Taris, Small Cantina in the skyscraper district.
Fingers moved in a familiar pattern straining slightly as they ebbed and flowed with the music. Pulling vibrations from the strings, pulling emotion out of the air and floating into the ears of the small audience. This was Jakk's favorite part. He was finishing his musical set with an instrumental. Beings often neglected the power of music without lyrics. With the lyrics out of the way, it allowed for each person to interpret what was being communicated.
As the climax and the ending of the song approached, Jakk looked up from his instrument to the small audience. Several people were totally engulfed in the music emotion plain on their faces. It was a mixed crowd. There were many guests here just to listen to the local music, while there were others here for the food. Still, near the bar, there was a stereotypical group that always seems to be close where there is alcohol.
Jakk was looking for someone with a ship. He had been playing nightly hoping to make a connection with a captain who can take him off-world. He was ready to explore. He was ready to meet people and see the state of the galaxy.
With a final flourish, his fingers thrummed one final chord into the air. He paused, and the audience clapped. With a warm smile, Jakk bowed, stepped off the stage, and looked around to see if anyone of interest was in attendance.
