The conflict between the Hutt's and the Empire left many displaced persons, refugees and victims of war in various states of distress or worse. While fighting lingered on in distant parts, the true price paid, remained behind, as it always did. Citizens forced into picking up the pieces of their lives through the rubble, families torn apart or lost entirely.
But there was those whose responsibility began in chaos and turmoil. Their job to offer support and mend the broken, to save and prepare those who thought they had lost it all, for the new chapter in their life, even if they were yet to see it as such. The unsung heroes of conflicts were the ones who dove in to rescue and mend the broken, their care saving lives and preventing disaster of an unimaginable scale, all without politics or religion being invested.
It was one of these such camps that the former Sith Master arrived at after travelling alone from Thule. The bare minimum of care had stabilised her fragile frame, but the battered woman was both scared and scarred with wounds across her entire body, extensive damage around her throat and of course a broken wrist. With all that had gone on, someone with her injuries seemed to blend in with the others, all waiting their turn for whatever medical care could be freely offered.
For her part, the swollen, quiet creature waited in line, barely recognisable to anyone who might have known her. A million thoughts running through her mind at once, worries about the future and her inability to provide for the family to come. The looming dread of knowing what lay inside her, whose it was and what implications that could mean. Her failure to secure a future for this baby, her legacy in ruin.
The severing of her connection to the force was numbing, and no amount of explanation would be able to fathom the depths of despair she lay in because of it. Despite being in the midst of a crowd, she had never felt more alone and afraid, a feeling so very foreign to her.
