"I will be honest, Elara. I don't believe we are. However, we are left without a choice. The Mandalorians set up a Blockade around the planet, so we can't escape." Master Uttsam replied.

"We only have regular fighters left off our fleet. They won't be enough to break past an enemy blockade without incurring heavy losses. Maybe if we had a blockade runner...we could slip right past them unnoticed." the first officer stated.

"We don't, the Republic has very few effective blockade runners." The second officer argued.

"Before we engaged the enemy, we sent a signal to Republic High Command, so they know the Mandalorians are here. The only detail they don't know is just how dire the situation here is." Samax revealed. "So eventually they will send reinforcements even if we can't manage to send them another message."

"Their attention, however, will all be turned on the Ambria, where the Supreme Commander is currently fighting against the enemy General Cassus Fett." The first officer said.

"Both of you, we have more important matters than settling scores with the Jedi." Raed told them, he wasn't fond of petty grudges, especially when they conflicted with his code of honor.

After the Mandalorian transport ships began to head down to the surface, Raed began heading to hangar S-01 to board his own shuttle.

Along the way, a Mandalorian crewmember approached him. "Aliit'alor, sorry to bother you." He said.

"What is it?" He asked.

"My unit and I finished cleaning up the aftermath of the fight in the maintanance tunnels. We had the bodies of our comrades taken to the morgue so that they can be returned to their clans on Mandalore to be given proper funerals fitting for those that died in battle." The crewmember reported.

"Good, those men died honorably they deserve to be treated with respect after death." Raed muttered. He figured that the Mandalorian had more to say so he added. "Anything else?"

"Yes, general." The crewmember said. "We cremated the remains of the Jedi that died in the tunnels. This is what was on her body." He handed Raed Satu's Lightsaber and Communicator.

The general grabbed them. He felt his honor wounded for not having stopped that outcome. It may not have been me that did the deed, but my hands are stained with her blood... "Thank you, you are dismissed."

The Mandalorian saluted him and departed.

Raed strapped the lightsaber to his belt and placed the communicator in one of his pouches. ''I'll keep them as reminders of my failure to keep with my code. It is a strict one and some may call it foolish, but I do not kill women, children nor innocents. To do so is monstrous...like the monsters that destroyed my home.''
