A visit to the Dunes (and Dracwick)

[Yukki Kazuto]

As he rode across the dunes, he found that at first it was a little challenging to control the bike on the sand, especially as he rode over sand dunes and around the occasional cactus. He considered stopping to summon a helmet, but decided against it as he didn’t know how far away the gate was. Eventually he got the hang of it, and began even having fun with it, jumping off high sand dunes and other tricks. He hoped he was even going in the direction, for all he knew, the old man could have just sent him further into the dunes than he had been in before.


After riding for a few hours, he began to doubt that he would ever see civilization again in this lifetime, or if he would die before he could reach another person. He noticed that he didn’t seem to be running out of gas, or if the bike even took gas, as the fuel meter hadn’t dropped below full. Maybe it was because of the omnillium? He didn’t bother thinking about it too much. These were just things he had to get used to living in the omniverse.


Yukki thought about where he would go once he got out of the dunes. He already knew he didn’t want to stay in the dunes, and he didn’t want to go back to coruscant either. He eventually came to the conclusion that he would find out more information about the omniverse, and figure out where he would go from there. Maybe there was somewhere that he could live out his life peacefully, without waking up every day worried about if he was being hunted by someone.


After several more hours of riding, he eventually saw a small village in the distance. As he rode towards it, he realized that it was the area with the gate to the nexus, and that it was where he had first arrived in the dunes. He stopped just outside the village, and extracted the omnillium from the bike, keeping the knowledge that he could summon in vehicles as well as items and weapons.


He began walking around the village, and eventually found himself being dragged towards the bar that he had been in earlier, the one that looked like it had been made in the fifties. He chatted with different people, and learned different things about the world he was now living in. Yukki eventually decided that his next stop would be in the vasty deep, a verse that he had been told was mostly ocean and was darted with islands, many of which were undiscovered. He would look into joining the imperial navy, and seeing if his skills could be of any use to the navy, especially after he was told that they were mostly separated from the main imperial force in Coruscant.


With a new purpose in mind, he stepped out of the bar, and began walking to the gate. When he got to the gate, he turned and looked back over the savannah, now knowing that’s it’s peaceful looks were deceiving, like so many other things in the omniverse, and stepped out into the nexus.
