Arrival on Nar Shaddaa
After several hyperspace jumps the Trader's Luck finally reached Nar Shaddaa. Tasherit was sitting in the cockpit when the freighter fell back in real space. Jaden looked at her well knowing that Tash's brother was in an even worse condition than when they had picked him up on Crait.
"It's about time, love," the young Katarn said and steered the freighter towards their destination.
Tasherit stared out of the viewport seeing the Smuggler's Moon. She was hoping that her mother would be able to save her brother. Nomi was his only chance. She activated the comm and hailed her mother.
"Here's Trader's Luck calling. Mama, do you copy?"
There was only statics to be heard. She gave it another try.
"Here's Trader's Luck calling. Mama, do you copy… anybody?"
Dash went over to the comm unit when hearing the call.
"Here's your father, sweetie," Dash Rendar answered.
"We're here at Nar Shaddaa and just in landing approach, Papa," his daughter said looking at Jaden who dipped the Trader's Luck just in the Smuggler's Moon atmosphere.
"Good, Mama is waiting for you at Shug's Space Barn. She felt that you are near and went there. "
Tasherit nodded and showed Jaden the direction. The young man weaved the freighter expertly through the narrow spaces of the Vertical City until he landed the Trader's Luck smoothly in the court of Shug's Space Barn. He cut the engines, opened the hatch and lowered the ramp. Nomi was standing there already and hurried up the ramp before it could hit the ground. Her daughter had unstrapped and was waiting for her at the hatch.
"Finally, Mama, come I show you where Corran is." She took the lead and brought Nomi to her wounded brother. Her mother stared at the young man who didn't look like the Corran she was used to know.
"You could have shaved him, Tash," her mother said before she pulled the blanket back her son was covered with. The Jedi frowned seeing the wounds and retrieved a crystal from her pocket. Her daughter looked mesmerized at the crystal in Nomi's hands.
"Is this the famous Kaiburr crystal, Mama?"
Her mother nodded her head before she settled down on the floor to meditate. The Jedi Master breathed calmly which Tasherit could tell because of the evenly lifting and lowering of her mother's chest. She felt Nomi's calmness and determination in the Force. After a while Nomi rose and went to the cot her youngest son was laying. She concentrated and summoned the Force. The Kaiburr crystal's faint inner glow became a bright glowing causing an odd sensation in her hand. She held the crystal over her son's body and the glow intensified even more and begun to engulf him. Slowly the wounds begun to close and to heal as Tasherit could see while her mother held her eyes closed.
"It's working, Mama," she whispered silently in awe to not disturb her mother's concentration.
"Turn your brother, Tash," her mother said.
Tasherit reached out with the Force and turned her brother so he was lying on his stomach. Nomi continued to treat Corran with the Kaiburr crystal which enhanced the Force and her ability to heal. Her youngest son's body was bathed in the crystal's glow. Finally the Jedi Master opened her eyes and looked at her son. She smiled and nodded her head.
"My work is done, Tash. Corran will live."
Together they turned the young man so he was lying on his back and covered him with the blanket. Both women were breathing a sigh of relief when Corran opened his eyes and looked at them.
