. That’s the best advice I can give you.
