In response to the Jedi's inquiry, DRK-1X <a href="http://wso.williams.edu/~rfoxwell/starwars/sounds/Droid03.wav" target="_blank">twiters mechanically</a> to draw attention to itself. As the female nemoidian approaches it, DRK-1X quickly retracts the barrel of its small blaster back into its belly compartment. It likewise retracts its 40 cm tall telescoping antenna, leaving the droid looking like little more than a black sphere with three photoreceptors. It drifts up to meet its Mistress at head level.DRK-1X responds in its genderless whisper-soft voice: Statement: Thank you Mistress. I am pleased that you find my service satisfactory. Acknowledgment: Order understood. DRK-1X floats in the center of the cabin between the forward pilot's chair and the aft passenger compartment. The diminutive droid traces a quick arc in the air towards the long-headed humanoid, opens a small panel on its starboard side and unfolds a tiny humanoid arm which it uses to gesture towards the cerean. Report: This male cerean Jedi was addressed as Femi by his master in his final transmission. Since the republic troopers turned on he and his master following Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's order, I concluded that he would desire the means to escape Taris quickly and safely. I approached him and he agreed to follow my reasonable instructions, to help protect you and to perform physical labor he deemed reasonable as required. He followed my instructions and his appearance in your hangar precipitated the human female Sith's sudden retreat. Our recent departure from Taris has concluded the terms of our agreement.DRK-1X then drifts sideways over to the armored human, retracts its starboard arm and deploys a mirrored copy of the mechanical limb from its port side which it uses to gesture towards the soldier. Due to our negotiations being cut short by the Sith, I was unable to determine this individual's proper name. He stated his interest in an expedient departure from Taris and I offered safe passage in exchange for his immediate aid. His unrelenting ranged assault upon the Sith proved, I believe, a strong deterrent to her attempted theft of this vessel. Our recent departure from Taris has likewise concluded the terms of our agreement.Assuming Dofina is familiar with her own ally, DRK-1X says nothing about the unfamiliar human female in their midst.</blockquote>
