A surprise visitor arrives at the Reactor Core; an early morning communique goes out, and the team gathers around the bar. “I am very pleased to introduce,” the Baron announces, “Compatriot! She has exciting news for us.”

Compatriot stands, looking at each one in turn. In a clear voice she speaks. “The Alliance to Restore the Republic has seen your efforts to fight tyranny on Balmorra, and truly appreciate what you have done. Alliance High Command has decided to formally recognize this team as the Bin Prime Resistance. Know that you are not alone - there are countless groups like you with one common goal: overthrow corruption and evil, and restore justice, peace, and prosperity for all in the galaxy!”

She looks directly at Brown Fox. “Everyone who fights for the Alliance does so out of their own free will. Slavery is not tolerated, and we have committed to tirelessly work to free the captive species. I have a friend on your homeworld. Know that your family is currently safe, but still under the iron grip of the ISB. We are working on a solution but it will take time.”

She turns back to the others. “The Alliance has also sent gifts - small tokens of our gratitude, and it symbolizes our support of you.”

The party claps and Compatriot grins as the Baron gives her a quick hug. “A rather melodramatic speech, but thank you.”

She shakes her head humorously, “Well, I learned from the best. I am glad this worked out - I have to go, but I'll keep in touch.”

Compatriot briefly greets each one individually, shaking hands and telling of her appreciation. She is very sincere, and meets everyone's eyes. “There is much darkness ahead. May the Force be with you, and with us all.”

It turns out her statement was exceedingly accurate…
