STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- Rescue

That would be funny 😛

Rianna can kick Dak in her restless sleep if she so chooses! It does 100 damage and Dak bursts into flame somehow.

...

Trax reports when you have come up on the Magnus System, the flight there having been completely uneventful. Magnus Delta is the third planet in the system, most of which read as habitable but officially untouched.

Except Delta. There are power readings on the planet. Faint, but there.

Xavier will eat the crispy remains of Dak 😖hifty:

Xavier will instruct Trax to take them in slowly.

Hah, Rianna is so totally going to accidentally kick or hit Dak then 😛

The atmosphere of Magnus Delta is perpetually covered by a heavy cloud layer that Trax drops the ship through gently. Once it comes out of it and into the fog and mist that conceals much of the land, you receive a hail.

"Want to answer it?" Trax asks.

"Yes I do," Xavier says.

"Identify yourself and state your business or we shall retaliate," comes the message.

"We have someone who needs medical attention and you were the closet planet we could locate that had a signal."

"You answered part of it, at least. Who the hell are you?"

"I am Vandom Darfor and we are merchants. We got attacked by a small band of scum."

There is a short pause as the man on the other end weighs things over.

"You will land at the designated coordinates. You can refuel, get medical attention, and leave. Failure to comply with this will result in us sending a fighter to blast you down. Got that?"

"Cheery, friendly types, aren't they?" Dak says from the door to the cockpit, absently rubbing his side. "I think that Kath hound kicked me in her feverish sleep."

"Not surprised," Trax comments.

On the approach to the coordinates, the New Beginning flies over what appears to be a series of bonfires that have burnt through the fog. People are dancing around the bonfires.

"There are ships down there," Trax says. "I am picking them up on my sensors. No idea who they are; their transponders have been shut off. Or removed."

"...Bonfires. Why are there bonfires?"

"...don't like burning..." Rianna mumbles, still sleeping restlessly.

(why yes, I am bored)

Dak looks back at her. "Well, don't kick me anymore, and maybe we won't throw you in a fire..."

"Kill you first..."

"I'd like to see you try, lying there in my bed..."

"My bed."

"Uh-huh. Not after how poorly you performed..." Dak grins. This is the perfect time to mess with her: While she can't retaliate.
