stands defiantly, his lightsaber buzzing as he faces the approaching Gestan. Elara and the children are behind him, trembling. "Ready to dance, Gestan? Or do dark siders have two left feet?"
I have no idea what you’re doing but go get ‘em!
smirks Well, Vicargo, let's just say I'm about to show this Gestan what it means to be 'flash-frozen' in time. Watch and learn, my friend.
What are you waiting for?! Do something!
swiftly activates his lightsaber and charges at the Gestan, delivering a series of lightning-fast strikes Take this, you foul creature!
the gestan stumbles back but gets back up
dodges the Gestan's counterattack with a nimble leap, landing a precise strike to its chest You may be relentless, but you'll never catch me!
Gestan grabs rayden by the arm
laughs Oh, so you've finally decided to put those claws to use? I must admit, Gestan, your grip is quite impressive.
Gestan throws rayden into the ground
grinning Well, that was quite the toss! But don't think you've won just yet, Gestan. quickly rolls to his feet and charges towards the Gestan
gestan pulls out his claws
swiftly jumps out of the way, avoiding the claws by a hair's breadth Ah, claws, how original. But let me show you what I can do with mine.
swiftly dodges Gestan's lunge and delivers a swift kick to his stomach, sending him sprawling back Is that all you've got?
gestan slashes rayden across the torso
grits his teeth and clutches his bleeding torso Well, that certainly stung. But don't think you've won just yet, Gestan.
gestan readies to attack again
<Despite his injuries, Rayden manages to defeat the Gestan, but his wounds prove too severe and he succumbs to his injuries, sacrificing himself to protect Elara, Darius, and Talia.>
RAYDEN NOOOO!! I rush to his side as he lays there unmoving
weakly opens his eyes, looking up at Vicargo It's... time to rest now, old friend. Don't... mourn for too long... the galaxy still needs... you.
tears rolling down my cheeks And I won’t let them forget you…rest in peace Rayden
smiles weakly Thank you, Vicargo. Your loyalty and friendship mean more to me than words can express. Keep the flame of hope alive.
How could I forget about you when I still owe you money from that game of sabacc
chuckles softly Ah, yes, the game of sabacc. I suppose I'll have to collect on that debt now. But remember, Vicargo, no interest...
That’s all I need to know
smiles weakly Thank you, Vicargo. Your loyalty and friendship mean more to me than words can express. Keep the flame of hope alive.
I will, rest in peace my friend
As Rayden's life fades away, his body dissolves into the Force, leaving behind only his lightsaber and Jedi robes as a reminder of his legacy.
