True to her word, she had promised her sister she would help the other stragglers. She didn't exactly trust them, no, but Sister's word was absolute. She would prove she could be trusted, and then sister would love her! At least a little. She saw someone- he was talking to himself, but the words he was speaking made no sense to her. She stepped out of the shadows and approached calmly.

"Are you lost as well- ah, I mean-" She hadn't meant to imply she was lost. "Are you new?" She tried to correct herself and sound as if she herself was not at all lost. It didn't work so well, though.

He started to bring his blaster up almost reflexively, but once he got a better look at the girl who'd just spoken, Davin relaxed a bit and dropped it back to pointing at the ground.

Maybe he really was hallucinating. Trees and girls had both been pretty high up on the list of things he missed since getting posted to Tatooine, after all.

"I'm very lost," he admitted, his confusion obvious even through the mechanical voice filter of his helmet.

"Don't point that at me," she said crossly, looking ruffled. "The enemies are elsewhere. My sister sent me to protect the other people who are lost." She sounded quite proud of this mission, and even looked a bit confident when she spoke.

"There's a village up ahead with no people in it, so we should all head there. I guess you don't have anyone else with you."

-- okay, then again, maybe if he was hallucinating about girls, you'd think he'd come up with one who was a little more...easy-going, right?

This got weirder by the minute.

"Do you know where we are? There shouldn't be a forest within at least fifty light years of Tatooine, but this..."
