"Because you look like someone ripe to be beaten and robbed as soon as you leave the bar. This isn't a nice place. It isn't a nice city."

"Well, we're going to have to walk into town Rura." Gald grabs his things from the car and they begin walking towards the spaceport, a little ways away from where they were last altogether.

He certainly had the wrong impression of Edna. She could show him a thing or two about wha she was capable of "Yeah I've noticed. And maybe I'm not a nice girl! Don't worry about me. Spent my life surrounded by scum like this. To be honest I find the whole planet kinda dull!"

"Well, that's interesting," says the man. "If you find this planet so dull, what exactly brings you here?"

-

Rex, you can't shake the feeling that you are being followd as well...

Gald keeps walking, having a strange feeling that he's being followed. He keeps his hand on his father's lightsaber loosely, which he does for "luck."

There are definite footsteps behind you Rex. And from the outline in the gloom (as it is slowly growing darker by now), it looks like one of Faylar's bodyguard.

Gald turns around, and so does Rura. Rura tosses Gald his pistol behind their backs. The bodyguard quickly flits behind a tree. Gald says nothing, and neither does Rura, who slinks off to a nearby pool to stay hidden.

Got dumped here! Guess you could say i was a stow away. Got found,obviously and they didn't mind me being there at first. Made a good temporary servent till the captain decided I'd outstayed my welcome and dumped me on the nearest inhabited planet. Wish he'd just killed me and saved me from this misery. Bin here a few days now and all there seems to be is a big palace wall and a dumb jungle. Seems to be nothing to do but spend my time in places like this. Atleast i can get a good drink and sme free entertainment" Edna raises her eyebrow towards some drunk singing and knocking over furniture in his attempts to reach the bar.

Gald, keeping his eyes on the tree, walks away, looking over his shoulder. I wonder if he knows who I am... Gald holds the pistol loosely under his cloak.

The man laughs.

"Been here only a few days? This ship just happened to wonder through the blockade, did it? Whatever hidden talents you are meant to have I suspect that lying isn't one of them."

Enda, he means that. He thinks you are meant to have hidden talents.

"Hidden talents? Said I could take care of myself. Never said I was no voodoo! I can hold my own in a fight though. Why do you seem so interested in me anyway? Or are you a voodoo yourself, tryin to read my mind? Hmmm?"

"Quaint," says the man. He reaches into his jacket and produces a piece of paper, which he shows to you.

"My name is Balek. I am an officially appointed keeper of the peace in this city. And your name?"

"Tianna. Self appointed seeker of something interesting in this hell hole. Pleased to meet you. Guess your like the Sherrif in these parts? Much call for your services round here?" Edna takes another swig of her drink. "Should you be drinking at this time of day? Or are you an off duty offical peace keeper?"

"That's entirely up to me," says Balek. "Though I should tell you that in a military emergency like this lying to an officer of the law is a serious offence, Edna. And it turns out I am very badly needed right now."

"Oh I'm sure it must be VERY serious. People do it often?"

"All the time. Only earlier today I had to deal with some very un-coperative Jedi. Maybe I should tell them where you are. Or if I do will they end up dead like all those people your friends killed last night? Maybe that's serious enough for you?"

Two things you have just noticed, Edna. First, the piece of paper he is now withdrawing describes how this person is NOT a policeman. He has very recently been appointed a de facto officer in return for a ton of cash. This person is not a policeman but a mercenary of some sort... or... yes... a bounty hunter.

The other thing is that that hand of is does not show up as alive in the Force. That whole arm is artificial.

"You think a girl like me has friends? What makes you think they are any relaion to me. What are Jedi doing here anyway?" Edna is beginning to become more and more wary of this man. She makes sure her senses are alert to detect any sudden danger from him.

"I know you have friends. I know you arrived recently on a ship that used to belong to Kuylen and I know you are here to kill Faylar."

He draws slightly closer to you, Edna.

"You're worth a lot of money to me dead, young one. But a whole lot more alive. And even more than that if I can find Kuylen. So you can make this a whole lot easier on yourself if you tell me where he is and come quietly with me."

"What makes you think I know where he is?" And for the record, they're not my friends. If I'd stayed with them any longer they'd have easily gotten all of us killed. Lone ranger's more my style."

"Well, whether they are your friends or not the money on you is just as good," says Balek. "I guess you aren't much use to me if you can't tell me where Kuylen is."

ONE thing you can sense from him that might be helpful, Edna... he is wary. A blatant man might have opened up on you by now but he thinks that would be very dangerous. He's hoping you will give in.
