"Elkar, I'm intrigued by your offer of employment. I feel as if today's events may be the `verse's way of telling me that my time of solitude and grief need come to an end. I have spent too long in a state of mourning and inaction. I must take care of first things first however. The remaining pirates that the good Commander has in custody are my foremost concern. I owe the locals a debt for their kindness and I feel I need to see these scum to justice before I can depart. If your offer still stands after that, I will gladly discuss details with you then."
Straightening to his full height the armored man faces the Imperial officer, "Sir my name is Reesla, and it was a pleasure to be of assistance. I've been living here in relative solitude amongst the creatures of this jungle for a few years now. The few times I've ventured into town to buy supplies I heard the whispers about these scum, and when I saw your ships get hit I hoped it would be an opportunity to help the folks who have been so kind to me here with their pirate problem. It seems I was right." Turning to face Elkar he continues, "Gentleman I fear I don't know much about ships, my talents lay in... other areas. But if there is anything I can do to help get your ships back in flying order I would gladly contribute my time and my hands."
The armored figure wipes his blades clean and retracts them into place. He slowly turns towards the man with the blaster pointed at him and in his calmest of voices says, "There is no need for that friend. I obviously mean you no harm." Turning to the Imperial Officer, confident that the jittery man with the blaster pistol will lower his weapon, he continues, "These scum have been preying on the weak and wounded here for some time. I appreciate the opportunity that your misfortune has provided me to clean house, although I'm a bit surprised to find an Imperial Officer aboard a ship such as this. Ser, will you be bringing the remaining pirate scum to Imperial justice?"
Spoiler: Adam: Just so I'm on the same page here, Reesla is after a Tarkin other than Patrick's character right? So my next step is to evaluate the situation, realize I was given faulty intel, and then try to take advantage of where I am. Perhaps try to get in with Patrick and use him as a stepping stone to my ultimate goal of avenging my master by killing his killer? |
