Hardened shell, empty purse, troubled mind (D6 EM)

Blai sat in front of his extended set of Cargo Clothing for the third time - this time wearing only the boxers he had slept in... for luck, he thought with a nervous grin.
The black and red pyramid he'd found among his things sat on the nightstand by his bed, and he stole one and another look at it while he worked. It was... ominous, to say the least. He'd been worried since he since saw it... and Katarzyna's quick answer had not helped easen these worries at all. There was some curiosity as well, of course... but he'd refrained from even touching it unnecessarily. He felt he wanted to know more about it... but mainly, he wanted answers. Did that, and their weird meeting at the factory, mean Alderaan itself was in danger, in some way?
He remembered the girl that was always by Jameela. Lana. An Imperial Envoy. Maybe he should take a chance to speak to her, after all....
... but later. First he wanted to hear the Jedi on that. And they still had to find out what to do with the hounds... help them, if possible.
... but he was losing focus. First and foremost, this bloody set of armour inserts. He *knew* he could do this, if he could just focus on setting these plasteel plates correctly...
Elur looked curiously at him now and then, his brow furrowing and his eyes squinting as he tried to set the plates right, looked at the clothes as if judging his work, removed them and tried to place them correctly again and again.
A rather long time later, he looked at the clothes, his brow finally unfurrowing a bit. A small smile sprouted in his lips. This time it didn't look terrible!
He put it on, moved around a bit. It didn't get stuck in awkward positions, apparently. It didn't prevent him from bending. He'd finally done it!
Now just a Sith artifact, dark mutated hounds and a possible secret sith presence in the planet to deal with. All good!
...erm...
