Once Upon A Time, I would have been really excited about this too. But SOE has absolutely no history of trying to run a consistant storyline that would reflect changes to the game. "Cries of Alderaan" was their single stab at it and it tanked. I had hopes for "Secrets of Syren" but I'm doubtful there's any corolation between "SoS", this Entertainer mission and Smuggling Missions.
I'm also aware that the NPC dialogue was "loaded" for me. It'd been hard not the see that word in use, especially in a criminal setting, and not jump to conclusions. Still, it hit a sore spot pretty hard.
My life is complete.I think they can get away with it because Spinning didn't use the actual trademark symbol when he posted it.
Soon™
And "pwned"™ as well.

yes that might have been me talking
I'm guessing that the "Prince" they are talking about is Xizor (sp?).
Maybe they are hinting at a new Black Sun faction.
And as soon as the Black Sun faction goes in, they'll also have a Hutt faction as their enemy.
And maybe I'll grow wings tomorrow and fly around the world looking down cute girls shirts.
No no no, the Prince is us!
Because they're hinting that somehow we think that all the attention and glory should be on us..
....now who would think that?

I thought it was just a reference to the Syren quest. Talk about jumping at shadows.

but then again i'm not really paying attention to what i'm doing.

I suspect more of this will come up now. You know, part of our revamp. Kind of like the slicing damage cap being below the weapon crafting damage cap. Just enough to let us know how much they love us. And by 'love' I mean 'crap all over'.
The Smuggler revamp is going to be a bunch of insults. Every profession besides Smuggler will probably even get a new skill where they point at, laugh at and insult Smugglers, then one-hit kill them. The Devs will claim it's Smuggler "content".
