"Yes, let all be welcome here!" booms a somewhat elderly Vesk man, dressed in the ceremonial robes of a priest of Hylax.
"You are surprised by my garb? Did you expect me to be but another follower of Damoritosh's ways of bloodshed? I followed them far too long myself. After obeying certain dishonorable orders on Vesk-3, I turned away, sought to atone, to be something better. It was at Hylax's temple on Nchak that I finally found the peace I sought."
"I heard news of the Scored Stars incident shortly after my ordination was complete. I saw an opportunity to help other Starfinders, new and old, find the peace I have come to know. And, of course, to follow the way of Hylax in making peaceful first contact with new worlds."
"Oh, and don't think me soft just because I've forsworn lethal weaponry. I can still throw a punch like in my younger days."
