First Shot | Video

[After she'd gotten herself out of that stasis pod and dressed, holstered, and strapped up, Kerra Holt took a moment to have a look around. This was definitely not where she'd intended to wind up when she'd made that last jump. Hell, where was this? And...what freak had shoved her into a tube naked?

Of course, when Kerra found the commlink, she was definitely going to poke at it. And set off the video thing accidentally.]

Oh. OH! Hey. Video? That's...different.

[Not Sith-tech, unless it was from Calimondra. No way any of the others had that sort of thing. Or Republic make? Or...the Hutts. Either way, it was broadcasting.

Kriff. Broadcasting. That wasn't good. People could see her face. Well...time to put on a smile and ask some questions then, Kerra.]

Right. So. If you can hear this...I guess I'm the new girl around here. And I've obviously got a few questions for anyone with the inclination to answer. Starting with where the hell am I? What system? What Quadrant, even. I don't even know if I'm in the Core Worlds or out on the Outer Rim. Last I knew I was making a Hyperspace jump and now I'm here.

[And just to be safe...but polite at the same time, may as well give the other name.]

Oh, and the name's Mercy.

I'm not sure what system this is. From what I hear, the stars don't match up to any known charts. Anyway, this planet is Verdana, and I'm Christine.

Greetings to you, Mercy. My name is Mulan. Sounds to me as you're in the same place I was just a few weeks ago.

The world we're in now is a place called Verdana. No one I've spoken to thus far seems to know how we got here, or have any memories of what happened to us. I'm afraid I might not be able to answer too many of your questions, considering how dissimilar this land is to the one I came from. Some of the others should be able to help.

[Wes appears on screen, clad in a flightsuit that would be familiar, if only Kerra had been born several centuries later. As it is, it is simply... very orange]

The planet is called Verdana. We're way beyond the Unknown Regions though. There's only two of us who have even heard of the Core Worlds or the Outer Rim.

[Well, three with Luke's girl, but that was complicated]

[Jarael's stoney face will appear on the viewscreen and she replies in a fairly factual tone. There is a hint of sympathy there, though, and perhaps a hint of appreciative recognition. It's nice to actually hear mention of places she knows.]

Mercy... You may have been captured like the rest of us after your last jump. Apparently that's what happened, anyway. I haven't been here very long either. But we all got onto the ship somehow.

It's good to see you've woken up, Mercy. By now you'll have gotten the regular explanation, but what too many of my comrades seem to de-emphasize is that we are war.
