The Wretched Prodigal Son
The moment my ship, The Dirge, dropped out of hyperspace I knew this adventure in stealing was a bad idea. All around the planet of Demonsgate was a mass fleet of warships, none of which looked entirely welcoming. Now I'm no crack pilot, I mean even the lowliest pilot could probably shoot me out of the sky, adding a mark of a kill to the side of their ship. But I knew my ship, sorta, and was able to tuck and roll, dodge and weave, and dive headlong toward the surface of Demonsgate. Luckily for me, what appeared to be a potential nose-dive crash landing turned into a skidding halt across the unpleasant surface of the planet.
Shutting my ship down, leaving only the basics in stasis, I quickly departed my ship with lightsaber in hand ready to fight to the death. But what I saw instead of foes were several two legged, slimy creatures that croaked a few times and went back to catching buzzing insects with their extremely long tongues. Yes, I was jealous. Not about the slimy part but about their lengthy tongues. If I had a tongue that long, I could, er, nevermind.
Taking stock of my surrounding area, and feeling that I had won the first battle, I replaced my weapon back on my side. "Chalk one up for the bad guys," I said pumping my fist into the air. Again I was rewarded with more croaking. I looked down at the creatures and shrugged. "Whatever. Oh look! Here comes extinction," I said stepping through them. They responded with more annoying croaking and that is why I failed as a comedian. No respect!
Now back to the story.
I knew there was a phrik mine somewhere, but due to my unfortunate change of landing spots I had to search for it. I brought out my datapaad, the nifty one that comes with a free map app, and mentally frowned that it had somehow became damaged. I placed my hands on my hip, trying to think how that happened. Well, I decided if I walked far enough that I would discover this mine.
So that's what I did, walking tall to the soothing sounds of croaking behind me.
