That makes Edna mad. If she didn't need passage so badly she'd be inclined to demonstrate her abilities in the force with a throat grip but as satisfying as that would be, harming her pilot would probably not be the best move! She sits back and scowls then the blaster on the table catches her eye.
----------------------
Rex, can I lift the revolver with the force and turn it on him?
Since Edna has Precision... yes, she could. Lacking any talent for blasters, you wouldn't be able to do more than point it. He doesn't know that, though.

Since I really don't want to kill him I wouldn't want to fire it anyway! But hopefully it will get his attention.
--------------------------------------------
Edna feels for the blaster with the force, raises it and turns it on Rya letting a smug expression cross her face. That'll teach him for doubting her!

Edna lets the blaster drop to the table with a clatter and sits back looking disappointed. "Sorry, I wasn't trying to threaten you - simply a demonstration. I am serious though about what I can offer you. The force is more than just magic tricks. I can sense the emotions of the shady characters you have to deal with and warn you if they are trying to trick you. I really can watch your back for danger." Edna puts the hood of her cloak back up as if about to leave. "But if money really is the only thing you value, then I'm clearly wasting my time here".
-------------------------------
Rex - is he really going to accept nothing but money (of which, of course, I am assuming I have none!)?

Edna chuckles. "You mean my lightsabre? Of course! Well, until tomorrow then." Edna gets up to leave for real this time but before she leaves the booth she says "By the way I like the jacket. It suits you!" She smiles and walks away from him and back out of the cantina into the busy street.
Rya watches you go. You sense that he is intrigued.
Edna- you leave the cantina and step into the street. Where will you go now? You are painfully aware that you have no accommodations here on Nar Shaddaa.
You have two skills that could be relevant here- Survival or Savoir-Faire.
A good roll in Survival will allow you to slum it on the streets for a night safely.
A good roll in Savoir-Faire means you know the lay of the land (figuratively), and therefore people you could talk to or places you could go for shelter.
The ideas need to come from you, but I am happy to drop hints.

Sorry I am a wee bit out of practice and still getting to grips with Ush's rules - hints always appreciated. Can I go down the savoir-faire route in the hope of finding somewhere to take shelter?
For skill checks, we take a Stat and a Skill and combine them to make your dice pool. This will be an Intelligence + Savoir-Faire check, as Edna is checking to see if she knows anywhere she can go.
Edna has an Intelligence of 4 and a Savoir-Faire skill of 2, for a total of 6 dice. What you want to roll are 5s and 6s; they count as successes, and the more successes you accumulate, the better!
So I roll six dice... and you got four 5s.
It turns out that Edna knows quite a bit about Nar Shaddaa!
First, I will ask- do you remember Shareth the Hutt? From the Damagran debacle?
She did! Shareth the Hutt is an associate of Kuylen's. You do not know their history, but she did help you guys out. Then again, she helped you out when you had a great deal of gold... but it is your best shot.
You are walking away from the cantina to make for Shareth's when you sense you are being followed.
Certainly! Plenty of those around. It's as if Nar Shaddaa was made entirely of dark alleys.
It turns out that this man is not alone. As you duck into the alleyway, you sense more coming with him after you. About six total. They are a motley bunch of scruffy street thugs.

Edna senses the 6 thugs behind her and once in the Alley, she halts, turns around and addresses them. "Is there something I can do for you all? Or were you just looking to die a painful death?"
