![]() ![]() In the midst of that battle, Ram had met Lula Talisola, a Padawan from Starlight Beacon, and she’d been so poised in the storm of fighting - somehow a compassionate warrior and the very essence of what Ram imagined the Jedi were supposed to be - he’d realized he had to do whatever he could to help make the galaxy safe again, just like Lula was doing. Ever since the Nihil had attacked the Republic Fair on Ram’s home planet, Valo, he’d been trying to stay alive and keep balance in a galaxy that had seemed to go from peaceful to war-torn overnight. and that’s just in the past couple months!” ![]() Had things exploding all around me more times than I can remember. ![]() I’ve faced down Nihil, right?” he said, watching the core instead of his master. Ram scoffed, picked up the rusted metal casing around the core, then released it, letting the Force hold it midair in a slow spin. ![]() The old Ongree nodded sagely, stroking his face tentacles like he always did before saying something incredibly wise that would take Ram about eight years to untangle the meaning of. Since they’d left Valo, Ram’s droid had spent most of his time rummaging through Starlight’s scrap bin, looking for new upgrade parts. V-18 was gone as usual, otherwise he’d surely join in.

The flickering hologram of his master, Kunpar Vasivola, blinked back at him, concern in his wrinkled old eyes. With accusations flying and potential enemies in every shadow, the pair will have to work together to have any hope of bringing the truth to light and saving both worlds.“Hm?” Ram Jomaram looked up from the tiny reactor core he’d been taking apart and putting back together for the past. The harder they work to untangle the shadowy web of the investigation, the more complicated the conspiracy appears to be. She’s never met such a puffed-up, privileged party boy, and he’s never met a more self-serious, relentless do-gooder.
