Kashyyyk (Tier 3)

You have been through a lot and a tired Jedi can't function properly at the heat of battle. Even the Jedi council recognises this. As a sort of reward for your continued hard work, you are granted a weekend long leave from the temple to spend it on the sunny beaches of Kashyyyk, the Wookiee home world! Ranvi and Drek could also company you, they deserve some rest as much as you do. Everything has been paid for by the order, you will have a luxurious accommodation in one of the tree house hotels, next to the beach. They were built by an influential senator from the Banking Clan, Nix Card , who sought to expand the profitability of Kashyyyk, alongside the substantial timber export coming from there. The Wookiees prohibited the hotels at first, but later granted permission, as long as some of the profit is turned to restoring the deforested areas of the planet.

Kashyyyk is a temperate world, with trees reaching highs of kilometres, warm watered beaches at the sea shores, rich wildlife, not to mention the Wookiees inhabiting the planet.They live in tree houses and wooden platforms hundreds of meters above the ground. They rarely come down to the surface only near the beaches or rivers, in the forests the ground is usually dark and misty, with few reasons to be down there.

Ranvi (on the way to Kashyyyk): Yeey, finally some time to relax!

Lana: We did deserve a vacation, didn't we? The sunshine, sand, water, all at one place!

Drek: I don't know... The sand there is coarse, rough, irritating, not to mention it gets everywhere...

Ranvi: Come on, don't complain about it, we haven't even gotten there yet!

Drek: Would have preferred a vacation at Yavin Prime!

Ranvi: Isn't that just a gas giant? You can't even go there...

Drek: It has a space station with all the scenic views of the Yavin moons, all the while you get every advantage of being on a space station! Droid servants, automated food and drink production for your rooms, everything! One of the most expensive hotels to stay at!

Lana: Who would build a space hotel there? Who had the money for it?

Drek: Originally, the place was built for local miners, who were extracting Corusca gems from Yavin Prime's atmosphere, one of the most expensive gems in the galaxy. Later, when it turned out most of the miners are crushed to **** by the unpredictable weather and pressure conditions, they made a strike and demanded the best living conditions for their work. As long as it lasts (not too long)... Soo yeah, the authorities wanted to use the frequently emptying rooms to get some extra profit and have just started giving discounts since the mining explo...!

Ranvi: Okay, that's a horrible story if you think about it...! I would never ever go there! Staying in the rooms, where the previous tenants have just perished... Their beds might still be warm...! Euh...

Drek: Nonsense, the rooms are cleaned twice a day, they would change the bedsheets!

Ranvi: That's not what I meant...! Anyway, that spacehotel is a terrible place, period.

Drek (whispering as he's doing something suddenly on his datapad): Yavin Prime Spacehotel... Accommodation cancelling... Yes, I need a refund... Reason is ehm... Incurable illness... Maybe I should try the Kuat Hotel! That's the galaxy's largest shipyard, it has ships with the newest and most beautiful designs and...! And everything Ranvi would not be interested in... Skip...

Ranvi: What's that you are doing there, Drek?

Drek (lying obviously): Oh nothing, just checked the... The weather forecast for our days on Kashyyyk!

Lana: And what did it say?

Drek: As it's the dry season at that section of the planet, there won't be any rainfalls for weeks, perfect weather for tourists!

Ranvi: Great! I can't wait to try the Wookiee massage while looking at the sunset! I have only heard it's name, but never actually tried it myself!

Lana: Hm, I haven't heard of it, but we could try!

You land at the landing platform of the hotel. A few servant droids come and take your luggage to your rooms. The director of the hotel comes and welcomes you in person, it's rare they have Jedi visitors. The director is a Wookiee, in the employment of the Banking Clan.

Director (in native language): Welcome honoured guests! I am the humble director of this hotel, we have been looking forward to your arrival! Your rooms are prepared! Please use any of our services freely whenever you please, everything has been paid in advance by your mighty order! I wish you a pleasant stay and feel free to contact me, should you need anything further!

Drek (not understanding a word): Ehm, what did he just say...? Did I park at a reserved place? Or do I have to pay the parking fee...? That would be a problem, because I didn't bring any change, so...

Lana: He was welcoming us, you moron!

Drek: Oooh...! That's a relief, because all the other landing platforms seemed to be full already...!

Director: Yes, we are having a rush at this time of the season, all rooms are completely booked! As I said, please, enjoy your stay and do look for me if you have any questions!

Ranvi Thank you, have a good day!

The Wookiee bows and return into the hotel.

Drek: Since when do you two speak this whatever language he was using?

Lana: Since we learned it as Padawans...

Ranvi: Drek, you said you were only bad at a few languages outside galactic basic... What were those actually...?

Drek: Well, to be honest... My Huttese is a bit rusty, Mandalorian has never been close to me to begin with... Twi'leki started off well, but turned out badly, when I once accidentally said to a high ranking Twi'lek official on a live holonet frequency, that Twi'leks were important whores of the Galactic Republic...

Lana and Ranvi: You said what?!

Drek (while you and Ranvi are making a facepalm): I wanted to say allies! ALLIES! There's so little difference between the two words in Twi'leki...! Ever since, I have been banned from Ryloth, so yeah, haven't practised that language either... As for Rodian well... Don't even get me started with that...

Lana: And you don't speak any of the three main Wookiee dialects either?

Drek: Ehm, just as much as I speak Mandalorian...!

Ranvi: Drek, just what in the blazes have you been doing on all our language classes...?

Drek: Weeell... I found a few impressive games on the holonet during the classes and we were all having datapads with us sooo... It just happened okay...?!

Lana: You are impossible Drek...

Drek: Who needs to learn languages these days anyway?! We have protocol droids and specialised datapads that can translate from almost any communication form!

Ranvi: Let's just check our rooms, shall we...? Later on, we could hit the beach and swim a little!

Lana: Sure thing!

Inside this tree house of the hotel, there are only 3 rooms, one for each of you. Each tree has a section of the hotel with a few rooms, to ensure privacy for those who stay inside them. The rooms are luxurious, yet somewhat conservative with the wooden decorations. As you get to check the balcony, a beautiful view lays in front of your eyes, it directly faces the shore. There are numerous species on the beach, some are sunbathing, others swimming in the water. You see a Togruta on the beach that looks just like Ahsoka! That would be too much of a coincidence, wouldn't it? Looking around, you find your room is the most elevated of the three of yours, so nobody has a view onto your balcony, neither any branches above or around it to block the sunshine. Which gives you a few ideas for later...
