A Detour on the Road to Fate

[Corinna Synn]

Location: Tatooine ​

She awoke to an unforgiving heat and familiar whispers in her ear.

"Good for nothing. The lot of 'em."

Blue eyes opened into the glare of two bright suns. Her eyes immediately shut, a mumbled curse slipping past her lips. A hot wind rolled in, causing warm orange sand to brush along her face. Spitting bits of sand from her mouth, Corinna's eyes reopened. The glare of the two foreign looking suns was still present, but tolerable. She sat up slowly, the sand that had been starting to pile up on top of her body falling to the ground. Her eyes followed the stretch of orange sand as it extended out for miles towards the horizon.

Where was she? How did she even end up here? The last thing Corinna could remember was boarding a ship to take her off Dromund Kaas and...

"You brought it down," the familiar voice whispered in her ear. "Take a good look behind you."

Corinna blinked and shot a glance over her shoulder. The wreckage of the ship she had boarded sat half buried in the sand. She looked forward again and the sea of sand that stretched onward towards the horizon. Why did she bring the ship down? And on what planet? This didn't make any sense.

"Of course it makes sense," the familiar voice replied. Corinna looked to her left where she found her father, the one she had killed and left at the bottom of some random lake, approaching. "That's all you are. Senseless destruction."

She tore her gaze away from the man who shouldn't be here and stared ahead at the sea of sand again. She waited for the voice to continue, but received only silence. Corinna looked to her left again but saw no corpse. Just sand. Sand...sand...and the wreckage of a ship behind her. Slowly, Corinna rose to her feet. She had no idea where she was, or why she had brought down the ship that was taking her to her destiny. But she would find her way off this foreign planet. She would find another ship to take her where she needed to go.

So Corinna started walking towards the horizon, not bothering to cast one glance back at the sand burying the wreckage of the fallen ship.

Kalyn had just gotten a job to go find some lost ship, thanks to acurate orbital calculations, she narrowed down the zone in which it was lost to about a 10 kilometer radius. that was still alot of ground to cover, she was making low passes over the area, the local authorities wanted survivors, and would pay well for their safety.
"R7 keep scanning for life signs, someone better be out here." She said.
Kalyn kept flying in her ship low over the ground, eventually she found the wreckage, and what from her perspective looked like footprints, she started heading in the general direction of them, hoping to find a survivor.

She didn't know how long she had been walking. In all honesty, she hadn't been keeping track of the time. The two suns of this foreign planet continued to glare their unyielding heat as she kept walking towards the horizon. The sea of sand seemed to stretch on forever, but there had to be some kind of civilization tucked away somewhere. So Corinna kept walking, not bothering to look back or think about the gaping hole in her memory. She needed to focus on finding someway off this planet. She needed to get to Korriban so she could finally start her Sith training.

"So you can become another one of them," the familiar voice whispered again in her ear.

Corinna's blue eyes narrowed at the horizon. "You're awfully loud for a dead man."

She waited for a response, but heard nothing but warm winds blowing orange sand across the hot terrain. For awhile that was the only sound, until the sound of a rumbling ship engine brought Corinna to a slow halt. She turned her attention away from the horizon and tilted her head up towards the sky where she found a low flying ship approaching.

Finally. She seemed to have come across some life upon this foreign planet.

As Kalyn flew over the ground, she finally came upon what looked to be a living creature, probably the lone survivor by the looks of it. Kalyn set down her ship a few meters away and walked down the ramp. Upon closer inspection the survivor appeared to be a human female, looks like a ship crash survivor alright.

"Well miss this appears to be your lucky day, local authorities have payed me to look for survivors of your crashed ship, and you appear to be the only one im afraid, ill take you to where you were going once we check in with the local authorities. There all they need is a quick psyche evaluation." She said

Kalyn said this rather bluntly, wanted to get it over with, she did not like exposition.

Corinna watched as the ship hovered above the desert before slowly descending onto the orange sand. Was it luck that someone had managed to find her out here in the middle of this sea of unending sand? She knew nothing about the planet she was on so she knew nothing about what any locales would be like. If this person was even a locale to begin with.

The doors to the ship opened and Corinna silently watched as an armored human female walked down the ramp of the ship. Corinna remained silent as the armored stranger approached. She watched as the woman took a good look at her and it was only then when Corinna realized how pathetic she must look. She had boarded a ship from Dromund Kaas wearing civilian clothes which were now ripped and dirtied thanks to the crash.

"I am the only one," Corinna replied, looking up at the armored female. The woman was taller than her by a few inches.

A harsh laughter whispered in her ear. "Because you brought down the ship."

She didn't dare look to her left where she knew the corpse of her father would be standing. Instead she kept her focus on the woman who seemed to be her only ticket off this desert and back to some kind of civilization. However, Corinna was not a fan of checking in with the local authorities. She had a gaping hole in her memory about the crash, and she was the only survivor. It wouldn't take the local authorities long to come up with an idea of what happened.

"I would prefer if we skip the local authorities, and you just take me to a spaceport where I can get off this planet," she continued. "By the way, where are we? I don't remember much of the crash."

Kalyn was fine if she wanted her privacy, all she needed was a writen statement anyway.
"Thats fine, i just need your signature then, and i could fly you to wherever you need to go, i dont have anything better to do with my time. And your on tatooine by the way." She responded.

Tatooine. She remembered hearing that name in passing once or twice while growing up. Never really researched the planet much, but it looked like there wasn't much to learn. It seemed to be just one giant planet of sand.

A tinge of relief swept through the young woman's body at the armored woman's response. "Very well. I'll provide you with my signature. All I need is for you to drop me off at the closest spaceport. I'm sure I'll find a ship headed to where I was supposed to go before my ship crashed." Corinna took a step towards the armored woman. "I'm Corinna, by the way. Your name?"
