Hello.

[She gives a small nod of greeting at the screen.]

I would like to be able to make more money and I asked the Kedan how I can do that. They said to have a job is the best way.

I am very good at finding things, so this now is my job. If you have lost something, I will find it if you give me money. You do not have to give me money, I will find it anyway. But it would be nice. There are books about how to make cakes that I would like to buy.

I am Yorda, and I live at the hotel.

[This is definitely how you successfully entrepreneur rite?]

[Well that was sure a different announcement.]

Hello Yorda, I'm Poe. Is this your first time ever asking for a job?

[Video]

[shroudofgray]

Hello Poe!

Yes, it is. Did I do it right?

[aprettyflyboy]

It's nice to meet you. And...you certainly got your point across.

You could look around the different sectors for a job that suits you. On the Fire Sector they are often hiring but it can be a bit dangerous to work there. On the Welcome Center they also keep a list of kedan shops that are hiring Foreigners.

Do you like cooking then?

[shroudofgray]

I am glad it was easy to understand then.

[She looks slightly puzzled at this.]

I already have a job. It is to find things. I have decided this.

I like to eat more than I like to cook, but both I like very much. I am learning how to make food I like.

[aprettyflyboy]

You were, for sure.

Well it's important to know you vocation. [He's just wondering how much money can she actually make out of that.] Mine is to be a pilot but unfortunately I can't do this here.

[He has to laugh at that.] Eating is always more satisfying. I am the Hotel too, working on the repairs but if cooking is what you want to learn I can always teach you on my free time. I am not bad at it and I know how to make cakes.

[Plus is not as if he has a lot of things to do after work.]

[shroudofgray]

Pilot ... Ah! There s another who calls himself a pilot. That means you are one who can fly, yes?

If you are at the hotel as well... then you are new, yes? It is kind that you are helping to fix the stairs. Thank you.

It would be good to have another to make cakes with. Do you know how the bakers make them different colours? I can only ever get them to be yellow or white.

[aprettyflyboy]

Who's that other person? A friend of yours? I can fly anything but without my x-wing here or a ship to use I am grounded. [It's terrible and he misses flying so much, you have no idea.]

I'm new, yes. Not living at the hotel, though, I share a house with a friend in the Sky sector. Helping is the least I could do after what happened, you really don't have to thank me.

I learned to cook with my dad and I always enjoyed it. To make the cakes different colours you need to use food colouring or you can get icing that already comes in a particular colour.

[shroudofgray]

Friend... no. But he is not a foe either. We spoke. He called himself 'Luke'.

Kindness begets gratitude. There are few things a person ever has to do. But I would still like to say 'thank you'.

Food colouring... what does it look like? I know what icing is - they make it with cream and sugar and it is sticky. I made some, but then I ate it and there was not much left for the cake.

[aprettyflyboy]

Could he be Luke Skywalker? A blond man, in his twenties? If you are talking about him, we are from the same world. More or less.

In that case...you are welcome. [What a sweet girl.]

Food coloring it's a pigment so it usually comes in small vials of liquids but it can also be a powder or a gel. It's hard to resist temptation when you have icing around. When I was a kid I always tried to eat the cookie dough too. Can I ask how old are you?

[shroudofgray]

Yes. One who walks the skies. He is looking for a way to return to them - a ship.

[There's a long pause as Yorda considers her age. She kept track of time as best she could but she couldn't say exactly how old she was.]

I have seen sixteen summers, I think. Maybe less. Maybe more. It is hard to say.

[aprettyflyboy]

That's a nice title for him. Back in my world I know him by Master Luke, he's a legend nowadays.

[So young, it explains a few things.]

You aren't sure? You don't celebrate birthdays where you are from?

[shroudofgray]

He seemed much more real than a legend. In your time... is he dead?

[She knows time moves differently here, that people are plucked from it at all different points like fish from the sea.]

Birthdays... I do not know. I was not born.

[aprettyflyboy]

Legends can be real. To become a legend you need to do something amazing but that doesn't mean you have to die in the process. Master Luke's alive and well in my world but he's been missing for a while.

[It's a good question regardless, and given the nature of the city a logical one.]

Oh. Your species doesn't do that? Can I ask how you came to be?

[shroudofgray]

He is not missing here.

...My species...?

[She considers this for a moment.]

A vessel is not a species.

[aprettyflyboy]

No, he's not. [He's also not the man Poe remembers jut yet.]

Sorry I don't quite understand. You are a vessel for...what or who, exactly?

[shroudofgray]

Then I am glad you have found him.

Now I am a vessel only for myself. The other is dead.

[aprettyflyboy]

Thank you, Yorda. [Is not the Luke he was looking for but Poe is still glad.]

And that's a good thing? It means you are in control or your own body?

[Taking a big guess here, feel free to correct him, miss.]

[shroudofgray]

You are welcome.

I am not sure if it is good or bad yet, but I am myself and no one else.

[aprettyflyboy]

That is never bad, if you ask me. It also makes you responsible of your own actions.

[shroudofgray]

Yes.

Of this I am glad.

[aprettyflyboy]

Good to hear then.
