Mos Eisley, Tatooine, 1600 Hours.
The sand was crisp underfoot. The air was stale and dusty. The people were rugged, some vile. This was Mos Eisley. A destination known for being perhaps the seediest place this side of the Jundland Wastes, at least to the criminal populace of the world and the galaxy. But to the normal citizens of the desert world, Mos Eisley might as well had been what Coruscant used to be to them. It was huge, and much more luxurious compared to most other little towns. You could do many things in Mos Eisley. You could buy a speeder, you could eat at a fancy restaurant, you celebrate special occasions, you could do many things here. But Lyon wasn't here to buy a speeder, or eat well, or celebrate. He was here to start a new life for himself.
Standing outside the Mos Eisley Spaceport, Lyon looked up into the sky as the old Juri-class transport headed off into space, and with it, he was left here. Not a Mandalorian Warrior, but a lost soul looking for that special missing thing within him that everyone needed. What was it? He didn't know. He hadn't a clue what he was in need of. The only thing he knew is that to find it, he needed to leave his family and search for it. And his gut told him that chances were, he'd find it here on Tatooine.
Lyon had rented a speeder, and had loaded it up with the few belongings of his he had brought with him. A couple of weapons, his winter gear, and his buy'ce. All he wore now was a set of Mandalorian beskar'gam without the helmet, and covering it, a brown robe, not unlike one the Jedi Knights of old used to wear. With his hood up, Lyon started the speeder slowly forward, cruising through the city. He had been in big cities before, including Coruscant, before it was destroyed by the dar'jetii. He had even been to Tatooine once or twice before, but never had he stayed long. Not as long as he was about to.
After some perusing through the streets, Lyon pulled to the side of the path and stopped beside a synthetic stone building with an Aurebesh sign that read PROPERTY BROKER. This was his stop. He hopped over the door and through the open top of the landspeeder, and walked on into the store, while paying some attention to the Jawa pair that eyed the speeder greedily. The inside of the building was as expected: dull and unattractive. There was a small desk at the end of the dark room with a Twi'lek woman, around the age of sixteen probably, sitting at it.
Lyon approached it, nodding to the young girl who looked up at him. "I need to talk to the Broker." Lyon stated. He didn't have an appointment. "Take a seat and he'll be with you as soon as he can." The girl replied, pointing over to one of the little seats by the wall. Lyon nodded, and sat down in one of the seats, hanging his head but leaving his eyes open, deep in thought.
