"Agreed." Kresst remarked. Mevenn's distinctly emotional reaction was quite unlike a Jedi, and the fact that Kresst showed no objections was a detail that she might notice. Though, for the moment, Kresst was ready to head back to his quarters and rest. "I simply hope that the news we find upon our arrival is not as grim as I fear." He added before taking his leave.

Given how far into the Outer Rim they had been, it took some time for the ship to even get close to Republic space once more, and they all had a chance to sleep and clear their minds as much as possible. For Kresst, he was able to keep himself content by acknowledging that the answers they needed, whatever they might be, would become available to them soon enough. Until then, no amount of worry or thought would improve the situation. 

The ship was uncomfortably silent the next morning, unlike their journey from the core. Kresst remembered being irritated by the noise a few of the clones had been making when they were given a chance at free time, but now that silence he had desired was now just a harsh reminder of what had transpired. He knew that if he was thinking about it, then it was certainly magnitudes worse of a reminder for Mevenn and Mach. 

It was easy to tell when the ship had dropped from hyperspace, but Kresst did not move with any particular haste until he heard Eeruna's voice over the ship's comms. "Master Jedis...or, well, everyone, you need to get up here and see this. Right away." 

Kresst had already been somewhat close to the cockpit, so with some force-assistance, it did not take him long to rush up to the cockpit. Eeruna was waiting, looking at a small hologram from a paused message her droid was projecting in front of them. Kresst recognized the man to be Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, but he was not sure if he should believe it to be an encouraging sight, especially given Eeruna's grim expression.
