The stars streaked by like diamonds on velvet as Kess, a skilled smuggler with a reputation for getting in and out of the most heavily guarded systems, piloted her trusty ship, the "Marauder's Revenge."

As they entered the temple, they found themselves in a vast chamber filled with ancient artifacts and relics. At the center of the room, on a pedestal of black stone, lay the kyber crystal. It pulsed with a soft, blue light, seeming to hum with the power of the Force.

Upon arrival, they found the temple entrance guarded by a group of robed figures. Kess recognized the symbols on their robes as belonging to an ancient Twi'lek cult.
The lead guard, a grizzled Twi'lek with a scar above his eye, regarded them warily. "You shouldn't be here. This temple is a sacred place. The crystal is not for sale." The stars streaked by like diamonds on velvet
Kess and Vex exchanged a wary glance. They knew they had to get out of there, and fast. But as they turned to leave, they found themselves surrounded by more cultists, and the hooded figure began to circle around them, its lightsaber crackling to life...

Kess smiled wryly. "I'm afraid we can't leave without it. We have... buyers who are very interested in acquiring it."
