Kresst's emotions were somewhat harder to judge from the outside than Mevenn's, but he was certainly not happy to have his fears manifest into reality, and in even worse ways than he had imagined. He had feared there would be turmoil if the clones had turned against the Jedi on a galactic scale, but for the Republic to have fallen...

"Eeruna, please take us out of Republic, or...Imperial territory." Kresst said, not bringing his eyes up to meet hers. In their current situation, he was not expecting any objections to taking that step right away. "We do what Master Kenobi told us to do. We trust in the Force. In each other. The war is over, and now we have to survive the galaxy it has created. The Republic defeated the Separatists, but it seems it was the enemy who was truly victorious."

As Kresst finished, the droid chimed in with slow, sad, and hesitant beeps. It informed them of other information it had been gathering from the holonet as they had watched Master Kenobi's message. The Galactic Republic had been officially restructured into the first Galactic Empire by now-Emperor Palpatine. The Jedi had been declared traitors after a supposed coup attempt, and after an impassioned speech by Palpatine, there appeared to be public support for the measure.
