"Good luck, all of you," Iust said and then strode out of the apartment. He had little time to spare and was anxious to bring his fued with Graka to a close. Making it back to his ship Iust made a few adjustments and set off back for Ord Mantell.

Gunther couldn't help but give a small laugh. "That is quite all right, Lady Vera,"
"And yes. We have some materials here you may use, as well, Vera." Kalnar said cheerily. "Feel free to use anything you need as you see fit,"
"And, good luck to you as well, Sir Iust," Gunther said.

"Thank you very much, Master," Vera bowed and moved to find the workbench. She removed some of the parts she had salvaged from her old lightsaber from a pouch on her belt and set to work.

"My family has a safehouse on Aduba Three," Gunther said. "My sister knows to come there in case of emergency,"
"Very good," Kalnar said. "Then, as soon as we're done here, we should journey there."

Vera had the parts from several lightsabers that she'd recovered, and was wondering how to best put them to use. Time was pressing, so she worked quickly, but also experimented. There was a metal shaft that she could use, but she didn't find it particularly comfortable to hold. Instead she pulled off the grip of her G-3HJ blaster rifle and mounted that on top of the shaft, into which she inserted the two rechargable power sources she'd scavenged. With the lightsaber so far positioned this way, by holding the grip, the shaft ran along her arm.
But already the day was drawing to a close, and Vera realized she'd have to rest soon before continuing to build her new weapon. Not before making some minor adjustments of course...

Gunther looked on in silence as Vera worked on her saber. With a slight flush to his features, he queried, "Are you holding out allright, Lady Vera?"

Vers smiled, as she always seemed to do, and turned to him. "I was wondering when you'd speak up, Gunther... " she put aside her tools and turned her body around, leaning back against the work bench and resting her elbows on it. "I'm alright, Gunther. How are you?"

"I am well, ma'am," Gunther said. He flushed some, as he laid eyes on Vera. She's beautiful! "Though the day is long, and we should rest,"
Looking to the other room, he added, "Master Kalnar just had his evening tea, and is meditating before rest," And, with a pause, he queried, "Would you like to join me in some tea?"

Vera blinked at him, realization dawning on her face. Her smile thinned, but her tone remained just as pleasant. "I would be honored to join you, Gunther." She bowed a bit, subconsciously checking that her blaster pistol was in its holster as she did so.

Gunther gave a slight bow. "Thank you, ma'am," he said, holding out his hand. "May I?" he asked sheepishly.

Vera stared at his hand a moment before smiling at him. "Well... i just need to put my things away... i'll meet you at the kitchen table in just a second!" She then twirled around and began putting all of the tools away and organizing the parts she had set out.

"Ah, ok," Gunther sheepishly said. With that, he then set to the next room, where it seemed that Iria had already made some tea.
He then took a seat near the calmly meditating Kalnar, and began to drink. "Long day," he sighed, yet managing to smile at Iria.

Vera joined them soonafter, take a seat slightly closer to Iria than gunther. "Hello, Iria!" she smiled. Ebony was also in the room, and she tootled quietly as she chatted with the food console. Vera took a long sip of teah and breathed deeply.

"Good evening, Master Vera," Iria smiled back to her. "How goes your progress?" she eagerly asked.

Vera placed a warm hand on her page's shoulder and squeezed a bit, letting it linger. "As well as could be expected. I'm taking some shortcuts, and also using a rather... unorthadox design. But it is progressing well. I should be done in another day or two. Hopefully the former, for the sake of time." She pulled her hand away to cup her mug of tea as she took another sip.
