「Act 59: Passing through」

Celestial Forest, Eanor, 37 ABY

Hux was standing by the carrier droid, sucking his teeth, and staring moodily into the gloom where the river roared stonily below; his desire for adventure was at its lowest ebb. He was never a sucker for adventure, Ren used to do back then all the dirty work, he never really stepped out of his comfort zone. Now, he followed Rose blinding to this kind of mission without overthinking the possibilities as he always did.

Rose stepped next to him "It's time," she said gazing at the anxious figure of Hux and softly crapped his hand holding there for a moment "We have to go!" she added and shared a smile with him "The first part of our journey is flexible the rest will be hard and dreary."

Hux refused to gratify that with a response because he already thought that their journey was exhausting. And now there was Rose assuring him that it would only get worse. So it was almost against his will that he found himself mesmerized by Rose interference to guarantee him that things would only get worse. But it sounded like Rose Tico, since the day he met her, she kept treating him cruel and she enjoyed it. And slowly Hux came to like it in a bizarre way.

"What have I missed?" Poe angled towards Zorii and whispered, "Hugs and Rose seem comfortable close!" he had observed the pair since yesterday and the familiarity between them struck him.

"Really hoped I'd have to explain that part," Zorii said, "All those months you were away from the base, those two became really close."

Poe smirked gazing at Zorii "Rose and Hugs close friends! Zorii you surely lived through unforgettable times."

"You're outta luck and missed it," she scoffed "I don't want to relive moments like those." Zorii cocked her head closer to his ear and murmured "They aren't just close friends!" then she pulled back and looked at Poe.

"We are in our way to trade with more danger and everyone is busy falling in love!" Poe grumbled in disappointment as he and Zorii hiked behind the rest of the company.

"Why?" Zorii asked curiously "Who else is?"

"Hux and Rose?" Finn suddenly interrupted them as he appeared between them "I would never believe that Rose was after bad boys!"

"Me neither," agreed Zorii "And I honestly never wanted to know that detail about Rose."

Poe wrapped his arm around Finn bringing him closer "You lost one of your girls, Pal!" he nudged him.

Finn shook his head "I already talked with Rose, our timing was just not right! Though things didn't work out with Rey as well. But I still have Jannah!"

Zorii shifted her head confused, staring at the two friends. Poe winked at her and explained, "Finn here had fallen in love with Rose, Rey, and Jannah at the same time." He turned and looked at his friend "Maybe even with me, Zorii you should be careful you might be next!"

"What?" Zorii puzzled "He likes you?"

But Zorii never got her answers as Finn interrupted them "No, Poe! I'm more mature now when it comes to love. My feelings about Rey haven't changed. But since she isn't interested I might go for Jannah!"

Poe tapped his back one more time, he was not sure what to say to Finn. His point of a few about following in love was ridiculously "Good Luck buddy!"

Zorii and he watched Finn approaching Jannah, they both sighed as they figured out what he would talk with her. "Finn then is into you then?" Zorii asked Poe once more.

Poe nodded as he didn't really want to talk about the subject. "He simply is into everyone!" he said, dropping his gaze.

"You two have amazing chemistry," Zorii observed, "as a couple, you would be perfect."

"Come now Zorii, don't tease me!" Poe complained as he stepped onwards, ending there their conversation as he didn't want to talk about it any longer.

The company steadily hiked through the Celestial Forest, aiming to reach the deep valley. Ben and Rey ignored each other as they didn't want to acknowledge what had happened last night. For both, it seemed a mistake that shouldn't have happened. And they silently agreed not to speak about last night's kiss.

Inferno-Tower, Eanor, 37 ABY

Castle walls, pebbles scattered on a clammy mossy gravestone, rockery overspilling with an assortment of virescent leaves, like towering cliffs, stood out from the shelter of the coven of Terror, from which it ran and then returned. One who passed in and came at length out of the echoing tunnel, beheld a straight, a great circle, somewhat hollowed like a vast shallow bowl: a mile it measured from rim to rim. But no green thing grew there in the latter days of Delkor. Nothing managed to live through the darkness that was surrounding the area.

The roads were paved with stone-flags dark and hard, and besides their borders instead of trees, there marched long lines of pillars, some of marble, some of copper and iron, joined by heavy chains, to the center all the roads ran between their chains. In the middle of the tower, the stones and stairs stood Delkor he swept down the stone stairs "It's been a while Dark you haven't sought my counsel. For that is always why you had come, is it not?" he asked Dark Rey although he already knew the answer.

If the land of Eanor, built on blood and bone, could talk and beg for deafness. Though Dark Rey couldn't hear the whispers of the darkness, tales of lives lost and deaths of agony that echoed around the staircases of jagged rock. And even if she did, she was still trusting Delkor. She moved quickly towards him, grimy and thoughtful. "Master! The Sith's Soulstone has arrived in Eanor. I can feel it." she responded with a seriousness in her voice.

"Are you sure of this?" Dark Enemy buzzed as he stepped down the stairs, that had much to say and no ears willing to hear, no soul generous to feel the torment that lay within. "Why can't I feel it's presence! I am connected to the ancient darkness! Why is it that you can sense its presence, and I can't?"

"Beyond any doubt, Master. I don't know its exact location, but I can feel it." Dark Rey lay climbing up the stairs and following Delkor inside.

"And yet you do not have the wit to see where exactly it is!" he commented, as they slowly reached the side of the cavernous central chamber.

"We still have time to locate it," she assured him.

Dark Rey nodded and bowed in respect taking her to leave. She took the root of the dark corridor towards the open space, trying to keep her mind in place. Her master was right lately she had changed. The shadow that was visiting her had promised her more power and wealth than Delkor would imagine. It promised her ways to rule not only the north Regions but the whole galaxy. And she accepted the offer. However, this game was a double blade knife that could easily lead her to her doom. That's why she had to be careful of her actions.
