Yavin System

The transport freighter Darkness Falls emerged from hyperspace near the planet of Yavin, a Gas Giant in the Yavin System. The ship bypassed the giant in favour of the famous moon of Yavin Four. Occupying the freighter was a team of two people and two passengers. One of them wore a jet black cloak, and the other wore a white cloak. One of them had a scragged face, with a full mop of black hair. The other was well clean and shaven with a head full of blonde hair.

"Yes, I am. No matter what we encounter, with you at my side, I'm sure we can both survive it." said the doctor in response.

"Very well then. Off we go." said the Knight.

With that the warrior and doctor left the ship behind and headed for the temple. The two sailors went back up the ramp of the ship and sealed it tight, settling down into what could be a long wait.
