leans in, whispering Did you look at the new escape routes for the Laniss locals?
I did, but it isn't going to be easy. This Mangalorian is brutal.
nods, points to a holographic map The key is finding a weakness in their defenses. We need to find a way to bypass their security and disable their weapons.
Those tusks of theirs are weak points. The Mandalorians use the same armor.
narrows eyes, crosses arms Are you suggesting we target their tusks? How do we even reach them without getting slaughtered?
leaning forward, voice urgent Tell me now. What's your plan?
"With my skills and your wit, Shaniya, we'll have a good start. My vehicle can create a distraction while I get in close. If I can get behind the beast, I should be able to cut off its tusks."
raises an eyebrow, leans back Cut off their tusks? Are you sure that will be enough to disable them?
They will bleed out. At least for a while. Enough time for us to save the rest of the people there.
grabs a datapad, tapping on the screen Let's see the specifications of this Mandalorian's armor.
nods, scrolling through the datapad Okay, according to these specs, the tusks are made of a rare minerals. We'll need to gather some more information on how to extract them without causing too much damage to the surrounding tissue.
The crew can start scanning while I go down to the planet.
taps her fingers on the table, thinking Okay, here's what we'll do. You'll head down to the planet in a smaller shuttle, disguising yourself as a local.
leans in closer, speaking quickly While you're there, gather as much information as you can about the Mandalorian's movements and weaknesses.
Of course. jumps into the vent I'll blend in as well as someone like me can.
<As WhimsicalCanyon navigates through the streets of Laniss, they are spotted by a group of Mandalorians and taken captive>
Laniss Local walks up. Hey, where's your leader at? I need to speak with him.
raises an eyebrow, crossing her arms So you think you can just waltz in here and demand to speak with our leader? Who are you, exactly?
A passerby who has important news. This guy is acting shady. points to one of the Death Watch Troopers.
leans in closer, eyeing the Death Watch Trooper Is that so? Well, let's see if this passerby has any useful information. whispers to WhimsicalCanyon
leans in, whispering WhimsicalCanyon, keep playing along. See if you can get close to their leader and eavesdrop on their conversation.
convinces the Death Watch Leader to join his cause
whispers urgently Good job, WhimsicalCanyon. Now, listen carefully. Find out everything you can about their plans and weaknesses.
It's hard being a sith sometimes manipulates the leader's mind to make him attack another Death Watcher for shooting a trooper.
grabs the arm of a passing Death Watcher Excuse me! We've just received word that there's a traitor among us. Have you noticed anything suspicious lately? Death Watcher: hesitates, looking around nervously Well, there's this newcomer who showed up yesterday. He seems a bit off.
Sounds like my kinda guy. Where is he?
leans in closer, speaking quickly We don't have much time. Take me to this newcomer immediately. And be careful, he might be dangerous.
We need to send a message. shoots the window out in a storage room There, record the transmission and tell the Mandalorians that Sith Lord Supreme Emperor is coming for them.
watches the transmission being sent, excitement in her eyes Good job, WhimsicalCanyon. Now we just need to make our escape.
That was stage four on the ground. Get ready to leave.
quickly scans the area for any threats Stay close to me, WhimsicalCanyon. We need to move quickly and quietly.
they escape Now to head back to the ship and then to the Republic Cruiser.
pulls out a blaster, checking its charge Keep your guard up, WhimsicalCanyon. We can't afford any more slip-ups.
they board the ship and head back to the UCN 748 I could use a drink.
<As they celebrate their successful mission, Shaniya suddenly collapses from exhaustion and is rushed to the ship's infirmary.>
Shaniya?! he runs in the medbay. Daktor, what's happening?! She's been pushing herself too hard!
weakly It's... It's nothing, WhimsicalCanyon. Just a little... fatigue. I'll be fine.
