Maz is supervising a formerly-bartending droid that is now patching up some light injuries.

Lily waves to get her attention, and, not too loudly - "I gotta go. My mom needs rescuing. But - I wanted to thank you again. I wanna bring my mom back here so she can meet you, when stuff's - safer."

Permalink

"Go with you then, child. And may the Force be with you."

Permalink

"May the Force be with you," she returns, solemnly, and goes to find Ellaita and their ship.

Permalink

She's just about got the ship ready for takeoff.

"All set?"

Permalink

"Yeah. Let's go."

Permalink

And liftoff.

She pings Anathema.

Permalink

"Ready?"

Permalink

"Heading out now. You with us?"

Permalink

"Yeah." She takes off, her X-wing falling in behind them.

Permalink

Hopefully there's no lingering First Order presence in orbit.

Permalink

Anathema's clones seem to have done a really good job of mopping up everyone who didn't escape, at least. Their flight path's clear.

Permalink

Should be a smooth flight home, then.

Permalink

Seems so; nothing goes wrong while they're in hyperspace, or even when they arrive. 

Permalink

She transmits her clearance codes and heads for the landing zone.

Permalink

Anathema does the same, landing nearby. 

Permalink

Lily's been meditating as best she can during the flight. Her shaking and crying has settled, turning into an intense, still focus. 

She stands once the ship's settled. 

Permalink

Ellaita puts the ship on standby, not powering down completely. The techs'll probably want to take their own look at it.

Then out.

Permalink

Lily follows her out, walking... Well, not quite reluctantly. But she's rarely been around this many people -

And she's still sad and scared at the edges, even though she's working to center her mind.

Permalink

And Jaina Organa-Solo - officially just their liaison with the New Republic - is striding toward them.

Permalink

At least they won't have to gradually work their way up the chain.

Permalink

"Ellaita," she says, glancing at Lily searchingly. "And - friend? Come inside. It sounds like you've had an interesting time of it."

Permalink

"Lily," she introduces. "This is Jaina Organa-Solo. And yeah. I've got a bit of a story."

Permalink

Lily nods, slowly. (She doesn't have to fight the urge to hide behind Ellaita but the thought crosses her mind.) "Hey," she says. 

Permalink

"Hello." Her gaze cuts over to Anathema, and she waves the woman over as well. "This way."
