Private Old Flame

[Saul Colsan]

Location: Coruscant, Level 1500

Saul was walking to his home if you can call that, the home was located at Level 1500: Located in the lower levels of Coruscant. It's not quite level 1313, but it does share a lot of its qualities, namely overpopulation, high crime, and the occasional food shortage. It's amazing that the people from the surface don't realize that constant gang wars are fought underneath while worrying about constant Sith attacks. Thankfully the SIA had a vested interest in the increasing gang activity in the lower levels but Saul had a feeling it was because it started to affect the citizens above. He was tasked in finding a Hutt, who was responsible of smuggling Deathsticks to the higher levels. A couple of influential figures were starting to get high off of the product including children at Coruscant High.

Shouldn't be too hard of a task to do, Saul just needed to head back to his apartment to get more information. Walking on the uneven sidewalk, Saul began to light a spice stick and began to smoke brushing past the mass of people every single one of them lost in their own worries paying Saul no mind. He attempted to ignore the many flickering neon lights trying to entice him to gamble, frack, or eat at their shady abodes sidestepping an irradiated puddle that was on the sidewalk. An airy sigh escaped Saul's mouth as well as some smoke as he looked up at the artificial sky.

"Home sweet home."

Sera Inkari

 

[Sera Inkari]

Graceful steps carried Sera through our city's streets, gliding over puddles threatening to mar clean robes. An orange hood hid amber locks, ocean-deep eyes lowered toward quieter poise, weaving through bustling crowds, careful not to misstep. Modest garments disguised her hidden saber folded within temple robes, giving presence both serene and certain. Kashyyyk called through visions, reminding her time slipped away, trails of her Duros—Zaler Dune, broker of secrets—growing fainter.

Something neared. A shift, inevitable yet elusive, dancing beyond prophetic sight. Fate drifted like petals on a breeze, landing where she least expected.

Dreams condensed to reality, a grey door ahead, she knocked twice. A folded note passed, another received. Stepping forward, drawn by intuition, threads of possibility converge. Yet her future, never clear, blurred further. Why did her sight fail her here? Thresholds enticing her discovery. Uncertainty, once unsettling, met with grace of her experience, guiding her and illuminating better outcomes.

Shadows stretched along her quiet hallway. Tension weaving through still air. Slamming behind her a door closed. A blaster's cry rang out, sharp, ricocheting off walls—nothing visible. Dipping low, twirling her form flowed outward with practiced grace. Flash. Spark. Silence.

…

…

…

An amber glow framed her silhouette against darkened walls. Blue eyes softened, gazing downward toward a droid form cleaved apart. A small pouch lay beside her attacker. With quiet breath, her fingers curled claiming what had been left behind.

Her waking dreams had taken her to here, but no further.

Saul Colsan

 

[Saul Colsan]

Saul saw his apartment from across the street. Just a small, cramped apartment located on top of a general store. The owner was Gol Frax: A Besalisk who ran small businesses around the area. He was also a secret information broker whom Saul relied on whenever he did missions in the Coruscant Underground. As such, he and Gol had a professional relationship, he was even generous in Saul not paying his rent on time. As he crossed he noticed a person whose body was covered in a large red robe about to pass him. Red robe..... Saul knew of a woman who wore a red robe before.

He wondered if that could be..... no it couldn't. They haven't talked to each other ever since their date. Kind of a sad moment too, Saul actually liked that woman. As they got closer, Saul "bumped" into the woman and her looked into her pale face. "Excuse me...." he said before seeing Sera Inkari again. "Well if you look at that." Saul smirked. "Sera..... it's been a while."
