Celeste hadn't immediately fallen asleep, but it had given her some time to mediate and to reflect. Being back on Rattatak was actually a weird feeling, especially because no one was aware that she was here, not even Everett, her ex bodyguard and someone who had been nothing but loyal to her.
Now that the tides had turned, she actually wondered who'd still behind her...and who'd learn about all that anyway. Rattatak was not contested terriority, but officially still FWA and the unrests could potentially escalate if she couldn't step in quickly...Would all of the work and effort she had invested be in vain?
Right now, Celeste was entrusted with running the Shipwright's Guild on Lantillies and while it had felt good to be back in business and ensure that the planet would thrive under Imperial rule, she had grown a bit antsy about Rattatak. Soon, she repeatedly told herself and after some more time she had finally managed to sleep.

Celeste felt Arla move rather early and she let her rise alone for now. Celeste knew she needed to concentrate for the tracking and so she send some messages back and forth with Lantillies, until she climbed out of the tent and quietly started deconstructing their provisional camp. When Arla mentioned that she got a lead, she turned to her with a smile, stuffing the last bedroll in her backpack and offering her a fruity protein snack afterwards. "Awesome. Then let's get going". Those were actually good news and Celestes spirits were high. If the lead was really promising, they could already acquire the pups today.
