EXT. CENTRAL TOWER/PENTHOUSE/DECK - DAWN
The first rays of light from Dania VII's three suns falls over the central tower of the Mandalorian complex, illuminating the outer deck of the penthouse. There on the deck, kneeling with her face to the suns, is Zull. Nearly nude save for a diaphanous nightgown which envelopes her body, she moves her hands around on her belly, eyes closed in deep meditation.
PRE VIZSLA: (O.S.) In communion?
Hearing the voice of her master, Zull opens her eyes.
ZULL: She is healthy and she is happy.
Turning around, she finds Vizsla standing behind her; in stark contrast to her own exposed form, he wears a heavy black robe which conceals his entire body save for his head and hands.
PRE VIZSLA: She will be among the first of the Mandalorian Knights born into our order. Her entry into this world will be cause for celebration.
Rising to her feet, Zull turns and steps up to her master.
ZULL: When I first found out I was with child, all I wanted was to cut her out of my body. Now, I can't imagine a future without her.
PRE VIZSLA: The sins of fathers must never be visited upon their children. Birth is a glorious aspect of life. It must always be cherished.
Reaching out, Zull takes Vizsla's hand.
ZULL: You gave her to me. (kisses his hand) You are her father.
Hearing those words, Vizsla can't help but to shut his eyes tight with emotional pain. Though Zull has come to terms with her pregnancy, Vizsla can never forget the horror that led to it or the shame he feels for the part he played in bringing it about.
