Re: Part 16 - Unsolved mystery
There is some angry muttering, and not a few pointed glares (at Rhijans, Shard, Haarmon and Barsh, not at Juragga). Then a voice says, "He isn't worth it. The Colonel will deal with him.", and a man on the left hand side of the mob turns away and stalks off, shaking his head.
To be followed a couple of seconds later by two more, then another three...
In less than twenty seconds, only the woman remains, her face set in a scowl of determination, her arms folded, and her feet apart. A stance which says that it would take three or four Wookiees to force her to move.
Then she too shakes her head, "I trust Kourene, not you lot." and she backs away, her eyes locked on Barsh. As she draws level with a side corridor, she ducks into it, and the group can hear her footsteps receding into the distance at a run. Leaving Barsh and his captors standing in the entrance to the detention block, with no guards in sight...
