I nod to Luci, and she opens a channel to the Republic ship. “BT-7 Thunderclap, this is the... civilian ship Redshifter. You look to be in a bit of trouble. We might be able to end, but first tell us exactly who you are and what you are doing so far from Republic space.”

A few moment later, a voice cracks over the comm. “This is Captain Camden of the Thunderclap. We are here on a mission from Spec Force High Command. We were ordered to retrieve a prisoner from Kessel, but our ship came under attack and we were forced to flee into the Maw. Now we are lost and can not find a safe way out. Please, we would appreciate any help you could offer.” The sound of groaning metal can be heard, and the ship outside the viewport visibly shutters from stress. “Please! We don’t appear to have much time left!”
