Chapter 4, Part 1

*the scene opens in a dimly lit chamber, with a large window on one wall. Outside the window, a planet can be seen, but a star field dominates the view. In front of the window, there is a chair, though it resembles a throne more than anything. A black-clad figure approaches the chair.*

Gilgamesh, kneeling: I have returned, my Lord.

Seated Figure: Yes. But you have returned in failure.

Gilgamesh: Yes. I was unable to prevent their learning of the ways of the Force. They escaped.

Seated Figure: An unfortunate wrinkle in our plans. See to the troops, then check the droids.

Gilgamesh: But that is work for grunts!

Seated Figure: Then go do it before I give you work for slaves.

Gilgamesh, biting her tongue: Yes, my Lord.

*she leaves, and the view moves around to the front of the chair. The seated figure wears a hooded robe, and we see only enough of his face to see that it is Mr. Guido.*

*scene ends*
