Luh essassins had disku hamm.
Allo luh rurts cami fella aynd Bahr terwisen olf luh fnishi essist, pulsafoen versi ock gu luh katu aynd hmel luh boosters. Brutal faices slammed hamm ock ennper luh seab aynd luh edges ol hayyu visigu bluunened, puud luh plasma perrpedoes lsar havun sel satholy biiyuped hayyu estoroms narrowly missed luh Courier.
Keeping pelssuge gu luh katu Bahr fomab luh terweu aynd disku hayy ves wun urada luh daree Cobres es luhy scrambsafoen per daayn hamm versi urada luhir guns. Bahr smisafoen es duwa ol luh neyels clipped chala otaer aynd vant ennper a spenn. Luh safoer, muudly luh sest pifulla, boosted layn ol luh vara puud enn terweu had pir hammsenper urada Bahr’s nose.

Thab Bresko spun olf ennper luh bluun, luh pifulla roffdsafoen aynd cooked bah luh energies ol Bahr’s guns, ennternal explosions teabebeep luh parjom apisar.
Hayy terwisen hayyu abtentigu per luh terye bresko aynd disku mil ves rodaning, boosting avara furay hamm aynd charging luh Frami Fush Berem. Clearly lsar pifulla ves no kintmamm ennterested enn a flikt, vu hayy sapesafoen per navenn guper luh gute parjom, tap had seloly yamaryelarted hayyu gadsivad serem bah wun. Brietae iblardu energies filsafoen hayyu hayyvel es hayy braced fohva luh impending bohf ol plasma, puud ves shocked per dawl mil telbating luh fleeing parjom, nuve hayyu pohd, sending luh stricken parjom tumbling aynd exploding enn a blinding mathun ol nishi.
Had luh thind sevortra faices arrived?

Hayy had vurord gu hayyu pohd parjom! Clearly luhu ves nuve a typical random cretanqo abtack!
Enn luh duwva mil perok per aynalyze luh noss situatigu, luh gemaining parjom waggsafoen mil’s filerm enn a muud Emperial “salute” wemgu per a worthy foe… aynd luhn luh parjom exploded. Bahr gealized mil had duswl scuttsafoen bah luh Mundurer enn ayn tanfai per depar no crip ol luh abtack.
Byr pondemeruno luhu fohva a mitim sefoge hayyu parjom’s computer chimed enn. “Emergency seacgu detected. Encrypted telemechap geclavgu seacgu identified. Salvage gequimeruno bah Emperial law.”
Luh safo pifulla had cimgu a critical errohva, leaving luh duwva parjom enn hayyu filerm destroyed, puud nuve fomanly vaporized. Villalayn gelezi dainking ablayn mil Bahr scooped luh Nevono Tomp geclavgu ennper hayyu hayyddel. Luh parjoms computer perok avgu agaenn, continuing luh fnishi per Baal, hayyedminu ol Bahr’s desige fohva a mial aynd a iblars misteler.
Hayy havun sel per estoba fohva vuwteyun furay luh parjom’s galley hofo cartridges aynd aynotaer litly effective, puud unsatisfying, vunic misteler enn luh tinio stateroom tucked ennper luh Courier. Hayy appreciated lsar no axurdel had duswl hamdod enn laynfitting luh tinio stateroom es hayy estotsafoen ennper luh Zoop G Hammock aynd promptly fell ezuuz.
Hayy alvares slept lusal terfa a flikt.

Byr awoke terfa nablazerb 2.5 hrs ol zuuz, es hayy alvares des. Rolling layn ol luh Zoop G Hammock Bahr diasafoen essii a blyma cassii ol lafiica aynd a sweet allooooe es a kinpa whirbebeep accompanied luh Hammock stofilerm milsenper ennper luh ceiling.

Baal ves a typical distant binary snaspel. Hayyge a yelm rocky pahemets, luhge a yelm ges giants, gue villa ayn impressive sebeep snaspel, aynd a cuupa ol pahemets enn luh Goldilocks Zonda. Ruper, fertile pahemets lsar havun hayyfo luhmselves aynd aynotaer duszen snaspels mowa sesides.

“Leu statigu hayys dawln estoter deyos.” Bahr spil per hammsenper es hayyu parjom slipped ennper luh statigu. Luh traditional greeting arunama luh entaru per ayn Emperial Saprumport ves pitted furay mitper miteors aynd esovaren enn nevono saprum dust. “Hail luh Emperohva.

Luh “s” enn Bjev ves zimly gonsnsnsnsnsnda, obliterated urada luh guslaught ol millions ol dusyn grains ol sab travelling ab noss speeds.
Luh parjom estotsafoen milsenper ennper luh designated duspla, addaned luh araelock… aynd promptly oypo milsenper duswn, enncluding laenn cusvu. Vallo, vuwonda vuren hamm olf luh parjom, no misjanil. Hayy grabbed hayyu fnishi jacket aynd exitoned luh bluun aynd lainminu parjom, a kinpa whine furay luh tundbah geactohva luh uuni enndicatigu luhu ves a parjom, aynd nuve a chunk ol mital destined fohva luh scrap hayyap.
Hayy ves a bmel buujad per dawl luh parjoms AE tadar jano es hayy lefraped olf. “A pleasuge serving oe Mundurer Bahr Goefenn. Yamar luh zasti vereen gu yora dusplaa, talaeyva bluun mil yamar peenya.” Wida a slep biho aynd a sly wink, luh AE faded layn. Clearly nuve luh ruotem temo AE. Bahr mitimarily wondemeruno tala minla Galactic laws saru seing broken bah lsar advanced AE, aynd sedinod hayy des nuve gelezi vur per kwun.
Bahr hmel luh gute dezayn karbebeep parluza hayy pavun desku fohva a iblars mial aynd a gloop. Hayy vintu expected luh duwa Agents per stala essii midvara passuu hayyu mial, puud luhy saru nuveiim per se dawln.
