Satunda,
13 Yelona,
12731

Late evening local time

Port Etmar

 
Me, a minute or less ago, to some Adepta: "Find the sniper."

Them: "We're on it!"

Also them:

Absolutely did not do that.

 
So here we are, deafened and blinded in a mixed melee + ranged blasters + mini grenades fight.

It is fine: We will simply trust in the Force.

 
For my friends who are not followers of the same religion, that means they would be trusting me.

 
The way Noki Sunfell does an axe kick is remarkably similar to holocron recordings of Jedi Master Aayla Secura.

Who died at least a decade before Noki could have been born.

 
I cannot discuss that with the Beskar. Especially not now.

 
At evening tea:

Noki finds the company of the Beskar "comforting" in an important way.

 
post-tea, walking around Port Etmar:

Noki has a hole in her memory before Hondo Ohnaka hauled her out of a disintegrating medical bay.

Noki wants to learn some skills to adult-style competence/independence. From me and presumably Davish, she wants to learn the private detective skillset. I'm assigning her a "first case" that is an emotionally casual issue. She's to investigate -- without leaving any trace the targets might notice -- past visits of the guys in the black armor for the past 2 years. Check with BoSS archives, check with local merchants for off-pattern purchases or these people as regular offworlders, then see if Trenloe will go with to Monorik to check with the Mining Guild archives.

 
Hicks reports in via group call. I thought he was off dealing with a "No, Master Obi-Wan, don't do that" thing. He says they have acquired telemetry of where the scattered enemy troops went: the bombed Tilles base in the mountains. He says they have engine problems, and they have 2 known hostages: Schoolteacher Nova Zaleed and a very drugged Boba Fett.
