"Well, we found him in the town of em-rrdet-bon in the Valley of Shadow. He was singing while people hammered metal. He didn't know you were here but was excited to meet you when we told him.

Hmm... I heard that once he told everyone in a town to leave because there was going to be a lot of water soon."

That's plausible, at least. Weird, taking an interest in primitive crafts, but plausible - maybe the guy also appeared here out of nowhere and is trying to build the tech base up? But why singing, then?

Well, he has a different angle to try, maybe it'll turn up something more useful. "How did you find him to tell him?"

A realistic answer here would be that they sent messengers to all the towns in Lei, but unfortunately the timeline doesn't work out, so the story has to rely on a bit of luck. "One of my friends had heard from her sister that he had been seen in another town in the Valley of Shadow, so when you asked, I knew that he was near there, and that we could find him by sending messengers to check all the possible towns."

It's not at all implausible that the Force is arranging for them to meet up, and it's most likely a good sign - if their Jedi is a Sith, or fallen, or something, the Force wouldn't steer them right into each other like this. "The Force might do that," he nods. "That tells me something good, if it did. Do you know if your Jedi has anything like my music, or used to? - do you know where he started, as a baby?"

"The Force might do what?

They say he sings very well. Maybe he has music like you, or used to, but if you don't know about music like that, the story sounds like it can't be correct, so people who heard the one story later said only that he sings very well.

I don't know where he was born."

"The Force might have brought him there, and made your friend's sister hear about him. It wouldn't do that if it was bad for me to see him, I think. People who can see the Force are... I don't have the word..." He gets a handful of dice and demonstrates that if he wants high rolls he'll tend to get them, not every time or even often enough to be obvious but more often than chance, if you're paying attention, even if Mirana is the one rolling.
