Talak could sense that fear and concern she had for her son, and he knew that it was a very real threat. He wondered what would happen if someone came after them. He realized that it wouldn't have mattered what his past was, he would have fought "his own" to protect them. But his own weren't really his own anymore were they? He was setting out to... start something new? Break out on his own? He didn't really know where he would go after this, but he also wasn't sure he could stop attacking the Syndicates. Or maybe instead of focusing on murdering, he needed to focus on rescuing. Set up an underground slave liberation force. Yes, like he totally knew how to do that....

His entire pitch would have been that he'd not exposed the cult but had thrown suspicion on the Jedi. Now, after spilling half his guts to a Sector Ranger, that argument went out the window.

What happened to your leg? he asked. They'd been sitting here talking and he'd been woefully focused on himself, but it was clear she'd taken a beating in their time away as well.
