It's been a day since we got back from The Jedi Temple. Nella has woken up and seems to have recovered from whatever was affecting her. It's good she got over it on her own and didn't need my help. It'll make her stronger in the end.

In fact, Nella and Marisa are enjoying some Mother-Daughter time together. Since Nella and I will be leaving soon, I suggested they spend as much time together as possible.

On the other hand, I have my company filled with the beautiful Twi'lek I've known since childhood. Eassa and I are sitting at the Senate Building Cantina.

It's just the two of us; there are a lot of meetings today, from what Satele told me. I don't know if my Old Master is mad at me; I don't want to pry into her mind to find out. But I can sense she's worried. Now that she knows I'm searching for Abeloth.

While I know I'm from a different universe... A different dimension; I grew up in this one without knowing... I'm guessing God did that on purpose. So I'd have the power and life of someone in this universe and the knowledge and experience of another later down the line.

I still remember my wish. It was a simple one. Nothing grand or specific. All I got was one. And I was vague with it too. Such things usually end with disappointment. Mine didn't.

"When are you leaving?"

Eassa halts my thoughts as the holonet show we're watching goes to a break. I can sense the disappointment and pain in her. She doesn't want me to go, and she can't come with Nella and me. She's got responsibilities to the Jedi.

After all this time, it has been nice to see her again. We never got the chance to have that moment of passion between us, but that's not something you rush with another person.

"When Nella and Marisa return, we're picking up our new ship. Then we're leaving."

The answer isn't the one she wants to hear, but she probably expects it. My dear friend lives a life that she can't leave and if she did. She'd lose everything she worked for. Besides, working with the Republic is a good thing in her eyes.

I've got other things to worry about besides a galactic conflict. The Sith and Jedi will always have their wars and conflicts. It's inevitable they happen. Most of the time, it's best to let it run its course, and not interfere.

Which is what I've been doing. Letting the war play out. I don't know what changes have specifically occurred due to me, but I do know there have been numerous amounts.

The new ship mom had bought us is ready, and after taking a tour it's way better than the one we had before. But I know Nate wants to get the one stolen back. There are a lot of important things on that ship, and all of them were stolen by SCORPIO.

I'm looking forward to seeing the droid again. While Nate and her never really got along, I always found her company fun. Her sense of humor, or lack thereof. Always made things fun.

"I don't want to be a nosy mother, but I'd like to know where you two are going."

Mom grabs Nate's attention, and my cousin folds his arms. He's not told me where we're going yet, either, but I trust him.

"We're heading to a world that's not on any maps or charts. And it's safer for you and us if you don't know where we're going. But you can trust me, you know I protect her."

My mother gives him a hurt look, and a chuckle escapes my lips.

"I'm worried about you too, Nate. You don't tell me what you're up to. I can't help thinking you guys are going to die in some backwater world in the galaxy."

Way to paint a picture, mother.

"So, are you going to tell me where we're going now?"

It's about time I share with Nella since we're alone now. Dagobah is a place that I know very little about, only that it's incredibly powerful in The Force.

"We're heading to a world called Dagobah. If I'm correct."

After all, I can't remember if it's a moon or, a system... We'll know once we get there.
