"You going to get it back to me before dark?" Sovi asks.

Hera, meanwhile, is still on the comm with Chopper. "No, a droid flying alone won't look good landing in the port... You could, but I don't want you staying in orbit, it's Tuskens down here and TIEs up there..."

Tsebec speaks up, talking to Sovi, but Hera catches the words 'offer' and 'crawler.' "You can give us a ride?" she asks.

"They're heading to Mos Taike tonight," Sovi says. "It's up north, they'll get in by tomorrow evening. You could meet your ship there - it'll probably be safer, if you land northeast of the town. Sand People avoid that area."

"Why?" Hera asks.

Sovi's mouth twists. "Because it's near a Hutt's palace."
