First Mission
6.Melona.31 ABY

The Helios Squadron. A rag-tag team of explorers with similar goals and a variety of skillsets.   We had been working together for over a month now, since our runin with the First Order. We haven't run into any of them lately, but I still dread they will recognize us even though there really shouldn't be a way for that to happen.   Drutwand has been a really good addition to the team. He and Nrrucrissh get along well, despite him being a Besalisk. It seems it's worked to help Nrruceissh to recover more since his last run in with Besalisks in the past.   The moment Sars said he found work for us, Drutward was the first one out the door to finish up preparations for the treck. I stayed behind with Nrrucrissh to finish repairs, while Sars busied himself with plotting our course.   The mission was to rescue an archeologist after getting lost exploring a planet called Sildor, near the Middian system. The mission paid well, enough to pay getting there and back, a little for each of us, and enough to reach the next big planet hub.   On the planet's surface, none of us really had much experience on uncivilized planets. Luckily for us, the atmosphere was breathable, and we brought plenty to eat.   Finding where the archeologist landed was the easiest part. His ship was left intact and the battery still running. It appeared he had landed safely as there were no signs of a struggle there.   Inside the ship we discovered he was there checking out where supposedly a growth of kyber crystals was hidden away. This led us to the cave he was trapped in. The fauna there was dangerous, even for Nrrucrissh. In the end, we extracted the archeologist safely.   In the end, he did not find the crystals. But the archeologist and I talked for some time. I admitted go him about my connection to the force, and he directed me towards a planet called Nigita.   This planet is supposedly a hub for force-sensitives... and there is a tree there for which I might be able to contact others through it. He unfortunately does not know where it exists, just that it does. This was a lead unexpected nonetheless.

Hutt's Wrath
22.Telona.31 ABY

Mokivj is a hostile planet. Around every corner there is someone looking for a quick scheme to make out with more than they already have. The tight grip of Yitajji's grasp has shown itself quickly over the last few days. He quickly endebts people by offering them lodgings, food, and clothes at gouged prices. The way he gets away with it is by keeping everything under 'promises', and his entourage of enforcers that protect his stashes.   He keeps the ships under tight lock and key, always guarded by several of Yitajji's enforcers. Even when he 'trusts' a captain to take a ship out, it's 'protected' by his men.   To make matters worse, it turned out one of the workers Gasocest trusted was a turncoat. Turns out they feared the Hutt enough to sabotage the entire plan. We were immediately taken in by the enforcers and forces behind bars while Yotajji contemplated what to do with us.   Fortunately, I had the bright idea to hide the saber when we first arrived at the planet. So at least I was not found with it on me. Unfortunately, it turns out the Hutt decided we couldn't be trusted to pay up what Gasocey owed, and were needed to be used to set an example for the rest of the workers.   Turns out Gasocest had an ally on the outside; one that didn't betray us. Nrrucrissh Brarsigg; a brown Trandoshan. Gasocest said if there was anyone we could trust in the galaxy; it was him. N fetched the saber and brought it to where we were kept. I used it to then cut us a way out, and we fled to one of the nearby ships.   That's when I discovered another force power I had. I could influence people's minds. There were two enforcers on watch, and I was able to concince them it was okay for us to board; and they listened without question.   We were lucky. There's no simpler way to say it. Unless, perhaps, it was the force that protected us? I'm still perturbed Gasocest hasn't questioned me about anything so far. He's just been kind enough to go along with it.   Well, now we are off towards Bakura. I have a feeling this will be an interesting flight.

New Stars
18.Telona.31 ABY

My first few steps on the soil of a far away planet. Six parsecs away. A man by the name of Sar Gasocest told me it would be more than 20 years before the light of my sun would reach this planet. That means when I look up at the sky towards my home, I'm looking at a time before I was even born. It feels like I am a long way away from home.   The planet of Mokivj is nothing like I had expected it to be. That's two days in a row I've tricked myself into expecting things when I should have known better. This planet was once a rich mining planet that exported cortosis; supposedly a rare mineral that could be made into invulnerable armor. Now it laid in ruins of nothing but lifeless plains and deserts. Apparently the mines that were once here are no longer in operation; and their destruction fifty years ago has desolated the planet. It would seem my stay here wouldn't be for as long as I had hoped it would be.   Most of my day was spent exploring the Yitajji's Post; a small settlement that's been set up by the Hutt it's named after. Sar showed me the ins and outs, and told me about Yitajji's plan to reopen the mines and make a fortune. He said it's been in the works for the last ten years, with him flying runs from planet to planet trying to pick up people willing to work on the project. He says the planet is highly unstable, and at every effort something goes wrong, someone dies, then the workers leave for fear of their lives. I couldn't blame them, and neither could he.   Sar's told me of Bakura, a planet he would frequent very often, and how he and a few of the workers were planning on leaving Yitajji's maddened ideas behind in the coming days. The problem is; he owes a lot of credit. Six figures worth. Now at first I didn't know why he would be telling me all this, nor why he told me he was planning on stealing one of his ships. I wasn't ready to commit to theft like this... but, Sar told me he knew about the saber I carried with me. He threatened that if I told Yitajji about his plan, that he'd deny everything and turn me in as payment.   Even still; he offered for me to come with him and the others. After the nerve to blackmail me! Is that what the galaxy is like away from home? The galaxy sure feels different away from home. And yet, it's just more of the same.

Unexpected Journey
17.Telona.31 ABY

Yesterday I woke up in my bed, expecting to go to work stocking Bantha Tracks for my usual 12 credits. As it would turn out, I never even made it to work. My world turned upside down. And today, I wake up with pain shooting up my back from sleeping on the cold metal floor of the interior of this transport shuttle. I was surprised mom found this shuttle that charged me only 500 credits for travel to Mokivj. I was talk they have mines there, so I should be able to find some short work for a few days; just long enough to pay for wherever it is I'm going next.   Despite me paying for this service, I was put to work onboard the ship (a Taylander shuttle if I am remembering that correctly)... which I honestly should have expected. It wasn't bad, though. Everyone on board treated me surprisingly well. I assume most of them weren't natives to Batuu. The work wasn't bad, either. They had me work on a lot of different maintenance things... spaceships surprisingly aren't all that different from from groundcars. They had me reseal several hatches, I replaced the landing gear and cargo loading hydraulics, cleaned out the engine coolants; that last one was the most difficult. I found I actually quiet enjoyed the work; despite the obvious setback I had to deal with....   I've been meaning to sit down and plot a course... I'm still not entirely sure where I am going, or what I am doing. There's just so much work to do on this ship I never have any downtime to myself. I suppose once we arrive I'll have more time to think to myself and get some more work done. I still don't understand everything that happened... I can control the Force? If I can heal... what else can I do? When no one's around. I've been trying different things. So far nothing's worked. What exactly did the Jedi teach? This would all be so much easier if I had a master helping me out. Like Ahsoka did. I'm the same age as her now when she saved grandma.   Despite all of the problems along the way, I'm looking optimistic. For having no formal education, teachings of the stars, or probably any other important skills most people say you should have before setting out on such a mission... I think I'm doing quiet well. Here's to the unexpected journey.

Birthday Celebration
8.Selona.22 ABY

Today was my most favorite day ever! My best friend ----- came over and celebrated with us. All morning grandma was telling us stories of the time when ------ ---- came to Batoo and saved her. She talked about how the galaxy then was filled with the Force, and how there once was a group of people called the Jedi Order who helped keep the galaxy in balance and harmony, and that the person who saved her was one of those Jedi.   I so badly want to be a Jedi now! Being able to control things with my mind. I will finally be strong! And having a lightsaber would be so cool, I could chop up anything I didn't like and defend home from everything bad. ----- says I can have the powers as long as she can have the lightsaber though. I wonder if people without Force powers can use lightsabers?   The rest of the day ----- and I went out reenacting grandma's stories. We had a lot of fun, and made plans that one day when we get older, we will go explore the stars and find ------ ---- and learn to use the Force and lightsabers together.
