    The Supreme Chancellor was deep in thought. Lately, his mind had been returning far too often to the sorcerer from Jabiim. At first, reports of a new organization of Force-sensitives had merely prompted him to make a note to investigate them later—potential threats were not something one left...

    A couple of minor incidents occurred before our departure. Arvik ran into another Mandalorian and took the evening off. He came back late—and unusually thoughtful. Meanwhile, that same evening, while our jet-powered armored infantryman was off bonding with a fellow adherent of the Resol'nare*...

    Once my mercenaries joined us, the Hammerhead left Coruscant for Corellia for scheduled maintenance and upgrades, six hundred thousand credits landed in my account, and preparations for our next adventure began. Arvik spent a couple of days prowling the shittier cantinas of the lower levels...

    I liked the opera. I liked the Supreme Chancellor as well. A warm, personable sort of man—or at least that was how he presented himself. He came across as an engaging conversationalist who knew a great deal about the galaxy, and he spoke without the slightest trace of arrogance or condescension...

    The Temple was beautiful. Not merely for its architecture, its vastness, or the elegance of its interiors, but for the lightness and tranquility that seemed to suffuse the entire place. Serenity lingered in the air, soaked into the very walls of the majestic structure; everything around me...

    By evening, I was already itching to go looking for adven— uh... to get acquainted with this planet! Knight Chatak had kindly warned me not to poke around the capital's middle levels, and especially not the lower ones—supposedly, they were crawling with criminal scum. I desperately wanted to...

    I could say, "We entered the atmosphere and landed," but... Coruscant... It amazed me. Sure, there were less printable ways to put it, but I was so impressed I didn't even bother coming up with any. A city-planet. But Dozdronogul take it, not merely a city-planet—which was already staggering...

    "All right, flying Dug, go join your friends," I said, lowering my little "balloon" to the deck. He promptly took his place among the small group of his "colleagues." "Lady Hook, be so kind as to tell the rest of the crew to stop resisting. Explain that the new captain guarantees that anyone who...

    The old wizard sat behind his desk, wrapped in his robes, fixing the boy before him with a stern gaze. The lad had only just passed the entrance examinations for the Academy of the Greatest Heroes. Young and painfully thin, with clear eyes touched by a faint, lingering sadness, the boy shifted...

    The pirates preparing to cut the shuttle open to get inside were somewhat surprised when, immediately after landing, the small vessel's ramp began to lower. Some of the boarding party even laughed delightedly—the shuttle's crew had apparently decided to surrender in hopes of making their fate...

    We returned to the ship in less than stellar spirits. A recording of today's Senate session, where Alto had spoken, cheered us up a little. The leader of the rainy planet presented the venerable assembly of bribe-takers and embezzlers with a report on Jabiim's use of humanitarian aid, which...

    There were plenty of cantinas around the spaceport, catering to every budget and every purpose. We picked a respectable place where we could get something to eat and drink while watching pretty girls dance. There was even a warning posted by the entrance: the dancers were there to be looked at...

    Tholme hurried toward the spaceport. He had nearly managed to stop the kidnappers from abducting Lon Secura's heir. Almost. The damned Devaronian had somehow managed to dig up two Morgukai and bring them in on the kidnapping. The brief fight ended with one opponent knocking Tholme's lightsaber...

    Shmi spent three hours tinkering with the "minor problem." Within the first twenty minutes, I'd pestered her with so many questions that she started narrating what she was doing just to get ahead of me. Incidentally, the woman was downright adorable when she lost her temper during repairs...
