The Shadowlands of Kashyyyk were a dark, dangerous part of the planet that not even the native Wookiees dared go for too long... which meant that they'd called for Jedi assistance when one of their younglings had been snatched away and the trail lead into the seemingly haunted areas of Kashyyyk. Ruzaan had rendezvoused with a Jedi Knight and his good friend Samara, but disaster had befallen Master Ennias nearly instantly as the Orcolan was found to be allergic to the bite of the Deeiw-tcha blood-worm fly, and the two padawans were left alone along with a squad of heavily-armed Wookiees.
Ruzaan was trying to be brave, but for whose sake- the Wookiees, Samara's, or his own- he couldn't tell. The ambience of Kashyyyk creeped him out, as did the dead husks of burnt or dead Wroshyr trees that jutted like skeletons out of the ground. Unfamiliar sounds of wildlife- all of it presumably deadly- echoed through the gloomy air. The Togruta glanced over at Samara, wishing that he had some of the grace that she was showing, given their unfortunate circumstances: no Jedi Knight supervision, Wookiees who had already communicated their reluctance to continue much further, and a trail growing colder by the minute...
He had a bad feeling about this.
