[The feed shows a man in his early thirties wearing a bright orange pilot suit, with some bruises in his forehead and cheekbones. Poe is not new to myriad sorts of alien creatures but beings living on a giant turtle and between reality planes is a whole new level of 'special'. That said, he had taken the news surprisingly well and now is giving the camera a smile.]

It's been a long time since I had vacations - over a decade, probably. Please, someone tell me this much cold is not the norm here. I'm having flashbacks of a mission I had in Hoth years ago and I actually would like to keep all my fingers intact.

I'm also looking for a friend, we seem to be losing each other a lot lately...It's an astromech droid, a white an orange BB unit. It's terribly cute and it knows it. If you happen to see it, I'd appreciate a call.

[The rest of the message is changed from video to text, and written specifically in Aurebesh.]

Hello. This is Poe Dameron, callsign: Black Leader.

I might as well find out if there’s someone else here from home. The Galaxy is not as much of a big place as it looks like.

If you can read this, please let me know.

I wouldn't worry. You go back to the exact moment you left.

[Shay knows. He's experienced it.]

Okay, that is useful. it does make me feel better about not being able to help in the war.

[Weird, but useful. Poe's going to assume time freezes, or something equally strange.]

Do you have any advice to share about this city? Or know about things I should avoid?

The kedan are accommodating, but it's best to not get on their bad side. But it's not like they're one entity. Just don't go about trying to lord it over them.

One of the good things about my job is that traveling and meeting new people is something I do often. Culture shocks are complicated but I'll try my best not to screw up.

What did you do in your world? If you don't mind me asking.

I was a merchant sailor... Or mercenary, or transport. Whatever brought in the money to keep me and my crew alive.

[It's sort of true, but not quite.]

That's and interesting way of living...[Poe smiles.]...a dangerous one too. [Do tell him more.]

[Works for Poe, is not as if he's going to judge someone else's life decisions.]

I live on the seas. It's what I grew up knowing. It's only dangerous if you're not careful. Respect the ocean and she'll respect you back...

...Apart from the times where she's a cruel bitch whose mood changes on a whim.

I haven't seen an actual sea in a long, long time. In the moon I grew up we had plenty of lakes, though. What sort of ship you had?

You talk about the sea as if it's alive. Clearly a sign you know it well.

You can see it if you go to the edge of the turtle furthest from Tavimbi.

[A pause.]

Alternatively, my ship is here with me. The Morrigan, she's a fortified sloop... I could take you out for a short while. We can't spend too long away from Tu Vishan or it'll be like losing our Soul Gems.

Will do. It's really been a while and I miss the salty smell. I have to check the map first, I'm not used to the landscape just yet.

I wouldn't say no to that, I have a special kind of fondness towards all sort of ships., flying or not. the limitations are troublesome but I really appreciate the offer.

Well, then... I think we're going to get along just fine. A man who respects the ship he sails in is a rare commodity nowadays.

I think so to. To be honest, I couldn't live without flying.

...Flying?

The sort of ships I pilot, they all fly in the air. And in space most of the time, actually.

...That must be glorious.
