"I'm quite surprised they managed to enlist her services," Rand says, regarding Katai's appearance in the Golden Tower. "She would be the 'tactical' trooper you warned us about, I presume."
Does Ascar's diplomatic vessel look large enough to take Xavier's dying ship aboard?

Galder isn't relaxed by any means, but he can't help admitting that Ascar showing up does provide some relief. They aren't going to sit stranded in the nebula until the Jedi or the Bureau or both show up. Still...
"Rand, how're we feeling?" Galder asks. "We out of danger yet?"

Azarl is just happy that nobody is shooting at him. He definitely wants to work on his piloting skills. He is naturally very dexterous, might as well improve his ability to work his own fighter.

"Are we telling everyone here about what we learned from Merik?"- Whispers Gallador to Rand."Perhaps Ascar could teach us that technique he used against Adelmo..."

"Patience," Rand will respond to Gallador, probably over the comms in Xavier's ship and Galder's ship. "There will be time for discussion in a moment. I want to be certain we're out of danger before we discuss that particular matter."

Oh yes, we need to save Xavier's ship, does it seem possible?
"Our biggest ship is badly damaged, do you have some personnel or equipment we can use to make repairs?"Gallador asks Ascar.

No, there's no way it will fit, I am afraid- Ascar can take the fighter craft but not something of that size.
Main power is going out on Xaxier's ship. The reactor has taken a hit- it will never restart.
-
"I imagine she was indeed," says Ascar. "Interesting as it is, though, it doesn't help us with our main issue. Where- and indeed what- is the Syphar n Kalar? In connection with which- who is trying to kill you, presumably because you represent competition in that search? You've gone to a lot of trouble; did you get anything?"

"Is there anyway we can continue this discussion on your ship?" Xavier asks Ascar.

Ascar will be glad to! It's probably a lot safer; he rather feels you guys should shut your remaining ships down and stow them on-board his.

That way they are not giving off a signal he could possibly get us out of here in his ship without the Bureau being able to scan us?
Anyways Xavier is willing to go on board. He will look to Eller, Relle, and Gallador to see if they have any thoughts.

"Are you surprised to see Ascar here?" Asks Gallador Eller as they enter his ship.

Before docking, Rand will call over to Xavier.
"You're going to have to abandon ship," Rand reports. "The New Beginning has found its end."
Once aboard, Rand will respond to Ascar's inquiry about the discovery.
"Galen Merek certainly sent the bounty hunters our way," Rand says. "But he claimed that an individual coerced him into doing so... Larios Kuylen."

Galder will promptly burst into flame.

The power of SURPRISE AND RAGE!
-
Shall we carry this on on Ascar's ship? With the other ships powered down they indeed do not give off a transponder signal.
Before you though- what to do with The New Beginning? It can't be saved.
Eller was all ready for the escape pods. She did not not specifically sense Ascar (he's pretty slippery with the Force), though she had a fair idea safety was waiting.

Is there anything Xavier can salvage from the ship that could useful additions to our supply inventory?

We should probably destroy it totally, if it's reached that point. Salvage some parts to fix up Galder's and Azarl's ships. We will be needing a new transport ship though...

Yay noodles!!!! Xavier will take it as a win and eat them in front of everyone else.
So if it can't be saved Xavier should probably wipe any references to destinations it has visited, essentially wipe the hard drive. Then perhaps Xavier should rig the ship to blow up just to be safe or have Ascar's ship blow it up?
Either way Xavier will be the last one to leave his ship. He walks the halls of The New Beginning one final time. Letting his hands slide along the panels and buttons along the walls. The echo of his footsteps resonate along the abandoned rooms. They only add to realization he can not make her whole again. His ship is now a floating corpse.
This was the ship that took him on adventures he never dreamed of growing up at the Jedi Temple. The missions and stories he's gathered while riding in this vessel will echo with him for all time. From Eperius to Newhaven to that Pirate Empire he will never forget. Even the time they had to hid a body Galder killed on his ship. Xavier hopes they cleaned that out. He spent so many years trying to not to feel anything it's amazing how a collection of metal, wires, and parts can move him to sadness.
It was a good ship Xavier but all things must go to dust at some point. You can't fix everything.
Xavier contemplates his darker side's words, "It was a great ship. It deserved better than this... I may not be able to save it but I will make sure the lessons I've learned on it don't go unused. I will fix this broken galaxy."
He leaves the ship to its grave, can of noodles gripped firmly his hand.

"We can steal you a new one," Relle says. While she personally thinks this wouldn't have happened if Xavier had been a better pilot, she can see that Xavier isn't thrilled about this. "We'll get a better one, and you'll learn to fly it better than you ever flew this bucket of bolts. How'd you find this thing anyway? I'm surprised it stayed together for so long."
