Malfon followed Avaran to the two starfighters on the outskirts of the ghost town. Avaran stepped into Volef's fighter, as though it had been intended for his use all along. The thought made Malfon's blood boil. Wordlessly, Malfon boarded his own, and the two of them left the planet. While he was in orbit and preparing his hyperdrive, Malfon considered the repercussions of escaping. It was not too late. He could still leave this behind, return to Coruscant, and recruit his friends and mentors to help him stop this insanity. Despite knowing that whatever Avaran was planning would mean that he would have to suffer, something kept him from readjusting his hyperdrive computer. This was his burden. He would not bring others down with him.
