Which the Jedi is polite enough not to overtly check for poison!

Permalink

Good of him. (It's not poisoned.)

She's quiet without being distant, for the rest of the meal, and then they can get going again.

Permalink

Good.

Ekkreth seems a little bit more at ease when they're on the move.

Permalink

Reasonable.

Pradnakt keeps the lunch stop short, and calls another halt just as it's starting to feel like time for the evening meal. "My place is up that way," she says, gesturing to the thin trail making a fork in the road heading back the way they came. "Refor is a couple hours further on; the road runs right through it. There isn't a hotel, but they should be able to tell you who has rooms for rent if you stop by the town hall or the library."

Permalink

"Refor is the name of the town?"

Permalink

"Mmhmm."

Permalink

"Okay then."

Permalink

"Daisy'll be out there tomorrow or the next day; she'll let you know when we'll be ready to have you come out. It'll be least disruptive if she can find you in the library."

Permalink

"That won't be a problem," she says, shooting the Jedi a fond look.

Permalink

"All right. Oh, and don't mention me, that'll clue them in that something's up."

Permalink

"I kind of assumed that went in hand with not being noticed as Force sensitives, yeah."

Permalink

Nod. "Exactly. Okay, then, I'll see you in a few days."

Permalink

"See you."

Permalink

And off she goes up the trail.

Permalink

And the Jedi and the Sith go off towards the town.

Permalink

It's a small town, though maybe a bit bigger than what's common on Tatooine. Most of the shops, plus the library and the town hall, are clustered on the main street, with houses and farmland surrounding it. The library is rather impressive for a town this size, but closed, as is the town hall, but the general store seems to be open.

Permalink

Karzel asks about room for rent.

Permalink

The bored teenager minding the shop directs him to one of the nearby houses; knocking on its door produces a middle-aged woman with a noticeable limp. "Hello?"

Permalink

"Hello! We're in town for a few days and were directed to you?"

Permalink

"Oh, yes of course. One room or two?"

She quotes them a reasonable price for the room, and offers to make them breakfast and dinner as well for a small fee.

Permalink

One room, and he pays the fee.

Permalink

And she produces a room key and a house key for them and calls a droid downstairs to help them with their luggage. "Have you eaten tonight?"

Permalink

"Not yet."

Permalink

Nod. "I can make you some sandwiches, then, or I can heat up some leftovers if you'd rather; I think the shepherd's pie will stretch to two, or I have chicken and biscuits with gravy."

Permalink

"Whatever's most convenient."
