Tol Amm wasn't a planet that Vesper was particularly familiar with. Normally if she were mucking about in Hutt space it was almost exclusively on Nar Shaddaa. The Smuggler's Moon was dangerous, sure, but it also had a teeming nightlife and plenty of things for a young twenty-something to do to kill time and brain cells. The rest of the sector... not so much.
Of course, this trip to Hutt space wasn't for personal pleasure or anything like that. Vesper and her partner for this mission, a Jedi padawan named Izel, had been tasked with investigating the source of food shortages reported on the planet. She wouldn't say it out loud in fear of being offensive, but Vesper thought it was kind of ironic in a humorous way that bugs were generally the reason for food shortages, and the Jedi had sent a giant one to figure out what was going on.
As their ship descended through the atmosphere of Tol Amm, the rain the planet was known for became increasingly evident. Great, nothing punctuated a mission quite like terrible weather. As the ship landed near one of the plantations - the one that the person they were here to talk to, Yars Thrindel, generally worked out of - Vesper couldn't help but feel a strange.. tingle make the hair on the back of her neck stand up. Something on this world did not feel right, of that much she was certain.
Heading for the loading ramp, Vesper did a double check of her gear. She wasn't inherently expecting any violence to occur, but with the the feeling the force had granted her, she could no longer be entirely sure. She was carrying her lightsaber as well as a side arm blaster tucked into her jacket. As usual, Vesper opted away from typical Jedi clothing and was wearing something more comfortable.
Before heading out into the rain, Vesper looked back towards Izel and gave him a reassuring smile. "Hopefully we can figure out what's going on and won't be stuck here long. Yars' office is supposedly in the big building on the far side of the plantation. Should probably head their first."
Stepping off the loading ramp, Vesper's boots sunk into the mud a little bit as she looked around. Everything was so eerily quiet, only the sound of rain pattering on the ground in her ears. The feeling she'd had on the ship only intensified as the young Jedi started walking towards Yars' office.
