Upon their return to Oetrago, Luther revealed that he was the CEO of TransGalMeg Industries - a nationalised faction of the New Republic. Luther offered Eli a job within one of it's factories, and helped him to find a small apartment on the outskirts of the city. Eli worked on the factory floor for many years, before moving up the ladder. Over the course of the next five years, Eli came to manage a small group of factories under the tutelage of Luther.
Eli now wanted to repay the company that had been so good to him. He optimised, he pushed production and did whatever he did to keep the workforce happy. It wasn't long before he was noticed by external forces, and was offered a job by Het Patchateeka with Kerdos Company. Eli was given one task - to create a new production department entirely from scratch. It was beyond anything the young Alderaanian had even accomplished, but nevertheless he set about his mission. Months of tireless work culminated in factories rising from foundations, mines being bored into the ground, and an influx of workers into the Sluis system. With a few good men and women working by his side, Eli had accomplished his task and was finally able to wipe the sweat from his brow.
Some time later, Het retired from Kerdos Company, and Eli was asked to take over. Eli's leadership was conservative; servicing the needs of the New Republic without shaking the boat too much. Some months passed, and the running of Kerdos was quite smooth although there was always work to be done.
Ministry of State
It wasn't long after stepping up to the helm of Kerdos that Eli was asked by Chief of State Ro Ru Wok to sit on the Advisory Council as his Minister of State. Eli spent the early months of his new seat learning what it meant to be a member of the Advisory Council.
With the aid of Wedge Achilles, much reform was brought to the Ministry of State. The new Art, Web, and Culture teams were set up, along with the New Republic Bursary. Eli became involved in many Senate issues, and often pushed for change within the Senate and Advisory Council. One particular area of interest for Eli was the business of Trade, Industry, and Commerce. This lead to the formation of the New Republic Bureau for Commerce, which in the first instance was designed to make New Republic exports more visible, but in the second instance, aimed to create a centralised sales location. Keeping in line with this mentality, Eli represented the New Republic at the Year 16 Krath Expo, where sales in excess of 100 million credits were made.
Chief of State Elections
Eli was the first to enter the bid for Chief of State in the Year 16 Day 161 elections, with his platform largely focusing on the issue of public relations. Other areas of interest were large scale construction projects, and the exploration of deep space. In the end, Eli lost out to both Endaro Kassan and Damon Phet - having only secured 30% of the vote himself. Endaro went on to win the by-election, and Eli continued to serve as Minister of State under Chief of State Kassan.
