Artinan Neim was sitting on the floor throwing dice against the wall when Queen Eliorae Latona Panteer returned to the Basilaron. She had been gone for just over two standard hours. Alderaan’s leader had tasked him with defending the ship against any more boarders, so he had remained in the lobby that connected the ship’s egress ramp with the rest of the ship. The boarding party they had dealt with earlier seemed to have been their only invading force, leaving Artinan with little to do. The white-skinned Twi’lek’s attention quickly waned after she had left, and he had gone back to counting the sixes that appeared on his weighted dice.
