We set course for Bespin. Andrew works on Armor Mark 1.2-Z for Zeak. Initially, Layloo meditates with Luke, but senses that while her darkside point is gone, Luke has gotten darker. So she does the cleansing cerimony with Luke. We arrive in Quamar and get news that the Empire is just outside the Bespin system. We board a Mon Calamari cruiser. Luke updates his commander while Layloo and R2 tour the ship. She gets along with R2 famously. Luke pulls Layloo aside to an interrogation room to bounce thoughts off her. Emperor Sate Hestage has offered a proposal; In exchange for him being allowed a posh retirement, he's willing to hand the empire over (vital info, open announcement of Alliance's legitimacy, etc). But the Alliance would need a legitimate government to really be ready for this. The idea has been brought up that Leia be the legitimate heir of Darth Vader. Is it really a good idea for her to be the next "Palpatine"? // Back on the ship, R2 reports that Creon has been found, deep inside imperial territory as a biological hazard. Just so happens he is kept in the rear of the invading fleet back at Bava. The group decides to go rescue Creon. During the trip, Luke reveals the thought about Leia being the next empress. Andrew checks that Sate Hestage has the backing of the warlords (it is strained). // We run into a moon. Andrew orders the parts be jetisoned to make us look more like a crashed ship.
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Sate_Pestage/Legends proposes selling out the Empire to the Alliance in exchange for immunity and wealth.
Destination:
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Bavva/Legends because Creon is held there.
Controlled by
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Delak_Krennel who is attacking Bespin area.
Luke no longer in charge of the defector Imperial fleet.
Tim: Ugly to Byron. Make annoyingly good points about Leah like I predicted. Pretty good plan with jedisoning the junk. Still working on projects for teammates. I feel like we accomplished a lot. We got to Bespin. 2 huge news drops. Acting Emperor's offer, Creon found. Appreciate that you rolled for R2's astrogation. Wound up with a neat little situation. It's cool to keep NPCs in check. Because GMs *can* it's tempting to have NPCs always succeed. Lotta good stuff between Lelu and Luke / R2. No bad.
Byron: Good, game. There's a part of me that doesn't want to give this good, 'cause I dunno where this is going. Not necessarily irrelevant shit getting thrown at us. Bad? Partially because of the design. Liz didn't have much to do. Ugly to Zeke for agreeing with Andrew.
Liz: Do feel like we got a lot accomplished. Lotta good character moments. Surprised that Luke suggesting that Leah take the throne. Bad Zeke didn't get to shoot things. Ugly to Lelu for banter with R2.
