Quin wasn’t surprised that Elidan had never heard of Agrovale— the place really didn’t have a name except for what the locals had given it. Whoever was in charge of Naboo’s tourism industry certainly wouldn’t be advertising a few crime-ridden streets at the edge of the city. As for Elidan’s comment about Jakku, the knight could only smile.
“I hope so too,” he responded, looking over at his friend. At the very least they would be able to explore the place together this time.
“Nope. All I know is what she told us… so not a lot.” Quin gave Elidan a sideways smile. “You could be right about that. Hutts do tend to be behind a lot more than you’d expect.” He’d almost met Nor’baal himself once, though he was glad that he hadn’t in the end.
A while later, the two Jedi would find themselves at the gates of Agrovale. They weren’t “gates” per se, but it was obvious that one side was the Theed that was advertised while just across the street was the unspoken-of crime sector. The latter side looked gray and bland, trash littering the streets, not at all like the elegant blue-green rooftops and sprawling architecture that characterized the rest of the city.
“This is it,” said Quin, glancing over at Elidan. Then at Nyssa. “Do you think it would be a good idea to bring her in?” He was a little concerned considering that the poachers who had killed her mother most likely hung out here, but surely they wouldn’t dare to attack when she was with two Jedi knights. “I can arrange for her to be picked up if it would be safer.”
His parents wouldn’t mind. Probably.
