The Dragon Head

Location: Ming's Geomancy Arts
The geomancy master poured a cup of tea for her customer, offering the beverage to him which he gladly accepted. Erden picked up the cup and took a sniff, smelling the fragrance and scent and determined that the tea leaves were of top quality. He smiled, taking a slow sip and tasted the bitterness of the dark beverage with his tongue.
"Oolong from Artisia. Not bad at all."
"Really? I'll be glad to give you a pack or two as a gift, Mr Tarkhan." The geomancy master smiled and made a gesture for her helper to retrieve some from the store.
"I thank you in advance then, Miss Ming. Now, regarding the dream that I have..."
"Yes, please describe it to me in detail."
Erden paused for a moment, frowning as he tried to remember the dream that had been haunting him for days. He could remember it vividly by now, as if he had been there all along as the dream unfolded in front of him.
"It was a sunny day in Tatooine. I know it's Tatooine because of the twin suns in the sky. I saw a hut, a clay house in front of me. As I looked through the window, I could see two children in the house. One was a girl, the other was a boy. The girl was staring through the window but would never notice my presence. She would squint her eyes for a moment before turning her back from the sunlight."
The Artisian paused, trying to make sure he had not missed out any details.
"The little girl was looking at the boy, presumably her brother. He was playing with some action figures and she walked over to him, picking up one of the toys to play when their mother called her name."
"What's her name?"
"If I am not wrong, it's Shery. The little girl is asked to go to some mansion and she protested loudly. She said she wanted to join Jonathan at the Jedi. Her mother told her in a stern voice that she could not, because she was a slave."
"What happens next?"
"I wake up every time after that."
"Hmm..."
Miss Ming bit her lips and looked at Erden for a moment, realising that she had absolutely no idea what the dream meant. Most of the time, her clients would tell her about tales about mythical creatures, unforgettable memories or horrifying experiences. Erden had just told her about a dream that did not involve him. He was a bystander, an observer watching a scene unfolding in front of his eyes.
"I am afraid I can't help you."
"What?!?"
"I am sorry. I really cannot interpret the meaning of your dream. It does not seem to bear any omen or message... perhaps it's just a memory."
"A memory? Whose? Why am I dreaming of someone's memory then?"
The geomancy master had no answer to his question, merely tapping on her datapad and displaying a map of the galaxy. Her fingers landed on the planet Tatooine and smiled.
"If you are that concerned about the dream, why not make a trip and take a look?"

"Darn it, why did our boss insist on coming here?" A Twi'lek complained loudly to his companion who was busy drinking from a tall glass of beer. "I can't believe we are here to chase some dream."
"Quiet..."
The two guards kept their mouths shut as Erden stepped out of his room, heading towards the bar area for his lunch. Credits had been spent to hunt for the clay house in his dream, but it had proven to be a difficult task.
