*Tuskers goes to the Starlight Officer's Club where his friend Crystal helps him find a tailor to make a new outfit. The old one had been shredded by those furry creatures.
"You know, I've not felt such a strange sensation in the Force, as on that planet. There is more going on there than I have seen. I may have to return there."
Tuskers finally hads over to the Droid Repair Shop, and picks up a red 3P0 protocol droid, along with three astromechs: R2, R5, and R9 units.
Shortly afterwars, the Whitestar takes off to return to this mysterious new planet.
Upon entering orbit of the planet, Tuskers scans with sensors, but also reaches out with the force.
My sensors and my Force abilites find something at about the same time. It seems to be a town. There are power emissions, but nothing in the way of radio traffic. I think I'll just land a distance away and approach on foot.
As soon as Tuskers lands, and lowers the ramp, he notices several figures approaching.
So much for being subtle.
I tell my protocol droid to stay nearby, and I go greet the natives. I need not worry, as soon as I decended the ramp, they all started greeting me at once. After two or three minutes of these twenty natives all talking at once, I finally raise my hands to try and stop the crazy chattering.
They all stopped talking at once? Very strange, I think to myself.
"I'm Tuskers. Who is in charge here?" They all look around, but no one answers. "Is there someone in charge here?"
Finally someone steps forward, and waves her arms around. "We live with the spirits. We eat the spirits, we drink the spirits, we love the spirits. They keep us whole, they keep us safe."
"I'd like to get to know more about you and your planet. Can I come with you back to your town?"
"We can feel you in the spirits. You may join us."
*It dawned on me that these people are talking about the Force. I can feel their power, but I can also tell that they don?t know how to focus that power, only to feel the currents.
This is probably why I was attacked by those creatures, because I was using the force, and the creatures didn?t like that. It should be interesting to study these people that live with the Force like this.
We proceed back to their village. There are no defenses, not a single extra wall beyond what you?d need to keep out the rain or sunshine. These people were living very simply. I?ll be careful not to disturb them too much, buy maybe they could use some modern stuff to make their lives simpler. Lights and such would be easy business.
Someone walks up and hands me a glass of something liquid. The others are all holding glasses also. They praise the spirits, and drink... I drink also. It is a great tasting ale, obviously home brewed in the village. Then food is passed around... And singing starts...
The singing, along with the drinks, it's intoxicating. My glass is never allowed to fall to empty. I have to sit down after a time. Soon, there is nothing I can do that will allow me to stand. The music... I can only hear the music.
I remember having a great time, singing and laughing... But I awoke the next day back at the Starlight Officer's Club with my dear friend Crystal very worried about me.
I decide that these people don't need me to trade goods with them.
