SCENE 01 – As the Laughing Rancor speeds its way to complete the delivery for Emmani Graven, the ship is interdicted from hyperspace and the crew finds themselves 100,000 km away from an uncharted planet that has a vast array of various ships in orbit.
Checking radio chatter, they hear cantina music and people requesting shuttles down to the planet’s surface.

After making some calculations, it is determined that it will take at least a year to break free of the solar system before they can make the jump to light speed, so they decide to go planetside to investigate.

SCENE 02 – Without much of a choice, the crew enters orbit of the mysterious planet and makes contact; a shuttle ship is sent and Cas and Silas enter.

The inside of the shuttlecraft is luxuriously appointed, the crew wears all white, and there are many screens showing various sports; the console has a credit chip reader for placing bets. Cas is in heaven and places a 400 Cr wager on a pod race which is about to commence.

The shuttlecraft makes one more stop, picking up two men and four women; one man appears older than the other and the younger addresses him as ‘General’.

Making their acquaintance, they get the names of the men: HAN TERRAN, and MAX ZAPPAL.
HK-47 searches for their names and the party learns that Terran is a well-decorated Republic general and Zappal appears to be his aide.

The main event drawing so many people seems to be the championship fight of Gamorrean wrestling; the contender BNUKE will be fighting the current champion, GARTA.

SCENE 03 – Not knowing how or why they were interdicted, Cas and Silas go down to the planet and make plans to meet with the General for the big fight; they book rooms at the GALACTIC SUITES HOTEL and shop for appropriate clothing.

Whilst investigating the planet, Silas spies a woman looking around frantically. She approaches an employee of the gambling concern, and says that her friend has gone missing. The man explains that people lose track of time here and this is common, but the woman is adamant.

Then man leads the woman to administration building. Silas follows at a distance, not able to overhear the conversation. He waits outside of the building for an hour, but the woman never emerges.

SCENE 04 – The next day is the big fight; thousands of people have gathered from Sith, Republic, and Hutt space to watch the fight.
It is a tense affair, but Bnuke wins the title and makes some people a lot of credits.

The crew bids the General farewell and they depart once the interdiction field is lifted.
