Episode Twenty-One

Naix applied bacta packs to the downed crewmates, but Kass bled out before he could be revived. Naix and Conrad killed the remaining mercenaries, and Conrad beat the mercenary who killed Kass into pulp. The crew collected Kass’s body and the stolen Corellian Wine, and returned to Toydor. They returned the speeders and recouped their 2000 credit deposit (less a 100 credit cleaning fee).

Back at the Hutta Reaper, the bartender Dak was pleased that they recovered his wine, and he offered to get them admission to a fighting tournament hosted by Beldorian. Naix had a drink with Vanchu and she explained Beldorian had hired her to kill the Nikto; and she paid Naix 5000 credits for his help in drawing him into the open. Naix tried to convince her that she’d be royalty if she joined his Mandalorians; and Vanchu relented that if they had a suitable place to rebuild, she might be interested, and they exchanged ship codes. Conrad returned Kass’s body to the Nightjar and gave his lightsaber to Mace. Conrad told Gage how Kass died and that he was the best of them. She wept over his body, and blamed herself for sending him after the crew.
