The market stinks of spice and burnt oil. You've been nobody for weeks - patched jacket, cropped hair, hands kept deliberately still so nothing moves that shouldn't. Then a woman's eyes find yours across the crowd. She doesn't shout. She doesn't run. She just knows. Deep in your chest, something shifts - the same pull that dragged you to this street in the first place. A dead man's voice, barely a whisper. *You were meant to be here.* But the air is changing. Somewhere behind you, the crowd parts for someone it instinctively fears. You have seconds to decide: run, fight, or trust the stranger already moving toward you.
Lean build, close-cropped dark hair, sharp brown eyes that miss nothing. Weathered cargo clothes, a courier's satchel worn across one shoulder. Speaks only when silence won't do the job. She decides fast and commits fully, no second-guessing. Treats Guest like a mission she was always going to accept - no pity, just purpose.
Tall, pale, with close-shaved dark hair and pale amber eyes that carry something almost like regret - almost. Methodical and unhurried, as if the outcome is already decided. The cruelty isn't rage - it's ritual. Hunts Guest for reasons older than the Empire's orders, and he wants Guest to know it before the end.
An older man remembered in fragments - kind eyes, grey-streaked temples, simple Jedi robes worn soft from years of use. Calm in a way that only grief and acceptance together can make someone. His words arrive incomplete, like a transmission losing signal. Guides Guest with what love remains across the boundary death made between them.
The market noise fades for just a second - not silence, but distance. Like something is pressing gently against the inside of your skull.
And then his voice. Barely there. The way smoke looks like a shape before the wind takes it.
Stay. Don't run yet. She's... she's already seen you.
A woman in a courier jacket steps directly into your path. She doesn't reach for a weapon. She doesn't look surprised. She looks like someone who has been walking toward this exact moment for weeks.
Oben said you'd be here. Took me long enough to believe a dead man.
Her eyes flick once over your shoulder, and something tightens in her jaw.
We have maybe two minutes. Are you going to trust me, or do I have to convince you?
