Nami gasped as the blaster pointed towards her – before she realised what Thassco had in mind. She licked her lips before gradually leaning...
“Please, please— No!” Nami flinched as if she herself had been shot. Ice gripped her chest, stabbing into her heart. She’d failed, completely, and...
“Wait—” Nami gasped, her heart pounding. Was the Togruta still alive? “Please, it’s my fault. Not hers.” Her whole body trembled as she looked up...
Nami cringed away, tears stinging her eyes. “Please, Master,” she wailed, “I didn’t mean to— I never wanted—” Her legs buckled under her, unable...
