Jeni decides that before leaving for Verdanth to close in on Hossk, she must return the sack of crystals to Isis. She calls Zero from across Amnar’s dwelling, where the droid was busy scanning objects out of what could be described as curiosity. Zero beeps his assent as he accompanies Amnar and Jeni out of the building into the streets of Raxus Prime.

Cut to the spaceport. Amnar and Jeni split ways outside the landing pad zone after she tells him the coordinates of her destination. Amnar goes to his ship with the intention of following Jeni’s. His vessel is a modified R-41 Starchaser with a pair of concussion missile launchers bolted onto the wings to bolster its already substantial combat capabilities. It packs a heftier punch than Jeni’s craft, a Kashyyyk-produced “Agr” fighter. Her ship, however, bears nigh-unbeatable maneuverability, only further amplified by the Force-sensitivity of its pilot.

Jeni has made all the necessary flight checks and docked Zero into her craft when she sees that her navcomputer has received new holo-messages. She opens the first recording. A tiny hologram of Luke tells her to come home to Corellia because they “need to talk”.

Jeni purses her lips in disgruntlement. Then she views the next recording. In it Luke says that he has felt a tremor in the Force and implores Jeni to return to Corellia immediately.

With reluctance, Jeni messages Amnar on her commlink. She says they will have to make a stop at Corellia before continuing on their mission.

The two fighters lift off from the spaceport and break atmosphere. The persistent soot and haze of the junkyard world gives way to the tranquil void of space. Inside of a minute, their distance from the planet’s gravity well allows Jeni and Amnar to jump into hyperspace, putting Raxus Prime behind them for good.
