General Kenobi. Years ago you served my father in the Clone Wars. Now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire. I regret that I am unable to present my father’s request to you in person, but my ship has fallen under attack, and I’m afraid my mission to bring you to Alderaan has failed. I have placed information vital to the survival of the Rebellion into the memory systems of this R2 unit. My father will know how to retrieve it. You must see this droid safely delivered to him on Alderaan. This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You’re my only hope.

HIATUS EXTENSION

Unfortunately, I’m going to have to extend my hiatus until the end of the year. I’m gonna be moving back to Northern California in January and preparing to do so is just taking up a lot of my time. Every time I sit down to do drafts, I’m reminded of all the things I still need to do. I barely get time to relax. I’m so sorry for the inconvenience. If you want to drop me until I come back, I totally understand. If you have any questions, go ahead and message me on any of my accounts.
