The four of them sat in the cafeteria alone, with the company of just the droid. Several times, Dianna had to run off part of her crew, who had stopped in to welcome back Raezyr and Trychon, had heard the news of the alien child, or who were just hungry.
Trychon had started off by telling the story, but he didn't get very far. He had started off by telling how they'd heard rumors of a rogue Sith Master on a remote planet who needed to be stopped, and how they'd taken a shuttle, not wanting to draw too much attention. Then he started to explain how they'd had mechanical failures on the shuttle and lost control and some safety measures.
Mannix had already finished the first plate of food Dianna had set out for him, and it turned out she was right. Having downed the serving, and helping himself to a second round, Mannix jumped in on Trychon's story, figuring he'd remember the next part better than the brothers could. He told Dianna how he'd found the shuttle, and then continued on with the story until it was done.
Trychon and Raezyr sat quietly and listened to the boy's perspective on the adventure, a little shocked at how quick Mannix was to open up to Dianna. On their voyage back to Hoth, they'd forgotten how excitable and friendly he once was. He told Dianna with a big grin about how the two had saved the miners, how Trychon had destroyed the giant horde of beetles, and how
Raezyr had found Saffron's body and brought it back to the monestery. He finished the story by telling how the town had turned on itself, unsure whether or not Trychon and Raezyr were the ones from the prophesy... and how they'd saved Mannix from a mob. He left out the part about the mob bieng his brother's friends, and how he'd killed his brother Baldemar with Trychon's knife... but neither Trychon nor Raezyr felt like correcting him.
Trychon added on to the end of Mannix's story a small spin about how they had been attacked from behind while helping search for survivors of the fight and give aide.
Dianna gave him a somewhat doubtful look, but she seemed to believe the look of concern on Mannix's face when Trychon recalled the pain of the attack.
Dianna changed the subject to some of her business, although she kept much of it vague and more 'visitor friendly'. When everyone had eaten, Trychon took Mannix back to the ship while Raezyr and Dianna headed back to her quarters to discuss things a bit more.
